Really sad news actually ... aside from the TransAsia crash yesterday:

Taiwan says weather not seen as cause of plane crash that killed 48

There's also these:

Algeria lost contact with Air Algerie aircraft: APS state news agency

and currently breaking:

Spain's Swiftair says contact lost with Airbus A320 plane which was expected to land in Algiers; 110 passengers, six crew members on board. Reuters has not yet created a slug for this story as it just occurred.

And as far as MH17 goes, this:

Exclusive: Ukraine rebel commander acknowledges fighters had BUK missile

I'm gonna stay in bed.

I believe the SwiftAir and Air Algerie are the same flight. From what I've heard Air Algerie was chartering the SwiftAir plane.

Obviously early reports on this one.

Yep ... turns out one and the same ... had all sorts of bells going off from Reuters last night about it.
