You have to wonder how this could happen to a commercial airliner with all that technology in the cockpit, that was said to have flown to close to a T-Storm to the the South I think as reported by the press.

Unreal I thought with all modern avionics in an airliner, and even if a captain makes a mistake thinking atc would be giving vectors.

Anyway wondering from GM and other professional pilots on how something like this could happen in aviation ? Unreal how much damage to to the plane was and press says they used the auto land in the AirBus!!!
