As a private pilot I make no claim as to commercial skills. But in every airline flight of many thru the years, upon reaching a predetermined waypoint the PIC begins his approach. The very first thing he does is reduce throttle setting, reduce engine rpm. Then he or she lowers the airplane’s nose and establishes a glide. What the PIC in this case did, entering a dive at cruise speed was stupid, careless and insane.IMHO.

“The less-experienced first officer “inadvertently” pushed forward on the control column before cutting the speed, causing the airplane to descend rapidly.”

With that the writer looses all credibility.

Maybe it was a helium leak or a door plug popping off or some hidden control the pilots find out only if the airliner buys the updated manual.

400 feet from the ocean.
The Boeing length of Boeing 737 Max 8 is about 129 feet...
