Phoenix`s question is worthy of further consideration.
Flight was airborne at 23:10 and crashed at 00:18. I estimate distance to destination was approx 1000 miles, possibly duration of some 2hrs or so.
The crash site near Akkajaure Lake and Tipel (FIR Bdry) would be some 400 miles to run to destination.
I would have thought it early for TOD.
Am not familiar with route. Anyone familiar with the route may perhaps enlighten us further.
