I had a seriously strange dream about this flight. For one it had taken off on a relatively steep angle, the engines started to ice over and there a pink plasma surrounded the wings when the aircraft was at a high altitude. Strange dream. The reality is the air craft pitot tube had frozen over, causing a series of problems with the aircraft's instrumentation.

God has nothing to do with this accident. Read the facts. If god existed in fact - would such an accident happen!!!!! Im a English girl living in RIo and have completed this route over 20 times. Please people, stop being so ignorant.

I'm taking EXACTLY this route from brazil to france with airfrance in May. Probably same type of airplane too,

I'm scared to bits, but I hope God will be with us. But that's probably what alot of people on that flight said too. :(
