Yes, disapeared from 35,000 feet about 40 minutes into the flight.
Airframe had done around 3000 cycles and 20,000 hours. 2 Kiwi
passengers onboard.<br>
<br>
They certainly seem to have dragged their heels reporting it
missing. Also seems very slow identifying officially the crash spot
despite reports that the Navy found the slicks of Jet A1 on the
surface in the appropriate search location.<br>
<br>
Some good info on it's disappearance on various aviation/radar site.<br>
<br>
This is the 4th 777 loss of hull, 2nd fatal. 1 was fire on the
ground, 1 dropped short of the runway with loss of engine power, 1
hit the seawall at San Francisco.<br>
<br>
Whatever happened, it seems it was instantaneous loss of airframe
integrity at altitude, terrorism possible.<br>

It's being reported as a 777, and this would be the first
in-flight loss of a 777 I think? There's been some ground
incidents with them, but I don't think an airline has binned one
yet? On 08/03/14 15:38, John Barnhill wrote: </font>

has good coverage of this missing flight. You can see on the 'live
tracking program' where Flt. MH370 disappears off the screen. Boeing
having a bit of bad luck lately with their 747's.
