That COULD explain the absence of a MAYDAY call!

The commuter plane in Buffalo didn’t have a mayday call.

When planes are in trouble, sending out maydays are the last thing the pilot is worried about. They are panicking trying to save the plane.

It sure could and our stupid DoD was so quick to say it was terrorism — they had not even found the wreckage when they made that statement.

“That COULD explain the absence of a MAYDAY call!”

TWO Debris fields, 35 miles apart is pretty self-explanatory, in my view.

It means a mid-air breakup, with different sections coming down in different areas.

I thought “bomb” from the first moment I heard this.

Well, there are things that have puzzled me about this story from the beginning. Of course I am not an expert in airplanes, so I’m not sure what is normal, other than what I read in the news, but the sequence of events did seem a little odd to me, and of course, in this day and age, I think many of us think bomb right away. Most of the time as info comes out we realize it was unlikely, but without info it’s hard to know.
