While investigators work to uncover the precise cause of the crash, several potential factors are under consideration. Modern commercial aviation is renowned for its safety and redundancy, making such events exceedingly rare. Nevertheless, the complexity of aircraft systems—engines, hydraulics, avionics, and control surfaces—means that even minor mechanical malfunctions can have catastrophic consequences. Environmental conditions are another key focus: sudden wind shear, microbursts, or unpredictable storms can overwhelm even the most skilled flight crews. Human factors also remain central to any inquiry, encompassing decisions made by pilots, air traffic controllers, and maintenance teams. No single theory has yet emerged; the investigation will follow the evidence wherever it leads, which may take months or even years. Continue reading…
