[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] And, yes, planes have been brought down by turbulence before. A British 707 did in the 1960s and more recently that Air France crash in 2009. [/quote] Turbulence definitely did not bring down the AF fight. It was pilot error. In a nutshell, they got into a bad situation but one that was manageable if they had followed the correct procedures. But they didn't and on top of that weren't communicating with each other and were both trying to control the plane in opposing ways effectively cancelling each other out.
