My copy arrived in the mail this morning. Aviation Week reports a few details, like the aircraft tail number, how old it is, and it's last trip thru heavy maintenance (periodic inspection we called it in USAF) All this was quite unexceptional. They gave a map of radar coverage in the area. They did not speculate on the cause of the loss. They went on at some length about electronic reporting and tracking systems the could be installed, if there was funding, but are not present today. That's about it.
No speculation about hijackers, aircrew, Bermuda Triangle, terrorists, bad karma, etc. Aviation Week just reports the facts, of which there are few.
