A US newspaper has reported that the China Eastern Airlines jet that plummeted into a hillside on March 21, 2022, may have crashed because of an intentional nosedive. The Boeing 737-800 was reportedly directed to go into a nosedive by flight controls in the cockpit, suggesting it was a deliberate act. A victim’s uncle says China Eastern Airlines must give families answers if the report proves to be true. The incident was mainland China’s deadliest air disaster in decades, killing all 132 people on board.
