EgyptAir Plane Disappears Over the Mediterranean

EgyptAir flight 804 took off from Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris at 11:09 p.m. Wednesday, for what was supposed to be a 3 ½ hour flight to Cairo, Egypt, before it disappeared. The 66 passenger airbus, including 10 flight crew members, was flying about 37,000 feet when it vanished off the radar somewhere over the Mediterranean Sea. Egyptian Civil Aviation Minister Sharif Fathi is classifying this tragedy as a terrorist attack. Fathi says that the plane had no known mechanical or technical issues, and the probability of terrorism is higher than any other assumption. EgyptAir has been targeted frequently over the past few months by presumed terrorist. Our condolences goes out to anyone effected by this tragedy.
