Whatever is happening with the plane does not look normal at all. I hope everything is fine with them.

Listening to ATC at Lisboa, it sounds like it will be a sea landing!! Thoughts to everyone on board...

Sounds like they have minimal control of the aircraft.

Definitely out of control. Pilots stated they intend to ditch at first. Now on liveATC they have asked for an airport with good weather.

Heading east, currently trying to land at a good weather airport. Sounds like they have more control of the aircraft now..

What is the deal with this plane? It's last flight on fr24 shows MSQ-LIS over a month ago.

Very likely heavy maintenance at LIS. This seems to be the first flight after.

Did they remove the flight from FlightAware? Not able to see it. Any other comparable sites?

When coverage stopped, it has just descended thru 3125 ft. That's the last reading.

Probably due to a lack of satellite signal, seems to be a bit in the middle of nowhere so probably not many FR24 receivers round there.
