Not much info yet. Hopefully survivors but who knows.

 

[Felon]

it was carrying 142 passengers, 4 cabin crew and 2 pilots apparently, vanished from radar at 11am apparently.

Doesn't sound good at all

 

[Guerrilla]

Fingers crossed that some good can come from it.

 

[Castiel]

What is it with planes falling out of the sky all of a sudden?

If true, it's doesn't sound good at all. Here's hoping.

 

[Felon]

French police helicopters have apparently spotted debris in Digne-les-bains, so not sounding good at all

 

[DJMK4]

not another one

 

[Redgie]

Again !?

 

[scorza]

Awful, the poor people

 

[Cosimo]

This is going to be bad news.

 

[McBain]

 

[Nate75]

horrific

 

[John40]

Sudden and catastrophic according to Sky which could point to an explosion.
No survivors expected.

 

[Felon]

French president apparently says "no survivors are expected" so sounds like a complete and catastrophic failure,

RIP

 

[Nitefly]

Oh dear - terrible news

 

[Hades]

Apparently plane enthusiasts were tracking it online and 'saw' it descend very rapidly before disappearing.

RIP

Not good at all

Surely something is going wrong the aviation these days. There's been a huge increase in the number of large plane crashes in the last 10-15 years. I get it, there's a lot more planes up there now, but surely with technological advances...

Increase in flight numbers
Increase is destinations
More competition

Unfortunate, but hundreds die due to Genocides everyday, RIP to the innocent.
