Your hatred of Trump is obvious.

He’s going to be the next POTUS. Get over it, Francis.

Looks like Trump called it right.

Are you saying his middle name is Massengil?

This would be consistent with the report by an expert of a bomb just before tail causing pilots to be unable to control. She explained how loss of tail causes the 90% + 360 descend spin

Mr. GG2 who is a pilot and also used to build planes at Boeing said that the described gyration of the plane is indicative of a wing shearing off. He thinks likely due to bomb also.

I was following this on the thread last night until 1 am my time. I already said it had to be terrorism. Clearly something happened to the plane, suddenly, at altitude, and there was no distress call. Also, Greeks at the nearest island, and fishing boats, were all reporting seeing a fireball.

If Trump read the same reports, of COURSE he knew it was terror.

ISIS just began to take on Egypt, and we know how they feel about France.

The plane had been on 5 runs that day, including to Tunisia.

Of course it was terror, and the media is over careful when it is obvious and still is saying things like “if in good health the passengers can survive up to 5 hours in the water.” Yeah, if the plane blowing up at 37,000 feet didn’t have any effect...

RIP to all aboard.

Well, that is a plane. Not confirmed if it is this particular crash?

Many flights, especially international flights have Air Marshall’s on board. They don’t advertise who they are so they look like regular passengers in most cases. Having them on board is probably not a smoking gun in this instance. Fairly standard MO.

...... I was trying to figure out why the 90 degree left turn, then right 360 and altitude drop...

Is it possible the pilot was attempting evasive maneuvers because of an incoming missile?

Could be a wing; that would be a bomb in the fuel there. But that is harder to get to and the fuel is much more protected than people think. It would also require a mechanic with a lot of know-how to get something in there. And greater chance of detection, since inspectors come along after.

The tail is more likely, IMHO, in that it’s weaker and that is where the storage area for thing loaded onto the plane by airport staff (e.g., food/drinks) are.

Any control surface (tail or wing) loss would give you roughly the same effect.

Mr. GG2’s daughter, SIL and 3 grandkids live in France. They don’t understand why we won’t fly over to visit. LOL!

Obama says the US will assist in the investigation, so I think we’ll quickly find the truth... that it was caused by climate change.
