Summary

A Jeju Air Boeing 737-800 crashed at Muan International Airport, South Korea, killing 179 people, with only two crew members surviving. The black boxes stopped recording four minutes before the crash.

Authorities are investigating the cause of the malfunctioning black box. They suspect a bird strike, as feathers were found in one engine, and video footage confirmed a bird impact. However, the exact cause of the crash remains elusive.

Investigators are probing why the landing gear wasn’t deployed, the role of power failure in missing black box data, and the construction of the airfield wall the plane hit.

        I know you joke, but likely not far from the truth. I was talking about misleading sensors, and this is an example of that - either my client didn’t get a response from the server indicating that the comment was received and retried, or my server didn’t get a response on OP’s server. Either way miscommunication happened, and the result (repeated comments, and from what I can see received at different times too) is much worse than the desired result (one comment entry only).

      I didn’t, but now I’m paranoid that whatever caused the comment to be sent multiple times is still going on 😅
