      The article mentions he did an abrupt U turn, before “disappearing off the map”. No mention of crashes or problems. Couldn’t they have just turned off the comms and transponder? These sites normally project the path the airplane will take until the next update from the plane.

        altitude decreased at 15ft/s before disappearing at 1500ish ft, and few minutes later syrian army command informed officers about fall of regime

        i don’t think they just faked it, there’s also no airport there and emergency landing in terrain like this is, i think, quite extravagant option

          That will be one piece of good news this year if he is dead. Fuck that piece of shit. We should’ve listened to our Syrian ambassador Robert Ford and fully supported the FSA.
