Ok..this could get very ugly..
Because the flight path over that area could of been directed by Ukraine flight control...
So why directed in to a hot area not on normal flight path?
To try to trigger some incident for political gain?. testing defence?
Shadow of KAL007, at least by judging WH propaganda arm.
What is known beyond doubt:
1. The route was chosen by Ukraine ATC in Kiev. Pilot accepted the route, although he was not obliged to do so.
2. Kiev ATC lowered flight from 36,000ft (360) to 32,000 ft.
3. Corridor was closed for civilian traffic BELOW 30,000 ft. MH17 was sailing only 200ft above restricted airspace.
4. Ukraine army deployed 21 BUK launchers and command vehicle/radar two day before in the area where the MH17 fell.
5. Acquisition radar was active at the time MH17 was shot down.
6. Kiev ATC reported of MH17 being shot down the moment it went off radar.
7. Numerous amateur videos captured the plane plumes. On several of the videos chaff could be seen falling down, indicating the presence of someone's fighter jets.
Who did it? There are 5 possible perps: US/NATO puppet regime in Kiev, Russia, Donetsk defence forces, Oligarchs paying one of the parties to do dirty job for them.
So, the better question is - Who gains?
