As April is nearing, the topic of Smoleńsk air disaster in 2010 reactivates in Poland 🇵🇱
A year after the crash it was 100% clear that the plane shouldn't even have left Warsaw by law, and certainly shouldn't have attempted landing in dense fog.
It was entirely avoidable, caused by a sequence of risky misjudgements and classified as "controlled flight into terrain".
Report (scroll to bottom for English)
PiS simply rejected three official reports and started a classic Gish gallop, spinning not a single but dozens of half-baked conspiracy theories, and at all the time completely ignoring the primary and fundamental questions: why did the crew simply fly into the ground while talking and ignoring TAWS warnings?
All alternative theories simply pretended none of this ever happened - the plane was lured into an artificial fog, blown up etc etc, as if the cabin recordings never existed.
