    They found that one of the pilots that had the flight simulator in his home deleted information from that simulator... Could be something.

    Wouldn't surprise me if they already do have a backdoor device or at least have more information.... Reports are out there that a source at Boeing said they believe the jet is in Pakistan.... Could be a reason why the US has called off many of its resources from the search...

    It's a coverup to hide the fact that aliens from p23884 abducted the plane, took it to Atlantis and used the occupants for genetic experimentation!


    Or maybe it crashed.

    This whole thing is just way too peculiar. Why would they divert the plane to a completely different course, basically fly it to the middle of nowhere in the Indian Ocean and crash. Where would this flight path have taken them if they didn't crash? Wouldn't they run out of fuel before they could get to land anywhere from there? Wouldn't whoever came up with this plan know this? None of this makes any sense at all.

    This smells of a government cover-up to me.

    Maybe, but they are saying that the crash site is at about the distance they think the plain would have ran out of fuel. I would buy that it was shot down somewhere else, and the crash site they are claiming is being fabricated.

    Well if it did land somewhere it is being loaded with fuel and explosives for round two. Just my 2 cents but one thing is for sure there is a way to fly under the radar and maybe even for the moment hide a large airliner. If you ever landed or taken off at Ohare airport in Chicago you can find just how short of a runway a plane needs to land and takeoff from.

    Maybe it hit the water and will be a while before it's found at this point it's a much better option.

    Sound far-fetched? Civilian aircraft have been shot down before. In 1988, a U.S. Navy warship mistook an Iran Air flight for an attacking fighter jet and shot it down with a missile, killing all 290 passengers and crew. And in September 1983, a Russian fighter jet shot down a Korean Air Lines flight with a U.S. congressman on board.

    I would imagine they wouldn't exactly be jumping up and down trying to claim the mistake..... just saying.

    Why would the tracking systems be turned off hours before it would have been shot down? Was this a terrorist suicide flight by shutting down systems and steering the plane into their terror groups firing range? I have no idea what happened at this point,you could be right.

    What would be the point of highjacking a plane that you already have control of just to crash it into the ocean? Likewise, why change course when you can just dive the plane directly into the water? What purpose would be to turn off the communication system? I think it was either shot down or ran out of fuel and didn't make it to the actual planned landing spot. Either way, there is a bigger story here that I don't think will ever be explained.

    Why is the Maylay PM doing the news conferences instead of the airline boss?

    Willfully, I would say suicide or $ (insurance or reinsurance)

    There was something to hide. There was a series of malfunctions. Or Somebody was trying to make a point.

    Maybe. If it was malice based, though my bet is that it will become known...

    Agreed, the "shot down" seems to be a non-starter.

    #1..?
    Total electric system failure, its a long shot but is possible, pilots decide to make an attempt to turn back, no guidance, flying at night, totally blacked out, enter military radar, cannot be contacted, are not on a known flight path... boom

    #2..?
    Plane is jacked, is headed towards a target, boom

    I have yet to see any solid evidence of a crash site

    Do a little reading on the flights I mentioned in my earlier post, I'm not saying that's what happened but my lil brain isn't ruling it out yet.
