Malaysia Airlines loses contact with plane carrying 239 people
Malaysia Airlines says it has lost contact with a plane with 239 aboard enroute from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.

The airline said in a statement early Saturday it was attempting to locate the Boeing 777 after it lost contact with Subang Air Traffic Control at 2:40 a.m. It was scheduled to land in Beijing at 6:30 a.m.

China's state-run news agency Xinhua reported the plane was lost in airspace controlled by Vietnam, and did not make contact with Chinese air traffic controllers.

The plane is carrying 227 passengers, including two infants, and 12 crew members. The airline said it is working with authorities to locate the plane.

Boeing said on its Twitter account it is monitoring the situation, and "our thoughts are with everyone on board."

I assume the ground is the same whether you are 50 ft above it and taking off, or 50 ft above it and landing. So I'm curious why the landing is more dangerous.

Airplane is configured differently....

Taking off, you are accelerating, creating more lift, removing drag and climbing... Retracting landing gear, etc....

Landing you are introducing more drag and aerodynamic changes to keep the plane flying at slower speeds.

I could get really complicated on this, but that is the short and sweet version.

I was kidding. I would imagine a combination of the following (maybe Reerun can confirm):

On approach, your plane is going about 1.3 x stall speed. A good, sudden tailwind, and...

Engines are just above idle versus full power at take off.

Aliens.

Yeah, the pilot of my last flight must have been ex-navy. I think he forgot his plane didn't have a hook.

well, on takeoff you are never trying to touch the ground and the engines are going full blast to make sure of it. Even if something minor happens you'll probably still manage to not touch the ground.

You are touching the ground on every single landing. And yes, I am more nervous on landing than during takeoff. During takeoff I'm relaxed and enjoying the view.

You can tell the difference between Air Force and Navy pilots.

I';ve tried to figure out over the past several years why I've developed this fear, when I used to enjoy it so much, and I really think it's a control thing. As I've gotten older, I've grown a fear of loss of control that I didn't care so much about when I was younger. So I've often wondered if I took some flight lessons, if that might alleviate it. It wouldn't give me the control, but I wouldn't be at such a disadvantage knowledge-wise.
