    It shouldn't bring a plane down though.

    Sorry, forgot to look at where you were. It was just a small recap though, not very informative. Perhaps when they give you your late news they'll have something more useful to say.

    I wish. Perth just get BCC of eastern states news at night. Reminds me of the "Chopper" Weather Skit. Very true for WA

    Sorry for the OT remarks though. It is a great tragedy when one of our deloved airplanes fails to gently return to earth.

    People can speculate all they want, but until the aircraft is found, answers to this is not possible.

    I have lifted this link from PPrune.

    ASN Aircraft accident Airbus A330-203 F-GZCP Atlantic Ocean

    and

    "Brasilian government sources report, that the airplane also disappeared from military radars (primary radars), that do not depend on transponder signals."

    source: Crash: Air France A332 over Atlantic on June 1st 2009, aircraft missing

    and

    an airbus spokesman has said "the plane was probably struck by lightning"

    cheers,
