Air Asia flight QZ8501 missing
Some cretinous blonde bimbo 'journalist' on Fox News has made a laughing stock of herself by insisting that the crash was caused by the fact that pilots in this part of the world (indeed all parts of the world except the US) use metric measurements instead of imperial.

I would assume they know the fate of their loved ones, especially when the aviation authority of Indonesia made a statement that it’s at the bottom of the ocean. This is unlike the continuous misinformation of MH370. RIP.Jaap N. wrote:This must for sure be a horrible time for family and friends of the people on that plane. I hope they find it soon. Not knowing what the fate of loved ones is is excruciating.

Tragic what's happened, but i see AirAsia Berhad the main business has been losing cash quite heavily every year since 2009 after capex,and has a whopping net debt of 7.7 billion RM.
Could this push this company under as competition has grown over the last few years and the lenders get jittery?
And from May 2012 ;
''Former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said through the cooperation, MAS will be able to learn from AirAsia and vice versa.
"I see people opposing, not the cooperation forged by both, but the manner in which the share swap deal of the airline companies was done. This is what many people protested against.
"So, now, with the share swap having been cancelled, the cooperation should continue as there is much that MAS can learn from AirAsia.
"Fares (AirAsia) are very cheap, sometimes free, but it has been able to provide the service for the past 10 years. Logically, the company should be bankrupt, while MAS which has received government aid of up to RM3 billion, is still losing money every year," he added.
He was speaking at a media conference after his lecture on 'The Challenges Faced by Muslims Now: Perception and Reality', organised by the Terengganu state government with the cooperation of the Terengganu Strategic Study and Integrity Institute here Thursday.

I'll translate it for you:
After somebody behind the scenes hijacked and shot down MH370 and MH17, as the world's sixth largest airline-Malaysia Airline is nearly destroyed, it is barely surviving. Now, this group has aimed it's sights on AirAsia, it too must be destroyed, since it also belongs to Malaysia. As this group is powerful, vicious and without mercy, I urge all Chinese to stay away from AirAsia to avoid another M370 incident happening.

There is also this comment left on another thread:
This is a Vietnamese news so I will do a quick translate. Basically there's this famous actress/model Duong Yen Ngoc, who used to be a police (which basically means she has connections with gov insiders), warned people on her FB that they should avoid flying with Malaysian Airline and another Asian airline right after the second MA incident happened. She didn't name the other one because she's afraid of a lawsuit, but stressed that there will another big accident(s). She and the Vietnamese gov are doing their best to protect the people.
That might be just coincidence, everyone laughed at her at that time, but now it seems just weird and scary. I honestly don't think she put that up just for 5 seconds of fame. There's definitely something BIG going on here.

Sorry cuz it's in Vietnamese. You can google her name to find more articles about her warning but I doubt there will be an English one

I wasn't suggesting I believe it at all - but quite a coincidence, no doubt will fuel fires of the conspiracy theorists to no end.Hanno wrote:Yupp, they are coming out of the woodwork alright....johnnyj wrote:There is a thread on a Chinese website that has exploded, apparently a guy predicted this;

We might know something soon. A plane door and emergency chute have been spotted and a Chinese Frigate's on the way. BTW, the request to move up to 38,000' was denied.

While I have no love for any major network news, don't forget a Mars robotic mission was lost a few years back when the math used didn't correct for metrics. So much for rocket scientists.
