[quote]The head of Egypt's state-run provider of air navigation services says that EgyptAir flight 804 did not swerve or lose altitude before it disappeared off radar, challenging an earlier account by Greece's defence minister.
Ehab Azmy, head of the National Air Navigation Services Company, told The Associated Press news agency on Monday that in the minutes before the plane disappeared it was flying at its normal altitude of 37,000 feet, according to the radar reading.
He said: "That fact degrades what the Greeks are saying about aircraft suddenly losing altitude before it vanished from radar."
According to Greece's defence minister Panos Kammenos, the plane swerved and dropped to 10,000 feet before it fell off radar. [/quote]
[quote]The search for EgyptAir's Airbus A320 is especially challenging because its wreckage lies in one of the deepest parts of the Mediterranean, at a depth of 2,000-3,000 metres, which is on the edge of the range for hearing pinger signals.[/quote]

genuinely intrigued to see the air crash investigation episode
It's a conspiracy that planes always crash in warzone or the deepest part of whatever body of water
Didn't the pilot report a fire on board when the descent began?
The pilot didn't report a fire but the ACARS automatically reported the switching of several smoke detectors in the aircraft, including a lavatory, within a short time of each other.

Well theres your problem.
Plus aircraft tend to fly over the ocean pretty much everywhere
Seems like an explosion or disintegration of some sort.
