    bird strike taking out both engines? nah.

    This has to be pilot error. Even at stall, it looks like pilot didn’t even try to level out.

      They were like less than 200m from the ground. There was literally no space to recover from the stall. You need some altitude to pitch the nose down and recover from a stall.

      Why not? That’s the reason Sully had to land on the Hudson.
