Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

How come the wheels are still down?

As a pilot it looks like plane was coming in to land.

Why do you believe everything the fake news publishes?

It's fake news they said plane was taking off.

Looks like plane was coming in to land gear down descent rate and AOA shows landing.

AOA increases just before crash nose too high going to slow looks like pilot error.

Doesn't look like flaps are in landing/takeoff position either.

I liked flying United they employed ex fighter pilots before that woke garbage infected hiring
