The Wall Street Journal reveals Flight data indicates someone in the cockpit intentionally crashed China Eastern flight #MU5735.

The Boeing 737-800 was cruising at high altitude when it suddenly pitched into a near-vertical descent, plummeting into a mountain at extreme speed.

Data from a black box recovered in the crash suggests inputs to the controls pushed the plane into the fatal dive according to people familiar with U.S. officials.

On March 21, 2022, the flight MU5735 left Kunming at 1:11 p.m. local time (1:11 a.m. ET) and was due to arrive at its destination in under two hours.
