I Thought Planes Didn't Crash Because of Weather!

An Air France plane is missing, and it is speculated that the plane hit turbulence or a storm.

Ok- you have to hear this.

I was returning from a trip last month, not comfortable with the plane moving up and down. When I asked the flight attendant about it she said "it's just weather." Very matter-of-factly.

I then had a conversation (in my head) with myself about how you never hear of a plane crashing because of weather, or turbulence. When I saw the flight attendant by the bathroom and thanked her for talking me through it, she continued to try and comfort me, saying planes don't crash because of turbulence.

Well, did Air France crash because of turbulence?
