Your" Le French are coming sign" doesn't work !!
It should be "Les French are coming"
Or " Les Français are coming"
Or " Les Français s'en viens "
Or bilingually " Les Français s'en viens/ The French are coming "
Or in bon Québecois "Les Français s'en viens hosté " :)

THis is not correct... My born language is French (in Belgium of course).

This is "s'en viens" but "arrivent"

Les Français arrivent = The French are coming

or : Les French arrivent
or : Les French are coming

Jeez guys sorry LOL. I never intended it to be accurate. I was making it and thought it would sound better as Le French rather than The French.

Anyways back to the topic.

"causing the engines to stall", once again typical media has no clue about aviation related subjects.

No offence taken ,Nick . This video will haunt us all .Any aviation enthusiast will have it etched in their mind for the rest of his or her life . News reports ,including some of the aviation ones are ripe with theories and speculation .The only article that I will read about this incident until the official accident report is published is the one on Avherald which is to the point . The official accident report will tell all when it is finally published .

You know, I can't help but think about the investigator who will have to listen to the CVR, if it survived, and create a transcription of same. How do you do that more than once in a career? How do you ever un-hear something like that? Not my first choice as a career field! Ron
