Excellent Video of Malaysian Flt 17 being hit by missile -

Excellent Video of Malaysian Flt 17 being hit by missile -

Looks like the right engine and wing area took the hit. Note the camera operator is able to record the moment of impact in the first 2 seconds of this clip. Note the smoke burst left behind on impact with the #2 engine area. There is a 18 second delay (speed of sound delay) due to the distance and altitude of the explosion. Question: how did this video operator know to have his camera running just prior to the missile explosion? How many people run their camera in the sky looking for an airplane cruising at altitude so high that most are not visible to the human eye? Note that the pilots are maintaining wings level, the airplane and burning wing still intact, in what appears to be an uncontrolled descent from 33,000 feet when the video ends at 1+19sec.

This video was posted on June 6th, more than a month before Malaysian flight 17 was reported shot down. This is the wrong plane and an unrelated video.
