Ah, but what's their story as to why the plane crashed?

[–] lasagna@programming.dev 13 points 2 years ago

It fell off a window.

The plane was depressed and committed suicide. Such is life in Russia.

The plane actually jumped out of a hotel window and landed on some unexploded ordnance

Videos show it missing a wing while dropping like a stone from the clouds.

It goes without saying but missing a wing is one of the main things that planes are designed never to do, so either they didn't catch the part where the wing exploded or you've got some serious sabotage going on
