Looks like its been shot down

At least they know where they've lost this one. Not a good record this year, hope there weren't many on board.

From the BBC live feed...

16:50: The Associated Press says one of its journalists saw a similar launcher near the eastern Ukrainian town of Snizhe earlier on Thursday.

16:50: An advisor to the Ukrainian interior minister, Antquon Gerashenko, says the plane was flying at an altitude of 10,000 metres (33,000 feet) when it was "hit by a missile fired from a Buk launcher", in a post on his Facebook page, according to the Associated Press.

Definitely - they were already in a perilous financial state before 370; even if it ends up that it wasn't their fault (and this clearly isn't either) they're done for.

17:06: If the deaths on board this flight are confirmed, it would be the second tragedy to strike Malaysia Airlines this year after the disappearance of Flight MH370 in March with 227 passengers and 12 members of crew on board - one of the greatest aviation mysteries of all time.

Suddenly makes me very nervous for my KUL-LHR flight on Saturday.

Final nail in the airline's coffin though.

crookie · Jul 17, 2014

you have to wonder why airlines are overflying what is in effect a conflict zone, with a Ukrainian jet shot down yesterday and other planes and helicopters shot down over the past couple of months. Sensible surely to give the area a wide berth

US stocks have fallen sharply amid reports of the latest Malaysia Airlines flight incident, according to AFP.
