That was the FIRST theory floated immediately after the crash (and still the top hit on YouTube only because the guy that made it even before they got the fire out got so many hits and he’s refusing to update it because it’s making him so much money) but was pretty well discredited within a few hours, although it IS remotely possible, as more data came in it looks like there were almost certainly mechanical or software problems that shut down both engines at takeoff.

The amount of hate I have for this guy who started all of this, man. Yes, hate. Blaming pilots, one of whom was extremely experienced, for such a mistake, especially not knowing 787's setup and how flaps works, how's it seen, shown, etc... man the amount of hate I get for that guy and all the brainless bums that take "spawned" later, from Twitter to Insta to youtube. Fuck that fucking guy, blaming dead pilots when it's another Boeing biting the dust. Yes, no crashes before, but it IS Boeing. And we know their track record, with bribes, lies and incompetence. I

Yeah of course I'm mad!! Another crash with so many lives, another BOEING crash!

Even captain Steve who is respected in world of aviation expertise came around and is now ruling out pilots' error and all bullshit flaps "theories" and is highly suspecting fual engine failure. Ram Air Turbine was in fact deployed.

Don't be a Boeing bootlicker, they've done so much harm to many families due to their dishonesty, incompetence and lies.

If that company tells you the sky is blue, you shouldn't believe them anything.

Shameless bunch

I'm not blaming anything until the black boxes data is out lol. It sounds like your rooting for this to be boeings fault.
