    Ok.
    Finnish military also have BUK systems and they simply said it does not shoot friendly targets, but they did not clarify how it detects a friendly target.
    (they said that without the command vehile (+radar unit), it's not possible to separate civilian planes from military planes. (detection should then be done by human eye)

    (seems pretty clear that the other side had at least one BUK system and the other side had 3...8 systems on the area)

    UPDATE / observation:
    It would seem the debris and bodies are searched from a diameter of 2km area.
    I think that when a plane is exploded wide open at the height of 10km travelling some 900kmh/h the debris will spread to a length of some 5++ km. And from russian radar it could be seen that when hit the main remains of the plane made a sharp ~90% degree turn in the air before coming pretty vertically down.
    So the whole area from the hit position to the crash zone needs to be covered thoroughly. Huge operation.
    And as serach for debries/bodies can not be done by manned helicopters (rebels would accidentally shoot them down in a second), unmanned drones / RC-helicopter-cameras should be used, etc, etc...
    It sickens me that neither war party truly care about the loss of innocent people, they continue like nothing happened.
    (both NATO and Russia have the power to wipe the area clean. And if doing it together, it would be insanely cool show of the sanity of the big leaders.)

    So far, the war continues on the area of MH-17 crash.
