Russian superjet goes missing during test flight with 44 on board, reports say

Today there has been a mystery that has caused much alarm through out the Russian continent. A Russian jet, Sukhoi Superjet 100 vanished when flying over the Indonesian coast by Jakarta.

With 44 people aboard the plane emergency measures have been taken to try and find the plane and its missing passengers.

The plane went off the radar when flying over the island nation. Aboard were Indonesian businessmen and Russian foreign officials. They were together on a test flight for a potential buy out of the airlines and its airplanes.

Obviously this being a very bad start for a potential example of Russian air technology. Indonesian officials stated that the plane seemed to just fall from the sky, and with that there have been search parties out looking for a potential crash. But at this moment the plane has been a mystery to its whereabouts, and its passengers.

This flight was part of a traveing roadshow for Russian airplanes in a bid for an emergence for products onto the aviation market. Being a bad start for their start of trying to sell their merchandise, we have to hope that somehow the plane could have landed safely along with the passengers aboard.

There was a distress signal aboard right before the plane fell off the radar. The message was muffled, but it might have been don't buy this plane!
