WSJ: After a Year, No Explanation Found for China Eastern Airlines Crash Investigation
The investigation into the China Eastern Airlines crash a year ago, which killed 132 people, is still ongoing, according to Chinese aviation authorities. However, there has been no comment on the possible cause of the accident. An initial assessment from US officials suggested that the crash was a deliberate dive. The Boeing 737-800 was flying from Kunming to Guangzhou when it began a near-vertical descent during a high-altitude cruise and crashed into a hillside at high speed. The investigation is ongoing as China continues to examine the incident in-depth.
