"Once is an accident. Twice is a coincidence.

Three times is enemy action."
I don't know WTH is going on in and around Indonesian airspace, but something ain't right.
In addition, all the countries with spy satellites know more than they are telling.

But there is still all this weirdness going on:
@BNONews:
Officials confirm AirAsia plane flew further than reported by online tracking services

Why do they have so much trouble tracking a plane?

where I don't believe any explanation I see on the TV news.

This incident does look like it's due to bad weather, but I don't blame you for being cynical and skeptical.

... for some time. the fact is peons like us have no real information, we have whatever "facts" the powers that be want us to have. And some non-facts as well.

Clearly, everything that will ever be known about the airliner shot down over Ukraine is already known, but they aren't talking. Why would that be?

@nycjim: #QZ8501update
1: Nearly 12 hours after last contact with AirAsia flight, searchers have found no wreckage.

Could be because of weather conditions?
