This one didn't have to fly over any water so it will definitely turn up.

Me thinks either Boko Haram or Al-Quaeda is behind this one.

Sand Storm

Idk how accurate this UK report is, but it says a sand storm.

It doesn't say if that is what the caused the crash though, so who knows.

Daily flights! World Map - YouTube

Pretty amazing there aren't more plane crashes. I have heard plenty of first hand accounts of African airport and flight conditions, scary to say the least.

Europe is lit up like a Christmas tree on that video.

Quick Google search, about 100,000 scheduled flights per day with about 10,000 airplanes in the air at any given time. Number roughly doubles if you add charters and cargo.
