They discovered that the tail section had broken off.The pilot had been trying to control the aircraft in turbulence and had been too heavy footed on thebecause it was soon after 9/11 this story didn't make the massive headlines it would normallyhttps://community.betfair.com/chit_chat/go/thread/view/94038/30953685/programme-last-night-about-the-crash-of-an-airbus-380?post_id=552962053#552962053because it was soon after 9/11 this story didn't make the massive headlines it would normallySat, 14 Oct 2017 06:24:23 -0500Must read the whole thread first...https://community.betfair.com/chit_chat/go/thread/view/94038/30953685/programme-last-night-about-the-crash-of-an-airbus-380?post_id=552961363#552961363Must read the whole thread first...Sat, 14 Oct 2017 03:55:06 -0500It wasn't a A380, one of those is yet to crash, it'll make a big bang when it does.https://community.betfair.com/chit_chat/go/thread/view/94038/30953685/programme-last-night-about-the-crash-of-an-airbus-380?post_id=552961361#552961361It wasn't a A380, one of those is yet to crash, it'll make a big bang when it does.Sat, 14 Oct 2017 03:53:02 -0500They also didn't mention your point about the tail fixings being weakened by previous careless rudder use? A glaring omission. Based on their own conclusions this would be an obvious possibility.https://community.betfair.com/chit_chat/go/thread/view/94038/30953685/programme-last-night-about-the-crash-of-an-airbus-380?post_id=552961353#552961353They also didn't mention your point about the tail fixings being weakened by previous careless rudder use?

I suspect that the official explanation was agreed to be pilot error to avoid the massive insurance payouts and consequent effect on American Airlines and Airbus.

Yes sometimes we can't eliminate pilot error after all, that's why we should not think we can eliminate pilot error in how they use the rudder pedals in certain circumstances The differenhttps://community.betfair.com/chit_chat/go/thread/view/94038/30953685/programme-last-night-about-the-crash-of-an-airbus-380?post_id=552961299#552961299pp says that aircraft stall and crash if pilots make an error.
