there was a story that the first one was shot down by USA because they feared it was being used for a 911 style attack.Also possiblethey are being hijacked for later use as a missile.

AirAsia Indonesia flight QZ8501, Airbus A320-200 with the registration number PK-AXC, going from Surabaya to Singapore departed at 5.35am Indonesian time (9.35am AEDST) and was scheduled to arrive at 8.30am Singapore time (10.30am AEDST).

.............lost contact with air traffic control at 07:24hrs this morning

An Indonesian transport official said the plane had asked for an unusual route before it lost contact.

A TV report said the pilot had asked for permission to fly higher to 34,000 feet because of bad weather.

An Indonesian transport official said the plane had asked for an unusual route before it lost contact.

The head of the rescue operation from the Indonesian search and rescue agency said there were three possibilities when a plane lost contact at the height it did: engine failure, that it had ditched over the sea, or was diverted to another airport.

The other airports in the region have been contacted, but have no record of a diversion, he said.

The passengers include 138 adults, 16 children and one baby, and seven crew. Reports say no Australians were onboard.

A crisis centre has been set up at Surabaya airport and relatives have begun arriving to tearfully to view a full list of names of those who were on the flight.

One woman at the crisis centre had seven family members including her mother and brother on board the flight.

"AirAsia has established an Emergency Call Centre that is available for family or friends of those who may have been on board the aircraft. The number is: +622129850801

That story about the USA is in one of the Murdoch papers polks, but I don't know which one or whether it was here or OS. I've only seen a headline that was commented on on twitter.

It is the fourth most widely circulated daily newspaper in the United States. It was founded in 1919, and was the first U.S. daily printed in tabloid format; as of 2014 [update], it is owned and run by Mortimer Zuckerman........not a Murdoch paper

is that a murdoch twyn??

he owns so much it's hard to work out what he doesn't own lol

that's a recent article too, so maybe that's the one they were tweeting about yesterday? though it seems the original story was published much longer ago in paints link. I wonder why they re-hashed it now?
