The chances a Stinger took out an airliner at 31000’ are vanishingly small at best. Likely impossible.

This is what I think until better information comes forth to change my opinion.

31,000 feet is just the vertical distance. If there is any horizontal component, it makes it even less likely.

Exactly. That’s like saying a .22 will go over a mile. While true, intentionally hitting something at that range is extraordinarily unlikely.
