My gut feeling is that its terrorism, but what do I know?

 

 

My gut feeling would be the same at first sight. It is only having read about the reports of the plane entering a stormy region, and - particularly - the automated signal warning of an electrical failure, that now I am less inclined to think so. I would have thought that a bomb would destroy the entire plane in toto before any alert signal could be sent.

This is why I only fly on airlines that have Boeings in their fleet

Mechanically still the most relable passenger planes in the world

Hmmmm, there's a lot of Boeings in the world :huh:

 

I agree they are good planes, but i'm not sure it would get me on some East African/Ex USSR airlines

Brazilian air traffic control now reports that, as well as a loss of electrical systems, the automated alerts also signalled a loss of cabin pressure. That strongly implies that the aeroplane broke apart in the air.

 

There is still no sign of the craft, or any wreckage thereof, being found. It must now be considered unlikely in the extreme that anyone has survived.

That's actually a ridiculous comment. FAR more Boeings have crashed. Take the Japan Air crash that killed 500 people due to a faulty repair carried out by a Boeing mechanic.

 

The A330 hadn't had a passenger fatality at all up until today.

Whew. The muslims under my bed aren't wearing anything. Do you think I'm safe?
