The last time I read a news title like this (where they use words like Flight Vanishes) was in 2009 about the Air France Flight 447 from Brazil to France.
I still find this story extremely puzzling for many reasons:
1-Boeing 777 is one of the most technologically advanced and safe planes.
2- Malaysian Airlines are one of the best airline companies in the world.
3- The weather seemed to be clear with no storms or strong wind (unlike the case with the French flight)
4- communication was lost completely with the aircraft.
I'm not an airline expert, but shouldn't be there at least a fallback for the communication protocol being used e.g: radio/satellite/GSM etc .. ?
