MH 370 KUL-PEK Missing: 8 - 14 Mar 2014 UTC - ARCHIVE WEEK #1
 

Just saw a post on Twitter from MH that flight 370 has gone missing from ATC. Anyone here have info on it? Hope everything is ok and no one here is on board. :(

MH 370 KUL-PEK Missing: Search and rescue activated
 

MAS says Beijing-bound MH370 failed to land at 6.30am, went missing at 2.40am. Search and rescue activated for 227 passengers, 12 crew

Don't have further details as it came from a tweet from another forum. Operated by a 772.

Here's hoping they are safe.

Lets all pray for a miracle even though it doesn't look so good at this point.

BBC have this:

Looks like the aircraft involved is 9M-MRO

Prayers to everyone on board and their families. Hoping for a positive outcome

Would be the 3rd or 4th hull loss for a 777.

This doesn't sound good :(

Pray that everyone is found safe and well.

can someone aware me on what lose contact actually means? is it that it could have been hijacked? or that its probably sent a distress and gone down but the media want to be sensitive about reporting it? or could it just be a problem with their communication equipment?

Being widely reported now by the U.S. media.
