There were errors in the list so perhaps he never flew. But still, I’d think if he was living he’d have called them. He could well be in heaven now. Good news for him, but sad for a while for those from whom he has parted.

The Vietnamese military search over the waters near the suspected crash.

This is all so sad. I feel so bad for this family. My heart goes out to them, indeed.

I was wondering if our Dear Leader has issued any statement of hope or sympathy to the world and the families in regards to this tragedy. Have I missed any such words he's uttered since returning from his luxurious vacation?

Modern airplane wing. Probably ships waiting to unload at a busy port.

If the missing flight is in the Gulf Of Thailand it should be located pretty soon. The deepest part is less than 300 feet and it averages around 150.
The whole Gulf was above water in the last ice age.

Not yet, but I was shocked to see he has the Navy looking for wreckage. Surprised he would even go that far.
