A prominent DC lawyer who died earlier this month after traveling on a corporate jet did not pass away from severe turbulence as originally reported.
Earlier this month, Dana Hyde, a prominent DC lawyer who served in the Clinton and Obama Administrations was killed while flying over New England in a business jet.
The business jet carrying five passengers made an emergency landing at Bradley International Airport in Connecticut.

Hyde, 55, was rushed by ambulance to a hospital in Hartford, Connecticut on Friday where she was pronounced dead.
Hyde also served as a lawyer on the 9/11 commission.
The FAA originally reported the business jet hit severe turbulence, however an investigation revealed the pilots flipped a switch and disconnected a system used to stabilize the plane.
According to investigators, Dana Hyde died after the plane “turned nose-up at several times the force of gravity.”

Investigators said Friday a former Obama-era official traveling on a corporate jet was fatally injured after pilots disconnected a system used to stabilize the aircraft, causing it to abruptly pitch up.
The National Transportation Safety Board said the pilots were responding to several warnings in the cockpit of the Bombardier jet that diverted to a Connecticut airport March 3. They followed a checklist and turned off a switch that “trims” or adjusts the stabilizer, a control panel on the plane’s tail.
The plane turned nose-up at several times the force of gravity, then pointed lower before again turning upward before pilots could regain control, the report said.
Pilots told investigators they did not encounter turbulence as the NTSB had suggested in a preliminary assessment the day after the incident.
Last year, the Federal Aviation Administration instructed pilots flying the same model of Bombardier aircraft to take extra preflight measures after trim problems had been reported. Trim problems can be responsible for buffeting or altitude changes.
Bombardier, the jet’s Canadian manufacturer, said it is cooperating with federal investigators and has launched a probe of its own. It told The Associated Press it stands by its aircraft.
Was stewardess Hillary on board?
Is anyone keeping The Clinton Body Count updated?
Yeah, it said right at the end that the Bombadier company is doing an investigation for future reference.
Sounds like a possible runaway trim emergency.
Article makes no sense... Damn near impossible any pitch up maneuver in that aircraft could ever hit 7G...
That old bitch will be killing from the grave.
My son went to USAF pilot training. For stall recovery, they pounded 3 words into their heads. Max-relax-roll. He said every single time he flew the aircraft, they practiced it, along with other emergency procedures. 👍
Gateway pundit.”Reporting” is suspect. Anyways, something happened, lol.
I read the whole article. Unless I missed something, I didn’t see anything that said 7 g’s. So, am I missing something, or am I misunderstanding what you are really trying to say?
Does her hubby have a new gal pal already? LOL
I can’t find the article—but I read that the cover to protect part of the airplane was not removed prior to takeoff and that is what made the plane unstable.
The “do you know who I am” types have no need for seat belts, of course!
Clintons are reaching new highs in suicide.
The plane turned nose-up at several times the force of gravity.. that would be 7G’s
Maybe she was using the bathroom or getting up to use the bathroom.
This is why I always try to use the bathroom before I get onto a commercial airline.
The plane dove, she hit her head
Probably broke her neck
Arkancide? The Clintons were mentioned.
Clot shot, perhaps?
A broken neck is a broken neck.
This article sounds sketchy
It was up close and personal for them as they watched Mom bounce around the cabin.
