Egypt Air flight M8804 flying from Paris to Cairo went missing over the eastern Mediterranean at 02:45 Cairo time. It was carrying 59 passengers and 10 crewmembers.

Flying from Paris? Doesn't look good.

Egypt says what all of us have assumed:

Interesting that they waited until the plane was over the Med to blow it up. I guess somebody tried to learn from the Lockerbie bombing?

One crewmember to 6 pax ratio and half of the pax were Egyptian. Not looking good for Egypt's tourism.

Tragic.

But at least it was an Airbus instead of a Boeing.

I would agree if it was mechanical. If terrorism, it wouldn't matter.

You have no patience......:munchin


Or DHS is in such a tizzy that they classified the information so high that they now cannot retrieve it to disseminate!

I'm betting America is secretly at Threat Level Chartreuse but DHS has not yet told us.

And remember, "If you see something, steal something!"


(or is that just calif? where they just passed a bill legalizing stealing anything under $500)
