Malaysia Airlines Flight 370

[BobD]

Here are four theories. Is there another possibility? A conspiracy theory.

Malaysia Airlines Flight 370: Four scenarios - CNN.com

I'm curious. I'M NOT SAYING I THINK THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED, but I got to wondering.....

Is it / would it be, possible to steal an entire 777? Could they have dropped below radar and landed somewhere? Is that even possible? If so what are the odds? They showed YouTube video of the pilot today. He had a flight simulator in his house. There were two people with stolen passports. Where are they? Why are there NO signs of them? What do you think happened?

So bizzare. It's been almost 4 days and no signs or indication of where the plane might be.

This is seriously some crazy Bermuda triangle level shit. I don't know how a plane just disappears.

Anyone I've talked to, or heard talk, with any real knowledge of these big planes seem to believe the only thing that could have happened is a catastrophic event...

If it did indeed explode and disintegrate in mid-air, I just don't understand how there is not one bit of debris near where the radar last tracked the plane before it dropped out of sight.

Like a bomb, missile, alien, etc.?

Wildman is an air traffic controller. I wonder what he thinks?

If the plane exploded or broke up, there would have to be debris.

I read somewhere that 19 separate families of loved ones tried calling them and they all rang and then answered and got disconnected right away. Weird if true.

Yep... Except maybe the last one...

What? Really? Where did you read this?

Somebody had to do it.

I talked to some air force pilots today and all believe that there was some mechanical breakdown that caused the plane to break apart and disintegrate.

A Boeing 777 can carry almost 45,000 gallons of fuel. I have no idea how much fuel was in this plane, but even if it was a 1/4 full, you would not be able to miss the massive 10k plus fuel slick it would have left if it would have crashed.

If it exploded, it would have had to incinerate to not leave debris everywhere. This is a huge plane.

Who knows what happened, but pair those two facts with the fact that two stolen passports were used by two men with tickets paid for by an Iranian, then I don't see it as unrealistic that this plane was hijacked. Where or if it is still around is bizarre, but totally reasonable question to be asking, imo.

Let's say it was hijacked. What about this particular plane would make it worth hijacking?

They could have shut off radio transmissions and tracking, then flown the plane way off course. If they were taking the plane down anyways I don't know why they would do this. However, one would think if it was a terrorist attack that someone would have taken credit for it by now.

Yeah, something is just odd here... Who knows

Unless they want to do it again soon??

I heard several "experts" including a 777 pilot say that even though rare not seeing debris is not impossible even with that size of plane. They all said it was something catastrophic. The pilot thought it was either an extremely large bomb, the plane structurally failed or it was intentionally flown into the ocean.

All said a plane that size would be traveling 600-700 MPH if it went straight down. Pretty gruesome, but they said the largest human remain would be the size of a babies hand.

The pilot also said that if the pilots were able they could glide a plane that size to the ground. According to him, it would be airborne 20-30 minutes and would more than likely only break into pieces upon hitting the water. This scenario would have allowed them time to radio in so obviously they were not able to do this.

Air France Flight 477 also "disappeared" without any distress calls (ended up crashing in the ocean due to a malfunction). I think there is a 90%+ probability that the plane crashed in a similar vein. The stolen passport issues are interesting, but from what I read many passports are stolen by illegal immigrants in Malaysia and used to enter Western Europe.

Very true...this would not be a total red flag if that was the only issue, but the tickets purchased for the two using the stolen passports was by an Iranian national and was a cash purchase. Both tickets were one way as well (which can be used to support both scenarios).

 

[BobD]

Someone's odds are probably better to hit the lottery than to go missing for four days with 238 others and an entire 777.

It had 7 hours of flight time left, I don't know how much fuel that translates to, but I'd assume it's a lot.

They weren't going only to Beijing though, one ticket's final destination was Frankfurt and the other's was Copenhagen.

Strange thing also are the reports that radar showed the plane starting to turn around. Not sure if that was true or just rumor.

 

[gkIrish]

Just throwing shit on the wall here...

I'm of the opinion that there was no explosion and the plane is still out there somewhere under some serious camouflage. So why is it missing?

Is it possible that this story is a complete fabrication by the Malaysian government? Aren't the "relatives" in "quarantine?"

All the passengers are in on it and being paid by a rival airline??

Or even better, Malaysia Airlines did this themselves. There's no such thing as bad publicity...especially if the plane is found safe and sound somewhere. Wait ...this is actually completely plausible...

This is true. Coupled with the phone call/instant messenger thing it seems very weird.

Also, in movies and stuff, they always have this kind of conspiracy shit happen. It's always to take out some important guy or steal some important thing on the plane. I think it's entirely possible that there was some sort of hijacking and then... who knows.

Or aliens.
