If it was CL60 D-ANKE, it had been detected on SBS flying over the central UK between 22:40 / 22:50 local, the day before, Christmas Day. C/s was JCX8401 and Hex-S code 3C7965.  

Sympathies to all affected.  

Is there anybody out there?

Procuror.kz are quoting the registration as D-ARWE. The aircraft is in the same colour scheme as D-ANKE. Some more info courtesy of stuff.nz on the aircraft's route suggest it was on a refuelling stop en route from Hanover to Macau.

Photo's can be seen here courtesy of Vecher.kz.

I hope this is not the icing problems we've seen before with this type in these conditions.

Condolences to all affected by this accident.

Make it so, number one
