Modi's flight was close behind ill-fated MH17 that was shot down

[thesolar65]

NEW DELHI: While the world struggles to come to terms with the shooting down of the Malaysian passenger aircraft that killed 298 passengers and crew over Ukraine, it has come to light that the Air India flight carrying Prime Minister Narendra Modi was on the same path as the MH17 Boeing 777, a report in The Hindu newspaper has claimed.

The newspaper reported that the prime minister’s flight back to India was rerouted after the incident, in which 298 people died.

Modi’s flight – Air India 1 – had taken off from Frankfurt, Germany, about two hours before the Malaysian airliner was hit supposedly by a surface-to-air missile.

The report said that Modi’s flight would have flown over the same area only some minutes after the Malaysian passenger jet was shot down had it continued on the same flight path.

Meanwhile, it is being speculated that Russian President Vladimir Putin whose flight back to Moscow too was through the same route might have been the real target of the rebels who purportedly shot down the MH17.

Earlier, Putin blamed Ukraine for the incident saying that the nation bore responsibility for the downing of the Malaysian passenger plane and pointing out that it would not have happened if Kiev had not resumed a military campaign against separatists.

Post the source mate.

Modi must've been flying in one of the custom made Boeings,with call sign Air India One, which would've had RWR and Countermeasures

Another IA plane IA -113 was just 25 km. from the spot when MH-17 was shot down.

This is interesting... but not surprising as this route was said to be one of the busiest..... There was a pic of the ill fated flight path in a website which shows real time locations of aircrafts, i could see several other air planes in that area....... But the article says, Putin could have been the real target.... Why would rebels fire at Putin???

What if Air India 1 would have been the target?

I think a link should be provided for this article....

I love conspiracy theories!!

Seriously, why the fuk wasn't a NOTAM issued by all airlines warning them of the dangers of flying over Ukranian air space? Only a handful of airlines had issued it and their planes were taking a circuitous route to avoid getting caught up in the dangerous airspace.

Air India issuing a NOTAM to its pilots? Impossible! They're in perpetual sleep mode and are clueless on WTF is going on in this world.

I heard this, some local news anchor (I think it was sun tv) was saying this might have been a conspiracy to kill Modi , but it was shot down by others.

Now some channels are saying this was actually meant to kill Putin. lol conspiracy theories running wild

Does Indian pilots who fly such planes have specific training to deal with such situation in live scenarios? If not, then they should get training ASAP. Otherwise, it can end very badly like the C 130 crash in India earlier in MArch!

These flights are operated by the Air Headquarters Communications Squadron of the Indian Air Force,so obviously they're well trained.

C-130J crash was not due to poor training,the pilots were performing very dangerous maneuvers , risk was very high.

Blackmailing? lol!

Yes, once the wings fall off, they are instructed to put a paper bag on their heads .
