Pet peeve: when the media calls a plane falling out of the sky a "crash."
- from the article: videos posted online showed a plane spiraling as it dropped from the sky.
- passenger planes don't simply drop out of the sky -- but yes, when they hit the ground, it's a crash, but the initial problem was not "crashing into terrain."
- the initial problem was falling out of the sky -- cause unknown
- I would assume radio communications will explain a lot; I could be wrong; we'll see. In fact, "no" radio communications before suddenly falling out of the sky will also be quite noteworthy
- Reddit got it correct: "a plane with 62 passengers just fell..."
