Or maybe not. What aim would terrorists achieve if they never took responsibility for an action and no one knew it was an act of terrorism...
Doesn't make any sense for this to be terrorism.
I don't fly an Airbus but I hear that the guys that do fly it, like it. However, it appears the thing is too automated - two down in just a few months - and now the structural design is in question. I never did buy the idea that a foot happy f/o brought down an airliner!
Boeing stock is up 10% since this crash.
I know what I won't be bidding - when I get the chance!
Both the 330 and 300 are composite. What will be tell-tale is where the vert stab/rudder is located in proximity to the rest of the wreckage.
Then you end up with the question of whether the accident was causedby it separating or whether the already dying/dead airplane caused the tail to separate.... or whether it was just sheered off when it impacted the water.
Regardless.... that is a super clean break and the rudder even remained intact.
...and everyone at work wonders why I wish we had Boeings .....

I do recall two 737s going down due to rudder problems.
I don't think one manufacturer has it perfect on everything.
