>>1984945
The timing for the power loss to happen matches pretty well with the number of seconds, respectively minutes to overflow since the last power cycle.
I think, there is already an advisory out in that regard, if I'm not mistaken.
>>
>>1984935
>>1984842
It was Boeing. Since 2016 the FAA detected an issue where if the flight control modules have been turned on for 22 days they will turn off so the pilots must have been chilling when suddenly everything turned off, plane took a nose dive, they promptly rebooted the plane, everything turned on and regained control

If the plane decides to turn off by itself midflight then it's a big fucking issue

>>1984637
apparently they are now trying to blame the pilot or a passenger. from https://www.avherald.com/h?article=51601631&opt=0
>Rumors are that a visitor to the cockpit inadvertently pressed the captains seat switch, on the top of the back rest, and caused to seat to move forward, while the captain was sitting crossleged. His leg pressed the control column and caused the autopilot to disconnect and the nose to dip. It took some time to move back, and gain contol. Only a rumor still, but can explain the event.

>>1985253

>>
>>1985253
>a visitor to the cockpit
It was a stewardess, she leant on the pilot's seat and hit a button or something.
The malfunction is that it was supposed to be locked out so it shouldn't have done anything.

There is literally no reason to get on a plane in 2024
>>
>>1985253
why is the pilot sitting cross legged
>>
>>1985253
samefag here. looks like the media already considers this the actual issue, even though apparently there haven't been any news on this
I'm on a conundrum(?) here, because, being chilean myself, I know that chilean people are all liars, and very stupid at that... so the pilot might have been lying or at least deceitful enough to make it seem much worse. but I don't trust the media. some very powerful people would obviously prefer blaming the pilot instead of the manufacturer...

>>1985663
why can't them
>>
I should write a "So, it happened AGAIN" pasta for Boeing.
>>
>>1985668
It's obvious something went wrong in a way that the pilot knew the blame would fall in some way on the cockpit crew, so he just made up a lie in expectation that the incident wouldn't get to any actual investigation or he thought that no one was hurt and the lie would smooth things over. Planes don't just turn off mid air and start diving straight down, even if there is a rollover bug. Everyone knew about it and honestly if you leave the plane running for 23 days straight then I'm not sure what the airline is doing anyway.

>>1984639

if you bumped the yolk forward it would do that

after reading this i think i understand what happened now and what >the plane just froze is supposed to mean
>which could result in control surfaces not moving in response to pilot inputs for a short time
the pilot probably moved the yolk forwards slightly while the plane was "frozen" and when the computers rebooted and the control surfaces could move again the plane then very suddenly and aggressively pitched down for a fraction of a second making negative g forces
>>1985253
absolute horseshit that wouldnt result in anything like this
that wouldve been a sustained nosedive and overspeed not a sudden jolt

I hate to ruin your fun but there is a HUGE industry of fake recruiters offering scam jobs and bait and switch that bank on the fact that everyone is desperate to work at a brand name company and will gladly suspend disbelief in the hopes that this might be that one chance they shouldn't pass up. at best it ends up as the recruiting version of an MLM scheme where there's technically a "job" of some kind, and there's an extremely tenuous connection to the company mentioned, like it's a shop that once had a one-time contract to Big Company. often it's just a straight up identity theft ring or someone trying to build a database of "job seekers" to sell to others

tl;dr the image is basically the third world job seeker version of "hot women in Anonymous Proxy want to have sex with you now", there's approximately 0% that there is even a real job, anywhere, that the advertiser is in a position to fill
