I'm going to assume here.. but based on historical data of plane crashes that if in fact this was caused by "engine failure" as originally reported, one would guess/wager that there would have been significant pilot discussion and reporting to the tower if they were experiencing any sort of mechanical failure.

Now if they plane was unexpectedly shot by a S.A.M you could then assume that there was no time to actually discuss anything therefor the data would show no discussion....

It's very sad that these people paid such a price for nothing but bull#### political world drama here. I hope Iran pays, but without further escalation I don't see sanctions and restrictions really doing much in terms of "answers" to what happened and the families here ultimately get screwed.
