“Emergency equipment on EgyptAir flight transmitted distress signal at 4:26 a.m.”

CNN now confirming there was no distress call.

This is the ELT going off.

But if it didn’t go off radar for 20 minutes after the signal, so I would assume there would be time for some radio traffic. Unless they were prevented somehow.

So still nothing from the pilots. This means it was not a takeover of the plane by hostiles but a bomb detonated with no warning.
