I'll put it like this, it doesn't look like the pilots were alive and attempting to glide onto the ground. From the views I've seen, it looks like a 60 degree angle.
Even the fish-eye lens of the Ring Camera has it going in a slight "U" pointed to the right, which means from that angle the plane was going nearly straight down.
And, the speed at which was moving at landing would be unsurvivable.
Even on a plan making an emergency landing, it shouldn't glowing that bright unless it's already on fire.
The size of the resulting explosion suggests that most of the fuel was still inside the aircraft.
The zero-hedge post in this thread includes a ring-door cam (also in Asmon's video), with audio. The audio definitely sounds like the engines are on. They could be at full thrust too. But this would still make sense since they just took off. But it makes it seem like if one of the engines was damaged, you'd hear it. So either something in the plane exploded or the engine completely blew up, caused the stabilizer to be destroyed, and forced the plane into a dive.

Asmongold Clips is where I saw him watching it, just so happened to be the video I saw.

Alright, yeah, hadn't seen that. Was just going off this footage.
Oof. That definitely seems to be near missile-level behavior...but also on fire or something.
It will be interesting to hear - if we're ever told - what exactly happened here. Very strange.

Yup, I saw all that now. Shit is wild. It's also crazy how fast we're getting all this footage this time.
