To whomever it might concern,
When is Air France going to publish the list of passengers?
Thanks,

The report today of a missing Air France jetliner that crashed over the Atlantic re-ignites the discussion about GPS flight tracking and its safety benefits. When events like this occur, we have to ask why anyone would take the chance that an accident like this might occur in a remote location where the aircraft would be difficult, if not impossible, to find. The costs of searching for a downed aircraft runs in the hundreds of thousands while the investment in GPS flight following to exactly pinpoint an aircraft in near real-time is nominal. Our hearts go out the families of those lost in the crash and strengthens our claim that there is no valid reason for not making autonomous flight tracking an integral part of your organization’s Safety Management System. Blue Sky Network flight tracking solutions can help eliminate the deficiency.

Is there any sign of foul play or does it really look like a weather-related disaster?

There was a earthquake in this area at Sunday, May 31, 2009, 00:47:04 UTC. It is possible this aircrash has been a result of a major gas leakage from this earthquake.
