Yikes. The coincidence of this is unbelievable and now news sources are reporting that it may have been shot down by rebels in the recent Ukraine/Russia conflict. Scary stuff. I am flying almost that exact route (Amsterdam to Hong Kong) in a few weeks...

Well maybe it would be wise to change the flight lanes, to airspace that is not over countries involved in a turf war.

World is going to hell and nobody is paying attention it seems.

I know. Apparently this is the 3rd plane crash in that area over the last 3 days. The first were claimed by the Russian rebels. If this was indeed shot down the shit could really hit the fan.
