The Egyptian government has said a terror attack is most likely to have brought down a plane that was flying from France to Egypt with 66 people on board.

The authorities in Egypt say debris found near the Greek island of Karpathos is from a passenger jet which disappeared en route from Paris to Cairo.

As well as gathering information about those on board, investigators will also be looking at the history of the A320 plane. Our transport correspondent, Richard Westcott, considers what is known so far.
