Malaysian Airlines reels after second aircraft loss in four months

Malaysian Airlines was already struggling financially well before this, but the one thing it had going for it was its safety record.

After the disappearance of MH370, people were starting to weigh up whether or not to fly with the carrier but Malaysian Airlines lowered fares and seemed to be getting back on track.

In just four months, Malaysian Airlines lost more passengers in aviation incidents than the combined total over several years.
