{{The final moments of the flight of the cargo plane that crashed Monday in Afghanistan, killing all seven crew members, appear to have been captured on a dashboard camera.}}<\/p>\n
The approximately 3-minute video shows what appears to be the Boeing 747-400 jet climbing shortly after takeoff, at 11:20 a.m., from Bagram Airbase.<\/p>\n
But some 12 seconds into the video, the jet appears to stall, rolls from side to side, and drops.<\/p>\n
At 23 seconds, the plane crashes, nose first, into the ground off the side of the road, erupting into a ball of orange flame and black smoke.<\/p>\n
There is no immediate reaction from inside the vehicle. After the driver brings the vehicle equipped with the webcam to a halt, at 1:15 in the video, someone says, “Oh, f***!”<\/p>\n
At 1:33, as the camera shows the vehicle moving once again, a noise can be heard — possibly from a dog. Someone says, “All right, come here. Shh! Shh! Shh!” The yelping stops; the vehicle stops.<\/p>\n
At 2:13 in the video, the vehicle approaches the crash site and stops, the camera once again capturing thick black smoke. The video ends.<\/p>\n
“That’s one dramatic fall out of the sky,” said Arthur Rosenberg, a pilot, engineer and partner with the New York-based law firm Soberman & Rosenberg, which specializes in litigation stemming from plane crashes. “It could have been a rock.”<\/p>\n
He added, “The plane just flat-out stalled. There’s absolutely no question about that.”
\nHe said too much cargo in the rear of the plane is one of several possible causes.<\/p>\n
“It looks to me like the plane pitched up; the most likely cause would be too much load in the rear,” he said in a telephone interview. <\/p>\n
“The plane dropped below minimum controllable airspeed and started to roll.”<\/p>\n
But, he added, “It’s way too early to tell.”<\/p>\n
