Default Re: Air France jet missing over Atlantic, 228 on board

Hi Lemon_Sky,

Not really. I think it was severe turbulence that caused something to happen. The week before another plane almost didn't make it to Brazil, this time coming from Miami, over the same region because of turbulence. Passengers claimed they were literally thrown against the ceiling of the aircraft and that the turbulence happened 'de repente' (all of a sudden) without warning.

These days we are just beginning the winter season and tropical storms are common. It could be that these tropical storms are being a little more aggressive (extreme climate change?).

It would be interesting to know if the weather experts have any information on this theory.

Best regards,

Steve
