Vanished??? Seriously?
I'm kind of surprised that the media wants us to believe that the Air France flight 447 just vanished. If there had been problems do they mean for me to believe that there was no radio distress call from 30,000 feet. That there was no time for someone to say, "hey, looks like one of our planes is dropping in altitude"?
Nope... it just vanished.
Something had to have happened that was sudden and catastrophic. Some that made it impossible for the crew to say they were having problems during their descent and eventual crash landing in the sea. Eventually information will leak out about some theory of an explosion, or a missile, or a bomb but for now they just want us to believe it just vanished.
Yea, I don't think so.
