Flying from Burkina Faso to Algiers, 4 hour flight, disappeared 50 minutes after takeoff = crashed somewhere in the middle of the Sahara in Mali, will probably take a while to spot the wreckage.

Do they send a search plane out on the original path, based on the radar data, to see if they can spot wreckage? Or do they wait to see what assistance they get from others?
Just curious what the protocol is for foreign countries/airlines. |

Yahoo beat Arfcom? No good.
Hopefully everyone's OK and it's just a snafu. |

Planes go up
Planes go down The type of down is always the most important part of the flight. TAG |

Somebody is getting good at making airplanes disappear. since the Iranian and associated terrorists want to nuke New York city, I suppose they might need a delivery system.

So it was headed north from Burkina Faso through Mali to Algeria, but it was rerouted and tuned back to the south-west to Niger, must have been some massive storms if there were no way to go around. |
