    Danny G just text  He recons it's all too convenient this   Saying its been planted there to throw everyone off the scent   He's got evidence of a 3 way cover up between the US, Euro millions &am

  • All joking aside   There's something on those voice recordings they don't want the public to know.   It's simple - if the cockpit window has gone and they've decompressed they'd know already.

Unbelievable

Dread to think how this may escalate

So it took the Northern corridor then....

 

Implications from this could be scary if it was shot down. Awful.

It was flying above the area that the Russian Separatists have been shooting down Ukraine Military planes over the last few weeks.

No doubt they have mistaken a civilian aircraft for a military one.

The Russian's must have given them some fucking shit hot equipment to enable them to shoot an aircraft out of the sky at 30,000 feet.

Maybe it was a suicide bomber armed with an IPhone 4 charger.

Shot down by a BUK missile, ex Cold War Soviet era.

Gosh

 

Let's imagine that was a BA flight.

 

What's the course of action?

 

This could get very unpleasant.

23 Yanks on board! This will get interesting.

9 Brits as well

It's bloody worrying.

Same airline and type as MH370, horrific coincidence it's terrible news this. Can't imagine what the fallout could be, what the hell happens now?

I'm not so sure there is any reason to think very much will come of it or that it will cause any worsening of the overall mess. Civilian planes have been shot down more than most would think and seldom does it worsen the bigger picture.  The Ukrainian govt shot down a Russian civilian aircraft carrying about 80 or so in 2001, incidentally. Nothing came of it.

I assume there were no Americans on that though

You know more than most on the subject, but surely this is a bit different as it wasn't a regional carrier - this had YANKS on it!

 

Also, will the yanks know who did it? I'm guessing they will.

When I fly over Iran I often wonder what the fuck is going on below me. I might just buy loads of tinned food and build a bunker
