Kinda reminds me of that Malaysian Airlines flight that disappeared.One wounder what the passengers were thinking in the final minutes (hours?).
“Yup,I recall having heard this story years ago.I remember somebody who was on board saying that people were kneeling in the aisles praying.”
... the history of the crash, and selected pieces of the aircraft and passenger effects (including handwritten farewell notes)
The aircraft, configured with increased economy class seating, was carrying 524 people. Casualties of the crash included all 15 crew members and 505 of the 509
