the air france plane crash

its amazing how a plane can completly dissapear.also a mystary of how it came to crash.just shows that no matterhow many safty checks they do something can always go wrong.
one thing puzzles me though .there was a 11 year old lad in bristol who who was on the flight yet his parentswas still in  brazil.
did he travel alone?
i certainly would not let my child travel alone on a plane like that.

In fact statistics say you have more chance of being kicked to death by a donkey, than dying in a plane crash.

yeah you would considering the amount of theworld what is on show

the electrical storm is likely to have hidden it from any satelite assuming one was focused over that spot.

the concerning news is that there was some communication with the controllers advising them that there was a serve electrical storm but what ever happened happened so quickly that they (the pilots) did not have a chance to send out a distress call. this points to a sudden a catastrophic failure of one or more components.

it is not unusal for children to be put on planes on their own having been dropped of a the airport and collected at their destination by a responsible adult. A british passport holder but patently a resident of Brazil or perhaps his parents are in the diplomatic corps.

you would think that they would make the black box able to float .with the amount of water they have across the world
GTB

If you had a black box that was able to float you would never find the plane. They reckon the plane is in 13500ft (about 2 miles) of water and there is little chance of getting the black boxes before their 30 day life expires.

One of my friend's sons went to school with the 11 year old kid in Bristol.

i dont think that 11yr old lad was on his own his mum was with him while the dad and sister stayed behind .
Theres nothing wrong with letting kids fly on there own they are well looked after by cabin crew .
