Quote:AirAsia Indonesia flight QZ8501 to Singapore missing

An AirAsia Indonesia airliner flying from Indonesia to Singapore with 162 people on board has gone missing.

Flight QZ8501 lost contact with air traffic control at 06:24 local time (23:24 GMT Saturday) over the Java Sea.

The plane, an Airbus A320-200, disappeared midway into the flight of more than two hours from the city of Surabaya. No distress call was made.

Bad weather was reported in the area, and an air search operation has now been suspended for the night.

Planes from Indonesia and Singapore had been scouring an area of sea between Kalimantan (Borneo) and Java. Some boats were reported to be continuing to search as night fell.

No wreckage has been found, an Indonesian official told the BBC.

Got to be kidding me... This is the worst year for civil flights, how many decades do we need to go back until there's a year that took as many casulties?

And unrelated but an awful coincidence on the same day, there's a ship in fire between Greece and Italy Sad

There are many reasonable arguments for climate change, and a few of them can even be reasonably linked to some human interference especially when considering China and their lack of any real regulation, but come on now.

I don't know if that's how it works tho.

My thoughts go out to the passengers and crew on the plane, this is honestly one of my biggest fears.

Sort of, yeah, though they seem to have a pretty good approximation of where it went down and why. Just not the right equipment (yet) to bring it back up from the seabed.

Agree that this is really unfortunate for civil flights. Ukraine, Malaysia, Indonesia...entire flights that have just ceased to exist in one way or another. I'm not up to snuff on my air travel history but I think it's been quite some time since it was this bad? Perhaps a couple of decades, since Korean Air was losing flights left and right.

They've started to find wreckage and bodies.

That's not as bad as the guy on CNN actually asking if "black holes are eating these planes".

I wondered if that could have been the case as I was typing that up -- thanks. Very interesting.
