Mistaken identity? Russian media putting a spin...
Malaysian Airlines MH17 plane was travelling almost the same route as Russia’s President Vladimir Putin’s jet shortly before the crash that killed 295, Interfax news agency reports citing sources.
“I can say that Putin’s plane and the Malaysian Boeing intersected at the same point and the same echelon. That was close to Warsaw on 330-m echelon at the height of 10,100 meters. The presidential jet was there at 16:21 Moscow time and the Malaysian aircraft - 15:44 Moscow time,” a source told the news agency on condition of anonymity.
"The contours of the aircrafts are similar, linear dimensions are also very similar, as for the coloring, at a quite remote distance they are almost identical", the source added.
At the same time, there have been reports contradicting Intefax’s report that was the first and the only media source to publish the news, saying that Presidential plane was not flying over Ukraine at the same time.
As a source told Gazeta.ru online news portal, Putin’s plane does take off from Vnukovo-3 [the terminal that accepts business jets], but the president does not fly over the conflict-gripped neighboring country.
“Putin has only one jet – Board One, he does not fly other planes. This plane always takes off from Vnukovo-3, but the presidential plane have not been flying over Ukraine for a while,” the source at Vnukovo-3 terminal said.
President Putin was on his way from Brazil, where he attended the BRICS summit, to Moscow.
Flight MH17 crashed in Ukraine on a flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, and was carrying 295 people.
The passenger Boeing-777 was expected to enter Russian airspace at 5:20pm local time, but never did, a Russian aviation industry source was cited by Reuters.
“The plane crashed 60km away from the border, the plane had an emergency beacon,” ITAR-TASS cited its source.

MH17 Flight Passenger Made An MH370 Joke Before Takeoff (Photo)
Karma subscribers are convinced that one of the Dutch passengers killed in Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 this morning sealed his fate by cracking a joke about missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 before boarding.
Shortly before the Boeing 777 was shot down, Facebook user Cor Pan wrote underneath a picture of the aircraft:
"In case we go missing, here’s what it looks like."
The user was one of the 295 people onboard the flight traveling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.
It’s unclear how many people were killed when the plane was initially struck by a ground-to-air missile or when it crashed right outside the Ukrainian city of Donestsk, occupied by rebels seeking to become a part of Russia.Last edited by Monseratto; July 18th, 2014 at 08:39 AM.

The news channels have been reporting about Ukrainian military planes being shot down in that area. I find it surprising that the airline companies haven't thought about avoiding that area until this happened.
