Always sad to hear things like this.. Details very light right now but with 224 fatalities this is the most deadly crash ever involving the A320 family of aircraft.

My phone sent me a notification about this crash at around 1:30am. There was vague information in the report as the accident just occurred.

Very tragic that all persons on board died. Another black eye for Russian aviation.

It wasn't the plane or the pilots, but our foes in the Mid-East, the people that the Western world cannot band together to fight. Not a black eye for Russian aviation, they are better than we think they are.

There is no evidence that this was anything but a technical issue (rather than a terrorist one).

True. But the opposite statement is equally true.

Gah. I haven't flown in six years, but I'm flying Monday. Was pretty happy that I wasn't feeling anxious at all about the flight...till I heard this.

So why not wait for the result of the investigation before jumping to a conclusion.

Some Reports were saying that there are Voices heard from inside the wreckage. How is that possible when none of the passengers survived.
With 224 passengers, it was a jam-packed plane.
