Hours after an Air France plane bound from Brazil to Paris with 228 people on board disappeared over the Atlantic Ocean, French President Nicolas Sarkozy said the prospect of finding any survivors was “very slim.”

Speaking to reporters at the Charles de Gaulle (CDG) airport, where the missing Flight AF 447 was supposed to land, Sarkozy described Monday’s incident as “the worst” in Air France’s history.

The flight, with mostly Brazilian and French passengers on board, left Rio de Janeiro’s Galeao airport at 7pm Sunday night local time (GMT-3). It was expected at CDG at 11:15am Paris time Monday. The passenger jet was “well advanced” over the Atlantic Ocean before it went missing, according to Brazilian Air Force officials.

every single time i flew back from northern america and Europe we encountered heavy and strong turbulences.

I remember once we were all sleeping and then we entered the Turbulences the pilot had to reduce altitude and then it cooled down. After 10 min the pilot tried to reached the cruising altitude again but the Tubulences became even stronger .

Also on United Airlines flight from Orlando to LAX we entered into a very high clouds and then the captain told the crew to buckle then the aircraft dropped and thanks got all passengers were buckled . The pilot increased the Power engine and made strong turns and try to reached another cruising altitude .

I'm not scared of flying . I flew many airlines from very low cost airlines to Regular Airlines and i trust the pilot .

Now due to the global warming turbulences in the air will become stronger and stronger . So if you're flying anytime soon on any airlines NO WORRIES there is so many planes in the air and the Air Travel is the safest way to travel . It's actually safer than a car .
