Air France flight 447 is missing.

In today's day and age, with today's technology how on earth do we lose a plane?

It has sadly gone down. The amazing question is where and why?

Air France has said that Flight AF 447 sent an automatic signal indicating electrical problems while going through strong turbulence early in its 11-hour flight from Rio de Janeiro to Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. It is listed as an Airbus A330-200 with registration F-GZCP, had been in operation since April 2005.

Thoughts and prayers to the families.
