Let's Pray for MH370

Assalamualaikum

I started this morning with more tears to my eyes. Stuck in traffic to work for almost an hour, listening to Fly.fm news on the MH370, made my heart goes to everyone of family and friends who are involved.


And one of the passengers is my friend. Suhaili Mustafa. She was my unimate in Purdue University since day 1 in 2001 til 2005. We took the same course in Industrial Engineering in the State. 

As far as i've ever known here, she is a very cheerful person and brilliant student. Since there weren't many of Malaysians, we were very closed to one another, tagged along, watched movies together, celebrated Hari Raya together for four years in a row. Oh, there were so many sweet memories of 4 years with her. Praying for her to come back home safely.

First officer, Fariq Ab.Hamid, a Malaysian, is aged 27. He has a total flying hours of 2,763 hours. He joined Malaysia Airlines in 2007.

2 Hours into flight. 140miles of the east Malaysia coast at 35,000ft. Its cruising in clear weather.

All Boeing 777s come equipped with transponders that transmit updates to air traffic controllers, but Flight MH370 never reported anything amiss. The jets also carry emergency beacons so that if something goes wrong, search teams can find the plane — but no signals were received from MH370′s beacon.
