I honestly can't believe how you can say there's no difference between falling down stalled and a controlled glide! City below you or not.
Blade,
I didn't say that, you did. I merely suggested their options were very limited with both engines out. There may well have been a small chance of putting it down in the river right side up, I do not know.
For what it's worth, I agree with you. Poor aircraft handling skills is becoming a problem, and it may or may not have been a factor in the outcome of this latest accident. At this point, we simply do not know.
