AirAsia Flight Climbed and Stalled Right Before
Crash

• Heres a recent event by which it is very
  interesting to hear the views of aviation safety
  consultants. A top Indonesian official said on
  Tuesday that AirAsia Flight QZ8501 climbed
  rapidly and stalled just before it crashed.
• Transportation Minister Ignasius Jonan told news
  agencies Reuters and AFP that the plane did
  indeed stall in a parliamentary hearing.
• "The plane, during the last minutes, went up
  faster than normal speed ... after then, it
  stalled. That is according to the data from the
  radar," Jonan said, according to the news
  agencies.
•  
• The plane was said to have climbed at speeds of
  6,000 feet per minute according to Jonan.

• To put this into perspective, an F/A-18 Super
  Hornet can travel at speeds of up to 30,000 feet
  per minute. The only problem is that commercial
  planes were designed to travel at much slower
  speeds. Aviation service providers and their
  pilots are aware of these limitations so there
  must have been something more.
•  
• According to the latest reports from analysts and
  experts, the ill-fated AirAsia plane, an Airbus
  A320, was climbing at a rate much faster than it
  could and should on its own. This might have
  meant that they must have been encountering
  really bad weather and strong winds during the
  flight.

Crash

• The commercial jet lost contact with air traffic
  controllers on December 28 as it flew from the
  Indonesian city of Surabaya toward Singapore with
  162 people on board.
• It has been said even from the first few hours
  since the crash that weather might have been the
  reason for the crash. If they were travelling at
  speeds of 6,000 feet per minute then they might
  have been caught in an updraft and their readings
  might have been rather confusing to the pilot and
  co-pilot, according to aviation safety
  consultants.
