A 737 crashes, supposedly on drop run into the bush and both crew only minor injuries??
FR24 has GS at 100kts ??
To be fair, this happened late afternoon, down south of Perth. It was 'breaking' on MSM channels as the 6pm bulletin started. By the time anyone would have got reporters down/near there, it would be dark and there were no 'dramatic' pictures to share. Also no pax, you know how fast they stopped giving a sh... about UPS6 because it was 'just' a cargo flight.... media don't really change. If they can't quote someone saying the plane 'plummeted' and 'we was gunna die', there doesn't seem to be much 'interest' except by those in the industry.
I think once these pics hit the news, they'll (at least in Perth) be running them all day.
