I don't believe this scenario.
It is more likely they want to test what the plane can do and repurpose it.
They probably wanted to kill everyone on board and land it somewhere.
whoever probably was fighting the auto pilot
pushing the yoke down
and the plane was thinking we are losing altitude and kept adjusting for it
The pilot is responsible for the plane, the crew, the passengers and the safety of that aircraft. You have a pilot, co-pilot as well as crew who are responsible for the plane.
The communications were shut down 14 minutes apart from one another and the pilot flew the plane to avoid radar contact which means the pilot has experience and the aerial maneuvers suggests the pilot has a military background. This is not a pilot learning to fly.
The officials are no longer looking at this as an accident. They view this as a hijacking and criminal act.
.
yes however that does not change the possibility of someone fighting an auto pilot
in may actually reinforce the idea
