Indeed, you beat me to it. Air France jetliner leaving Rio to Paris
"literally" (according to news) dissapeared over the Atlantic Ocean
and like you said, "at least" 228 passengers on board.

Not a good thing, one of the people interviewed said this was
"extremely" out of the norm for a jetliner in that particular area to
simply cease to exist. Very strange, lets hope everything turns out
well for the passengers and crew.
