There were no signs of mecahnical faliure, the plane took off one hour late, that means if it was a timed bomb the plane would have gone down over oh lets say random VERY VERY deep place in the atlantic ocean. The plane was an easy shop for all sorts of shoulder launched SAM's.
According to the information I have seen, there are no SAM's that can reach out and touch a plane at 13000 feet. The engagement ceiling on a most is 8000 to 9000 feet iirc.
