New Data Suggests Possible Intentional Action in 2022 China Plane Crash

(MENAFN) Newly released information has raised questions about the 2022 crash of a China Eastern Airlines Boeing 737-800 that killed all 132 people on board, according to reports.

Over four years after the aircraft went down in a mountainous area of southern China’s Guangxi region, the cause of the disaster has still not been officially determined by China’s Civil Aviation Administration (CAAC), despite it being one of the deadliest aviation accidents in the country in recent years.

A media outlet reported that newly analyzed data “appears to indicate that someone in the cockpit may have intentionally switched off the fuel supply to the engines” before the aircraft’s sudden descent.

Information cited from the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) suggests that both engine fuel switches were turned off at the same time shortly before the Boeing 737-800 began its rapid plunge.

The data was retrieved from the aircraft’s flight data recorder, which was recovered from the crash site and later analyzed at the NTSB laboratory in Washington, DC.

The findings have renewed scrutiny over the circumstances of China Eastern Airlines flight MU5735’s crash in March 2022, though no final determination has been publicly confirmed by Chinese authorities.
