And we wanted to resume flights there, tourism and all that --- when the Egyptian arrived and even our commission checked their security system. We need to wait a bit ... after all, the A321 did not reach St. Petersburg in October 2015. And there is a war against us .

[olegfbi]

And we wanted to resume flights there, tourism and all that. We need to pause ...

We need to think: Who benefits from this, in the sense of the lack of air links between Russia and Egypt ?!

Tragedy! Condolences to all the friends and relatives of the victims!

[jjj]

More recently, the liner was stolen. The Mediterranean is becoming a dangerous place

[Telakh]

Actually, the flight from Paris was on.
Locals of the Greek islands and a merchant ship say the outbreak was seen at this time.

[Very old]

Here's the news from the USA: on the island of Guam, immediately after takeoff, the strategic B-52 caught fire and fell on GDP

The news went through all the media except (attention!) Rain and echo

(does not apply to Egypt, but the topic is aviation)

[Omskgasmyas]

There are no losses on our and the Egyptian side.

[brasist]

Over the territory of Greece, Turks fly like at home, I don’t know who, but to whom it is precisely for this benefit. Condolences to the families of the victims!

However, the flight from Charles de Gaulle to Egypt. That is, if Babah crawled through, then this is a jamb of France.

[Thunderbolt]

Between Z. Europe and Egypt, the cycle of the Baboons is not weak. Therefore, it is difficult to predict where they will deliver the next blow.
P.S. If it’s a terrorist attack. But all the same, our people should fly there only because of work needs. All countries of this region are now in a zone of increased danger.

[BOB044]

If this is a terrorist attack then the roots in Paris. It is necessary, as in Israel, to work at an airport at any airport, all work is only under the control of the Israeli security service.

Some kind of half-news. When did you disappear, where did you fly? In general, follow the advice of our classic children's literature "do not go children to Africa". And you will be calmer.

Did the plane belong to Venice? What is the connection

[your1970]

Where is Crimea, where is Egypt, where is Venice and where is France ??? at least you read the geography for a start ... And also B-52 fell - also because of Venice and Crimea ??

[ravend]

Venice is Europe, Europe is starting to kick under the United States, this is a possible act of intimidation.

[your1970]

"KBK-EPV !!!" - if we start from this position, then it was we who fired the B-52 so that the Americans remember who is the boss ...

Only as a terrorist attack again. There was a terrorist attack on Paris. To the French, the fanatics of the igles are not indifferent. Tin. Probably fell into the Mediterranean Sea.

Let's wait for the official data. The plane was inspected in Paris. Security service level. There may be many reasons: tech. liner condition, pilot qualification, terrorist attack. According to the latest news, no debris was found on the water surface. There is little hope left, but it should always be!

[Arkan]

Egypt continues to be a very dangerous region, and a terrorist attack is possible in this situation.

[Cananecat]

Gone on top? The explosion again?

[33 Watcher]

Already reported that it seems to have fallen into the sea. Apparently found a place to fall ...

[Kamchatsky]

The news speaks of an alleged crew report on smoke in the cockpit. Question - what are the actions of the crew? Actions of ground services? Yes, in such cases, there should be kipish for the whole universe (radio silence mode, emergency reduction, etc.). The thought of an explosion on board is very requested, they could have time to report smoke, and then depressurization. It’s very difficult to search for wreckage in the sea. Although guessing without really any information is probably too early.

[donavi49]

If the explosion, depressurization, uncontrolled fall with separation of parts - then the field of debris in the sea will be huge and this is quickly sought. If it fell in pieces, at a large angle and speed, then there are practically no debris and they are all in one place.

Could for example close the wiring, catch fire and disconnect everything to them. There could be a bomb. There could be another technical reason (for example, a hidden fire in the engine - which drove smoke through the injection system into the passenger compartment). Yes, a lot of what could be.

[gispanec]

if this is a terrorist attack, what else does the EU need to start realistically-jointly destroying Daesh and the rest ??
A terrible tragedy ... still ours in memory ... mourn ...

[Mountain shooter]

Twenty minutes before landing - he could already begin to decline. Smoke in the cockpit, fire on board - the crew would be in touch. Alas, experience shows that if the liner is at high altitude, and not in landing mode, then such sudden disappearances - most often - an explosion. He could put a bomb, as in ours in Egypt - a man from the staff. The power of the bomb is half a kilogram of plastid (by volume - a small Borodinsky loaf). Put it in the pocket of a chair - who will find it?
And the fact that the barmalei work at the airport in Paris - do not go to your grandmother. Who is cleaning the planes, scooping out the toilets and loading luggage?

[fzr1000]

Usually, but there are exceptions, they explode early, not 20 minutes before landing. Although for close passengers, what's the difference?

What are we all specialists here? Do we diagnose dysentery in the first bunch of media? Information is zero, time is zero - there are already a lot of versions. Wait for official statements, then we'll talk.

[Abbra]

The fact that the crash happened is already officially known. And the fact that the terrorist attack, or not the terrorist attack, will have to be convinced for a very long time. The plane crashed into the sea. Of course, the tragedy, what is there to say ... Now the barmaley of the race will report that this is their job.

[Executer]

Judging by the flytradar - the transponder abruptly stopped working, there is no fall (a sharp drop in altitude and speed). Just stopping the transponder at an altitude of 11270 m at a speed of 989 km / h. Very similar to an explosion. Although in the story with our Boeing over Sinai, the transponder still continued to work for some time. Not to mention the Boeing in Rostov - there he worked before a collision with the Earth.

[Vladimir]

Tell me, dear forum users, who is strong in radars, if the liner breaks into pieces, say after the explosion on the radar, does it somehow display or not? It is clear that the radar may not notice small parts of the hull, but such a liner is still not a drone, and so it should be smashed into molecules need a lot of explosives.

[Captain45]

Again Airbus, France, Egypt. I don’t want to go into conspiracy theories, but there are two victims in this case: France-Egypt, and are there reasons for selling Mistrals to Egypt?
Condolences to the families of the victims.

[Abbra]

No, it’s more like the echoes of Napoleon’s trip to Egypt ... What strange fantasies do you have?

[Sergey333]

We must assume the last thing that the passengers of this airliner heard was the cry of Allahu Akbar.
