Scary that you can just lose contact with a plane that size in this day and age.

Bet they tried to take a shortcut and got lost.

Indeed. It would appear there were no Brits on board so surprised the BBC have bothered with this.

On sky news there denying the story
It was SF mate, not LA.
Call me jittery but I'd be reluctant to get on a plane which looked like this :-
On a more serious note, if you watch the air crash investigation shows on YouTube it's incredible how such a simple mistake by someone on the ground can lead to absolute catastrophe.

Absolutely heartbreaking, 239 people on board, including 14 kids.
The thing is the flight path is mostly over land so surely they'd have found some wreckage by now? Also they weren't contacted by the aircraft itself so it's obviously happened very quickly. So tragic.

worrying stuff, strange that it just disappeared - was just reading there that they haven't spotted a crash site in the sea or anything / very bizarre

Had rolls-royce engines, could be a load of shit happening at work, hope not though, with a bit of luck it will not be the engines at fault.
According to the BBC the accident appears to have happened 130 nautical miles from land.

Doubt it's the engines. One may go, but not both at the same time. Whatever happened must have occurred very quickly for them to be unable to get a distress signal off at that altitude.

Flightradar24 had the disappearance just off the Malaysian coast, 40 mins into the flight. The authorities were working on the assumption that the incident happened 2 hours into the flight, off the coast of Vietnam.
Apparently, after hours of focussing on the wrong area, the official line has now switched to what Flightradar has been saying all along. Shocking waste of time with regard to any potential rescue efforts.

Remind me not to fly anywhere from Malaysia
If it's fallen from the sky so rapidly that the crew couldn't even get a mayday message out, then any rescue would be futile anyway
