and you can see the plane pitch up, but in the cabin, whats your reference point? From the video you can see it if you look closely enough, but a camera will never full show it.
I am assuming that Simon was expecting a reaction from passengers at the nose up. This is Nepal. People are accustomed to rough and ready rides. Another comment a few posts back even mentioned his shock at the experience. Knowing many Nepalese people, this is common with steep descent, approaches and turbulence in the region. Only once the wing tipped and the aircraft had stalled, would they have thought anything was different.
back to Occams Razor. Rather than look for what isn’t there, you look for what is.
both the BBC and the Guardian have confirmed it. And without being too graphic, unfiltered Nepalese videos from the scene had already too.
