Been a devastating air crash in Egypt this morning, north of Sharm-el-Sheikh, all 224 passengers on board Kogylymavia flight 9268 from Sharm-el-Sheikh to St Petersburg Pulkovo airport.
This concerns me as I was in Sharm at Easter and I am supposed to be going back in July 2016. There probably will not be an answer unless the BEA join the investigation team.

I love the A321. I've flown on 4 of BA's fleet and I much prefer them to the A320/A319. Seem 'more' of an aircraft, so to speak.

That aside, what a tragic event. It seems to be a leased aircraft from Ireland. There's rumors on the net (airliners.net forum) that the pilot wanted to make a landing at Cairo due to 'engine difficulties'.

Jump to post 57. It'll be interesting to see what transpires. 

I've flown with Rossiya (now owned by Aeroflot) on one of their A319s. I had a Russian-registered one when I flew St Petersburg - Amsterdam on a KLM codeshare. This was the year when there was a few Russian aviation incidents, including the one involving Lokomotiv Yaroslavl' and their hockey team. The service onboard, the age of the aircraft and just general appearance did not give me a good feel for Russian aviation. Needless to say, when I go back nowadays to LED or DME, I fly BA.

I think what's also interesting is that there's a lot of Irish-leased aircraft operating in Russia. The likes of Transaero, Rossiya and this airline all fly them. I wonder if it was a dry/damp/wet lease agreement.

You're edging on a stall at that speed. You want to be pitching down to get glide speed as per the US Airways A320 that landed on the Hudson. Any slight upward movement would have stalled at that speed.

If you read through the full thread on PPRuNe (which is a forum with many thousands of pilots on) it seems almost certain that the aircraft broke apart in mid air. This could be caused by a missile strike, however it could also be caused by some catastrophic failure... This airframe did suffer a tail strike back in 2004, in Cairo ironically, which could be a point to look at, if this has caused some fatigue that has eventually failed.
It will be interesting to see what the investigators find
