Well without posting the articles, the pilot radioed in and said technical problems. May not be nefarious after all.

i read they were hearing voices from inside the wreck but it's confirmed all 224 are dead including 17 children.

An aviation team has retrieved the black boxes of the plane to determine the reason for the crash of the Airbus A-321, which was heading from the Red Sea resort of Sharm El-Sheikh to Russia's St Petersburg.

the plane was found split into two, with at least 100 bodies already recovered and the rest still inside the wreckage. At least 50 ambulances have been dispatched to the crash site, an Egyptian cabinet statement said.

Bodies were found strapped to their seats inside the crashed plane. Seventeen children and teenagers, aged from two to 17, were among the passengers on the Russian jet.

They just said on CNN that ISIS is trying to take the credit for this. Not sure if anyone believes it, but that is their claim.

IS has some SA 18 Igla's, but their max height is 10 000 feet so No
