According to FOXNews and the BBC, ATC lost radio and radar contact with the jet during cruise.

If true, sounds bad...

If there is a God, this accident will be due to terrorism. We REALLY need to turn the Arab/Muslim world against al Qaeda.

Sorry Charlie, it seems to be over weather. Also it was full of troops. Antonov only makes turboprops (other than the An-124 and AN-225). Probably an AN-22 or something.

Ok, now I see that there is only one AN-22 in flying condition in the world. Nevermind, I'm retarded!!!!
