How does one accomplish that?
Some (media) background:
"pilot error": reported by Reuters, sourced from Beirut, from their correspondent there, attributed to someone close to the team who has access to FDR data. So, it might be actually an (maybe not everybody's) preliminary opinion within the group of people in the center of the investigation.
"exploded": Offered by the Lebanon health minister, because of the state and location of some recovered corpses. He probably made it up.
"no terrorism": As currently nothing points into that direction, and given the general inclination to suspect terrorism and/or consipracy when it comes to airplanes falling from the sky, especially in that region (to witness also in this forum), you'll have to have solid evidence before anybody official will say the opposite.
