I have no idea what is a normal distance of a debris field is when a plane explodes in midair, but when PAN-AM 103 was blown up over Lockerbie, Scotland, debris was found as far away as Keilder Forest in Northumberland - more than 60 miles away.
RIP the victims of this Air France disaster.
The plane was flying into storms and high winds, correct? That alone tells us something, probably not, terrorist related caused this plane to come down.
The attack is coming and it won't be the taking down of a plane full of Brazilians and French.
