Any idea on which airliner? I had the "pleasure" of flying EgyptAir from JFK to Cairo then on to Hurghada, a few months before the same flight took a header in the ocean. I heard this flight was out of Sharm-al-Sheik, so it could be a number of charters.

Remember a few years back before 9/11, when an Egyptian pilot deliberately brought a plane down - and later when the black box was recovered, the pilot was found to be uttering a mantra, something like, "God is great, God is great..." over and over.

Maybe no connection, but these wacko Egyptians are somewhat suspect.

If its terrorism, it makes the US look more prudent in our inspections of planes.
