~The YTSB releases investigation findings to the public:
Lufthansa438 Super was on a routine flight when it neared an island. The Airbus A380 had been flying for around 1.6 hours at a low altitude of 15,000ft when the plane hit a flock of high-altitude birds near an island. The plane sent one last transmission before vanishing. The plane disappeared for about an 1.5 hours before getting spotted again on vectors. The plane crashed into the side of the island. There were no survivors. We have confirmed that when the flock hit the plane, 2 engines exploded, tearing the wing of the plane and severely scarring the aircraft. The plane crash was deemed "unsurvivable" by the YTSB.

@FrankieB BTW I did only the front on purpose.
@FrankieB thanks!
@TheGuyWhoFliesToGetHisPie yeah, I attempted at it for hours and hours and almost broke my keyboard out of rage, what I mean is the front half of the plane is black, cool story btw!
@FrankieB What do you mean? Both sides are black. BTW the tail of the 777 is a killer.
@TheGuyWhoFliesToGetHisPie but why would half of the plane turn black if it hit birds? It's really cool though
