Born Hunter 17,960 Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Doesn't look good does it.... the place is crawling with insurgents. Lost contact shortly after take off I believe which makes a man portable missile attack possible or simply a crash. Maybe even a hijacking.... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

*The*Field*Marshall* 674 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 What on earth is going on with all these planes. . Crash landing in Taiwan too. . Not that it can be compared to another case like this. . Hijacked? Spent some time in Burkina Faso with a few missionaries and locals back in 2004, they spoke of extremists to the north in Mali and speculated over how long it would take for them make an impact in their country. . Hope the innocent passengers come to no harm, precarious times. . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BIGLURKS 874 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I think the time has come too get a pilot licence cos getting on a commercial plane is becoming a bit of a roll of the dice with your life Quote Link to post Share on other sites
