China Eastern Airlines crash likely to be result of deliberate nosedive, report says
Sky News says the crash of a China Eastern Airlines jet might have been deliberate, according to a US report.
The Boeing 737-800 crashed into the mountains of Guangxi on 21 March during a flight from Kunming to Guangzhou.
All those on board – 123 passengers and nine crew members – were killed.
Late on Tuesday, the Wall Street Journal reported that flight data from one of the plane’s black boxes indicated that someone in the cockpit intentionally crashed the jet.
The report cited people familiar with a preliminary assessment done by US officials, adding that there was no evidence so far of technical problems with the aircraft.
