What of all the other aircraft taking off from the airport today? Why not take a poke at them too?
Do shot down planes make controlled attempts of returning to the airport?
Why is the US to believed on its version of events?
Why did other commercial aircraft in the vicinity not fall to the same fate?Old Greg - In search of acceptance since Mar 2007. Hoping each leap will be his last.Comment

So we wouldn't have shot the plane by mistake.

I'm glad the announcement has been made as it helps the families come to terms with their loss. There's a long way to go for them yet but this is a positive start.
I am going to take a wild stab and say no-one participating in this thread has lost a family or friend to a plane crash and so none of us has a clue what it's like to have the world speculating on how and why your loved one died.Comment

Originally posted by Zigenare View PostSeems to me there was no problem with the missile design.
Like I said 95% of all failures are manufacturing ones. Not design.
Interesting factoid, did you know missiles are required to have their own flight safety certification?"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

How about Iran fired the rocket and are responsible, as are the US for flight 655.Comment
