Welp...hopefully it's just some glitch and the worst didn't happen

I'm thinking that with originating in Paris and the company involved, it doesn't look like there are any survivors ..awful for their families

An EgyptAir flight from Paris to Cairo that crashed into the Mediterranean Sea with 66 people on board was very likely brought down by a terror attack, experts said today.

The Airbus A320 left the French capital's Charles De Gaulle Airport at 9.09pm GMT last night before coming down off the Greek island of Karpathos ten miles into Egyptian airspace at around 00.30am. Officials said there was no distress call.

There were 56 passengers on board including one Briton, 30 Egyptians, 15 French, one Belgian, one Iraqi, one Kuwaiti, one Saudi Arabian, one Chadian, one Portuguese, one Algerian and one Canadian. There were 10 crew on flight MS804 including three security guards.

Jean-Paul Troadec, the former chief of the BEA national investigation unit, said the lack of a live emergency alert suggested a 'brutal event'.

He told Europe 1 radio station in Paris: 'A technical problem, a fire or a failed motor do not cause an instant accident and the team has time to react.

'The team said nothing, they did not react, so it was very probably a brutal event and we can certainly think about an attack.'

Paris attacked yet again? This is horrible R.I.P to all those who lost their lives

[_Tom_]

Greek authorities are saying flight debris has been spotted southeast of where the plane disappeared.

[arista]

There was 2 Iraqi's on there
I wonder if they were part of this Tragic fast crash in the Sea.

[_Tom_]

Airplane life vests have been found in the search for the plane. Doesn't look good.

[arista]

May have crashed into the Sea at speed
going right to the deep bottom

So sad

[Northern Monkey]

Said on Daily Politics that "the plane swerved sharply to ninety degrees and then fell abruptly by twenty two thousand feet.It was cruising at a normal altitude of thirty seven thousand feet".Speculation of a fight in the cockpit.No distress calls or warnings.
Scary.
