Something about Egypt that seems to be getting a lot of bad plane things happen. First last year a Russian plane in Egypt gets blown up then end of March this year an Egypt air plane hijacked tho thankfully no deaths or injuries now this. Feel sorry for people with loved ones on that plane as up to now nothing has been confirmed about anyone on flight, ok it seems obvious there will of been no survivors unfortunately but for people with loved ones on the flight they won't be able to give up hope completely until it's confirmed.

Sadly they have already found debris, passenger remains and cargo floating on the sea about 180 to 200 miles north off the coast of Egypt :-(

Seems there are a lot of conflicting reports about this flight some saying the pilot sent distress call others saying he didn't. Some saying explosion likely others saying no explosion. I think all anyone knows is sadly no one survived even tho no bodies have yet been identified body parts have been found which pretty much tells you no one could of survived. At least the families and friends won't live in false hope that their loved ones mite of survived. I just hope how the last minutes happened is soon found out so they can start to grieve and come to terms with it.

On Jun 10th 2016 Egypt's CAA reported that the vessel "John Lethbridge" of Deep Ocean Search has arrived on site. The vessel is tasked to locate and recover the black boxes from the sea floor.
