June 1st 2009 marked a tragic and a controversial crash of Air France Flight 447.  216 passengers and 12 crew members lost their lives on the way from Brazil to France when the flight crashed over the Atlantic Ocean, with the cause unknown. The day when the tragedy struck, people were informed that Air France Flight 447 has mysteriously disappeared in thin air. The first thought that many would ponder on is ‘How can a huge machine like an air plane with people on board disappear all of a sudden?’ Well, there is still no relevant answer for that. As per Wikipedia, four possibilities have been discovered so far:

Prior to the disappearance of the aircraft, the automatic reporting system, ACARS, sent messages indicating disagreement in the indicated air speed (IAS) readings. A spokesperson for Airbus claimed that “the air speed of the aircraft was unclear” to the pilots.

An aviation safety expert explained a few days later that “complete failure would require 100% failure of the electrical system,” which “did not happen early in the flight, because the system was uplinking data to the maintenance facility, indicating there was some electricity on the airplane

On 27 May, four days prior to this incident, Air France received a telephoned bomb threat regarding an earlier flight from Buenos Aires in Argentina to Paris

From satellite images taken near the time of the incident, it appears that the aircraft encountered a severe thunderstorm, likely containing hail and extreme turbulence.

To add to the above list, there is video claiming a UFO that followed the same air route through which Air France Flight 447 traveled and the video has been shot just few days after the incident . I know it sounds weird. But it’s not the first time a UFO has been spotted.
