Re: Airliner Goes Missing Over the Med

Too early to tell for sure, but indications pointing towards an act of terrorism. Wreckage found in 8 to 10000 feet of water.

WX perfectly good.....high pressure in the area....visibility good, winds light.

Re: Airliner Goes Missing Over the Med

You are right about that,
And 3 videos of ISIS threatening Egypt of very close terrorist attacks have been intercepted last week by authorities of an European country which I do know well. Perhaps just a coincidence, perhaps not.
Anyway, very worrisome.

How do you know?

This is from 2 hours ago. Nobody names ISIS nor claims it is a terrorist act:

Conflicting reports over EgyptAir plane crash debris

Whatever the cause, this is, as you said, too bad.

Re: Airliner Goes Missing Over the Med

It's not good to blame anyone so early. Have to investigate overall but it surely doesn't looks good.
