 Det er klart at forsvinningen skaper ny uro om selskaper i området og flysikkerhet. AirAsia har såvidt jeg vet ikke hatt større flyuhell. Det er en såkalt Budget eller Low Cost Airline. Flyet forsvant fra radaren etter 45 minutter da det var i 32 000 fot. Det hadde akkurat bedt om å få fly rundt dårlig vær og å klatre til 38 000 fot. Dette er standard prosedyre dersom flygeren finner det nødvendig. En ikke-bekreftet melding sier at flyet reduserte hastighet vesentlig da det forsvant fra radaren. Redusert hastighet er også vanlig i turbulente værforhold, men det kan også ha sammenheng med en forholdsvis rask oppstigning,eller en kombinasjon av disse. Fly er bygget for å kunne tåle ekstremt vær. Sjekk CNN:  http://www.cnn.com/ AirAsia er også på Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/AirAsia?fref=ts

    The seas here on the straits are rough but nothing exceptional. But it could be much worse further out in the less-sheltered Java sea. It's getting dark in this area and is still raining, making it very hard to spot something in these conditions.

Flight MH370 disappeared on a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing in March with 239 passengers and crew, and MH17 was shot down over Ukraine in July, killing all 298 on board.
The AirAsia flight had been due to arrive in Singapore at 08:30 (00:30GMT).
