@uthighking4: Mach Tuck is not something I expected to learn about… Especially not in this fashion. But it is definitely surreal to me that something like this is possible, and I can’t even imagine the fear that they must’ve been feeling knowing full Well this is where they were headed… Just tragic. ##flight##florida##planecrash##tragedy##unbelivable
Hi, not here to correct you. But it’s not ice. Mach tuck is an aerodynamic phenomenon that occurs when an aircraft approaches or exceeds the speed of sound. As airflow over the wings changes, the aircraft's centre of pressure shifts rearward, creating a nose down pitching force. So this can cause the aircraft to suddenly pitch downward, making it difficult for the pilot to maintain altitude. Mach tuck is one of the reasons high-speed aircraft are designed with features such as swept wings and stabilizing tail surfaces. 😁

Sometime said "I have no fear dying, but dying while being in fear, that's terrifying" and that hit.

Her last words being “we’re out of time” is just haunting me. I couldn’t even sleep last night I just couldn’t stop thinking about it. Just horrific.

This kind of stuff is why I’d fly commercial even if I were rich. I’ll have a seat on the 300million dollar engineering marvel with safety contingencies for just about every conceivable edge case please

It was a fun 27 years of not having plane and flight anxiety. Can’t say I’m gonna be able to sleep on planes like I normally do after this story.

We see horrific tragedies all the time. This is one that feels different and is heavy. I feel so much sadness for them and the families that will hear and see all of it. 😭😭

I’ve looked up Mach Tuck 10 times and I still don’t know what the heck happened. Ice, turbulence and traveling to fast is all I can comprehend.

My question is, a $2 million plane doesn’t have heaters on the lining to defrost ice🤷🏻♀️

When planes make suspicious noises or we experience turbulence I used to comfort myself my telling myself “it’s fine. planes don’t just fall out of the sky. we’re fine.” I fear this tactic will not work for me in the future.

I always thought Learjets and similar jets were safe. No one ever mentioned anything about Mach Tuck.

Horrifying. And the air traffic controller is going to need therapy. He kept calm and right with them to the end,knowing they were doomed. Just heartbreaking.

What’s terrifying is when you know enough pilots to start realizing just how many of these “known issues” exist.

like hydroplaning into a tree. But the pilot has way more time to be terrified 😨

If they were falling that quick so fast, how was she able to still talk to air traffic control? How would she be able to speak if they were falling that fast?

It’s a possibility but it’s extremely rare because planes almost always avoid even being caught into a storm like that. How they ended up in that situation is still being investigated. But I know charter flights are more common to end up in bad flight zones because they don’t get the same amount of weather monitoring as a commercial flight does sometimes
