If you're wondering about the AirAsia accident, that was likely an inflight break up/total failure instead of a AF447 issue given that the ADS stopped transmitting immediately at altitude vice transmitting all the way to the impact.

Looks like they will find this one so we should know what happened.
Debris field is in 100-140 feet deep water. Should be fairly easy to find it and recover the wreckage.

Because the "CNN expert pilots" always know what they are talking about.

Two bodies shown so far had clothes ripped off down to just undies. This is consistent with previous MH17, Pan Am over Lockerbie, Bashkirian 2937, etc: in flight breakup and free fall of passengers where the aerodynamic forces rip all clothing off.
Based on this, and the rapid stop of ADS signal, it's starting to look like an inflight breakup.
