Malaysia Airlines passenger jet crashes in Ukraine
Ukrainians are claiming that it was shot down by Russia.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

And yet CNN.com only states that they 'lost contact' with the plane.

I suspect the plane has made contact with the earth.christie1111 wrote:And yet CNN.com only states that they 'lost contact' with the plane.
Unless they think it's in the Indian Ocean somehow.

Unfortunatly I believe you are correct, I just think it is a tab bit premature to state someone shot it down.SpacemanSpiff wrote:I suspect the plane has made contact with the earth.christie1111 wrote:And yet CNN.com only states that they 'lost contact' with the plane.

It may be but they are saying it was Russian separatists who used an SA-11 missile.christie1111 wrote:Unfortunatly I believe you are correct, I just think it is a tab bit premature to state someone shot it down.SpacemanSpiff wrote:I suspect the plane has made contact with the earth.christie1111 wrote:And yet CNN.com only states that they 'lost contact' with the plane.

Re: Malaysia Airlines passenger jet crashes in Ukraine
As often happens when a plane crashes, there were a few people who changed their travel plans at the last minute, either onto or off of the doomed flight. This is the eeriest:
This could be a synopsis for Final Destination 6.The Sydney Morning Herald wrote:Fate was incredibly kind to his wife, but unspeakably cruel to Malaysia Airlines flight attendant Sanjid Singh.
His partner had been rostered to fly on missing Malaysia Airlines MH370 almost a year ago and swapped shifts because a colleague wanted to fly to China.
But the 41-year-old Mr Singh elected to swap shifts at the last moment and work on doomed flight MH17.

Re: Malaysia Airlines passenger jet crashes in Ukraine
Fifth anniversary of the tragedy.
A month ago, Dutch authorities charged 3 Russians and a Ukrainian with the crime. They'll be tried in absentia because Putin will never turn them over, and we have no leverage to force him to (like Gaddafi had to extradite the Pan Am 103 bomber).
This afternoon Dutch PM Rutte met Trump in the Oval Office. Not a word about MH17. SMH
