I will always say it was a bomb, and the more they try to make it look like it wasn't, the more I believe they are just trying to hide it from the public not to scare them to fly like in 2001. It was a bomb.

For a hundred years we've been flying planes thru storms, lightnings, adverse conditions of every kind, so fuck the coffin corner. The pilot and copilots had thousands of flight hours under their belt. Not a single mayday call.

  Radio communication fail? Weird electrical/magnetic phenomena? Meteor? These are just some of the more plausible ideas than "covert terrorism".

Why has no one stepped forward to take credit for downing the plane with a bomb? Isn't that the MO for terrorist organizations? Accidents happen, unfortunately. Sometimes planes crash. Our technology isn't perfect, and all we can hope for now are useful lessons to be learned from the crash itself.

  If I was a terrorist org, I wouldn't take credit. The new modus operandi is stealth mode, the days of TV shows about terror are over. Terror to create havoc on the world economy and air traveling will be the first hit. Expect more "accidents" in the future.

    if a terrorist group does not claim it, the world would not know it was a bomb (per your assumption) and that fear would not translate to the population....therefore your theory dies

    Terrorist organizations use terror to promote a cause. If you're just making people generally a little nervous, you're not doing a good job of advancing an agenda.

Both pilots of an Air Comet flight from Lima, Peru, to Lisbon, Portugal, sent a written report on the bright flash they said they saw to Air France, Airbus and the Spanish civil aviation authority, the airline told CNN. "Suddenly, we saw in the distance a strong and intense flash of white light, which followed a descending and vertical trajectory and which broke up in six seconds," the captain wrote. http://edition.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/americas/06/04/plane.crash http://edition.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/americas/06/04/plane.crash I think you were voted down unfairly. We don't know what happened, but whatever it was, it was instantaneous and caused a bright flash.
