EgyptAir Flight 804 Missing Without A Trace

An EgyptAir flight disappeared on it's way from Paris to Egypt resulting in loss of 56 passengers and 10 crew members. 


The plane was flying at 37,000 feet when it vanished shortly after entering Egyptian airspace.

 It was suppose to land in Cairo at 3:15 a.m. Thursday after leaving Paris' Charles de Gaulle Airport at 11:09 p.m. local time.

CNN's aviation correspondent Richard Quest said, "Planes just do not fall out of the sky for no reason, particularly at 37,000 feet."

He said the plane vanished while cruising -- the safest part of the journey.

 We'll update the story as more details emerge.
