New information has come to light concerning the Polish plane crash that killed the main figures of Poland's government, including its President.
According to investigative reporter Jane Burgermeister, the black box indicates no mechanical issues with the plane and no interference on the part of Poland's President to force a landing of the plane against the wishes of the pilot.

In addition, there is no indication at all from the recovered record that the plane attempted several landings, as reported by Russian officials. The plane attempted to land only once.
Discrepancies also exist with regard to claims by Russian officials regarding crash logistics, the ability of the pilot to speak Russian, and other official statements that do not square with the facts.

In his haste to cover up everything Putin made a big mistake!
“The readjusted the becon lower so the plane was 100 feet low on approach.”
It is SOP to cross check crossing altitudes at the Final Approach Fix with the aircraft’s altimeter. If it was an ILS or Localizer approach, the subsequent decent altitudes on the approach are based solely on aircraft baro altitude (and maybe on the aircraft’s radar altimeter if it has one) and not any ground-based radio signal.
On missing fact for me is where was the crash site in relation to the path on the published approach they were supposed to be flying.
How come this video is still up??? Just watched it. It seems clear they executed the survivors...and then the guy who did the video - so weird that video is still online. Any thoughts?
Which ones? The ones that are dead? You realize that the top brass of all of their military and the President of the Central Bank went down too, right?
So forgive me for being skeptical of those remaining.

errr...where were you these last 2 years? Never noticed how fast Obama can “scrub out” any video he does not like??? You are so cute. Well may be the russians don’t know that yet - hard time to believe that but all is possible.
Speculation is to weak of a word.
Well, nothing will come of this, I suppose, but it’s as well to know what really happened.
Putin is a scum. And stupid, because the last thing Russia needs is to get involved in empire building, when they can’t even produce enough children to ensure the continued existence of Russia itself.
Certainly Obama will do nothing. In fact, he will be secretly pleased if he is briefed on this. But he’s probably too busy playing golf to bother with regular briefings.
After Ron Brown’s plane crashed, the airport flight director mysteriously committed Arkancide.
If you two want to believe that there were only 100 loyal Polish officials you are free to hold that opinion. I’ll remain skeptical of that.
Revenge for what, 1923?
Unless the Russians called out the wrong pressure to reset the altimeter???
Given the implication made in the video that this was a way to force Poland into the collective economic basket with the EU 0-butler-king probably told Putin to go for it. He’s trying to break us so that we can be sold into a global economic system.
Meaconing the GPS signal.
Never said it didn’t happen. I question the story that they would ever have made such a big ooopsie as to leave the black box and let the information on it out to the public.

You can’t fake the voice recorders and data recorders without a lot of time.. besides having the recorders show pilot error is desirable... my thoughts are not that the ILS glideslope generator was nudged down as the BB would show the plane on-slope when it hit the ground... what if we’re talking old fashioned needles and not a glass cockpit ... wouldn’t a slight extra resistance or extra voltage have the desired effect ... show the plane getting above slope and have the pilot crash the plane? The visibility was BAD BAD ,,if he didn’t “land hard” he would have aborted at decision height.
