"The plane did what was ordered by someone in the cockpit":
According to a report in the Wall Street Journal, data in the black box of a Boeing 737 that crashed in southern China about two months ago, killing 132 people, indicates a deliberate dive by the pilot .
Among other things, according to published documentation, the plane was sailing at high altitude when it suddenly plunged extremely fast into the mountains.
"The plane did what was ordered by someone in the cockpit," said an American source who received the information extracted from the black box.
Watch the plane crash:
The same source also said that the Chinese authorities leading the investigation did not point to the mechanical problems in the plane that was involved in the crash.
According to him, the model of the plane is considered very safe.
Among other things, according to the same source, there is another possibility that a passenger plane burst into the cockpit and caused a deliberate crash.
There is also a possibility that someone else on the plane could have broken into the cockpit and caused an intentional crash, these people said.
In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Chinese airline China Eastern
claimed that "there was no evidence that could determine if there were any problems with the plane involved in the accident."
When the flight crew was asked about a possible intrusion into the cockpit, she noted that "such a scenario is unlikely".
A Chinese plane carrying 133 passengers crashed on March 21 in the southern province of Guangxi province.
A China Eastern Airlines plane en route to the province from southwestern Kunming has crashed in the mountains of the province.
It was also reported that the crash, which occurred shortly after takeoff, also caused a fire at the site.
