AirAsia Flight 8501 Missing; My Second Worst Nightmare
In case you haven’t heard yet, there’s another missing plane. This time it’s AirAsia’s flight 8501, traveling from Surabaya, Indonesia to Singapore. AirAsia is a solid airline with a good safety record. While it’s still early to rule out any cause at this point, thunderstorms/severe weather are suspected as contributing to the disappearance.
