Jean-Paul Troadec, former president of the French air accident investigation bureau (BEA) has 'speculated' that anything could have happened to the missing possible EgyptAir Flight 804, including a 'terrorist' attack.
He was asked by Europe 1 to speculate on what caused the plane’s disappearance and his claim was seconded by the Egyptian Prime Minister. |

“We have to remain very careful after the disappearance from the radars of the EgyptAir aircraft. The priority is to begin the investigation and to find, if possible, debris from the aircraft and eventually, the site of the wreckage.
"We can make certain hypotheses...there’s a strong possibility of an explosion on board from a bomb or a suicide bomber. The idea of a technical accident when weather conditions were good, seems also possible but not that likely."
As authorities ponder and continue to comb through the rough seas for the missing airline and 66 people aboard, many questions remain unanswered.
"We could also consider a missile, which is what happened to the Malaysia Airlines aircraft in July 2014. If the crew didn’t send an alert signal, it’s because what happened was very sudden.
"A problem with an engine or a technical fault, would not produce an immediate accident. In this case, the crew did not react, which makes us think of a bomb.”
The plane was flying at 37,000 feet when it lost contact overnight above the Mediterranean Sea, the airline tweeted. - Online Sources
