The plane did do a 360.
- suyash 13y agoI didn't see a 360, it just tipped to the slide after the nose going up.
- johnpowell 13y agoLife is a bit easier if you aren't as.. Tedious.
- abc_lisper 13y agoLook again. Look at the direction of the wings, they are pointed in reverse for a while, and then you see it doing the other half turn.
- LoganCale 13y agoIt did a 180, spinning around with the nose digging into the ground.
- fnordfnordfnord 13y agoIt turned at least >270. It may have reversed its direction. I'm not sure what the final "heading" of the hull ended up being.
- neurotech1 13y agoIt looked like the wingtip dug in, causing the "flip up", then aircraft slowed, the jet settled back down. If the jet had done a 360, its unlikely the main fuselage would stay together, it would have broken into several large pieces.
- neurotech1 13y agoCorrection: It was an airborne near-360 after the flip up. If the jet had done a 360 on the ground, it wouldn't have stayed together. Still surprising that most passengers survived with minor or no injuries. Sad two young girls died and some received critical or possibly permanent spinal/or and head injuries.
