Chances that there was a 4th person?

It's possible that someone could be on the coast between Bolivar Peninsula and Holly Beach and no one would know for years.

Until he showed up at Boot Kickers Bingo in Galveston and hollered BINGO in Black Out and didn't really have it...Then he would die...

Press conference imminent. KBMT reporting.

 

Looks like they hit mud flats/shallows. Airboat territory.

 

Omg it was an Amazon prime plane.

 

 

Well shit, looks like I should have ordered Scentsy from Chad Briscoe instead of buying generic wax cubes from Amazon. On the other hand that's probably one of the best smelling crash sites we've had in awhile.

When told about the Amazon prime plane crash, AOC said "good. One less plane to emit carbon, and clearly God is punishing amazon.com for devastating perfectly defenseless Texas estuarine marshland."

So sorry.

Those last few readings get pretty hairy..

I’m not a pilot, but I don’t think a 29,504 fpm vertical speed is normal.

You best have the cast of Swap People with you.

I'd not heard of that show before.  Is that a new reality show series about swingers?

So early speculation time. Equipment failure, pilot error or deliberate? Was there any radio traffic that might give any clues?

Other planes were deviating around weather. I can’t imagine why they’d fly right into a thunderstorm bad enough to bring them down. No mayday calls at all. I’ll go with package bomb or suicidal pilot just for the sensationalism.

Why would a suicidal pilot wait until that close to the destination?  I'll go ahead and throw Aliens, Jeff Skilling, the ghost of Osama Bin Laden and the Tri-Lateral Commission out there as potential suspects.

I believe the jumpseater had just been hired from a regional to a legacy, so likely not his doing.

Easier to nosedive from 6500ft than FL420? I’m grasping.

Would you mind posting a link to where you found the crewmembers names or info?  Or share in a PM if you don't want to post it.

That thing was seconds away from taking out half of Anahuac.

Social network:

CA Ricky Blakely 

FO Conrad Aska

JS Sean Archuleta 

I’m sure their families know by now. The CA was former XJT, the other two were from Mesa. I believe the JS was just hired at UAL, and has a wife and two children in Bogota.  

I didn’t know them, but have a lot of coworkers who did.

C'mon Lat, that's silly speculation.

Everyone knows the odds here...
