CNN report on the crash

Thanks for the information...I will keep an eye/ear out for any more information..:-(

Hmm, that really is annoying for the goverment the the big guy is killed  :-X

From the news here (Bosnia being practically a neighbour), it appears there are no survivors, the plane ran into a mountain

Bad news, as always... ...!
...atrociuos weather conditions again..(fog/low cloud/poor visibility?)...!
It always amazes me that pilots are pressurised to fly in unsafe conditions...!
A lesson for all of us... ...!

Cheers all...!

Sad,sad...

Im not surprised if it was bad weather, but Im surprised the pilots didn't select a better altitude to cruise at,

but there could have been some sort of mechanical problem, catastrophic engine failure....
