Danny G Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Another Malaysian Airlines flight! Looks to have been shot down. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/ukraine/10974050/Malaysian-plane-crashes-on-Ukraine-Russia-border-live.html Quote
Elephant Stone Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 So it took the Northern corridor then.... Implications from this could be scary if it was shot down. Awful. Quote
Danny G Posted July 17, 2014 Author Posted July 17, 2014 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. Quote
Site Supporter Cheese Posted July 17, 2014 Site Supporter Posted July 17, 2014 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. Quote
gonzo Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Maybe it was a suicide bomber armed with an IPhone 4 charger. Quote

Maggie Tate Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 sorry I'd have a great deal more to say if I didn't suspect a fishing trip with a very large net Anyhow who remembers this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_Air_Flight_655 Quote
Danny G Posted July 17, 2014 Author Posted July 17, 2014 Shot down by a BUK missile, ex Cold War Soviet era. Quote
Site Supporter Spider Posted July 17, 2014 Site Supporter Posted July 17, 2014 Gosh Let's imagine that was a BA flight. What's the course of action? This could get very unpleasant. Quote
Danny G Posted July 17, 2014 Author Posted July 17, 2014 23 Yanks on board! This will get interesting. Quote
Marc505 Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 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? Quote
Maggie Tate Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 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. Quote

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. Quote
