Malaysia Airlines Plane

I'm starting to think someone flew this plane to another location, for some reason, there was a report that it was flown between waypoint locations to avoid civilian air traffic radar detection. All of the information coming out seems to be from military radar.
 
Its not inconceivable the plane could have been hijacked, made invisible but something went wrong and ditched on land somewhere remote. As this crash test example the engines remained running at full power so any data would still be sent.

However its very strange if it has crashed on land that no-one saw it happen or any survivers have made contact.

Its kinda like throwing a 5p coin in a stadium and then trying to search for it in the dark with a torch.

Is it possible that the plane has been deliberately ditched into the sea like the one that landed in the Hudson river & has gently sunk leaving no debris?

I think the pilot might have mentioned it if he was going to do that :)

Maybe not if he had a gun at his head, many many things don't add up with this story.
 
Another thing that has been bothering me, on a civilian aircraft why would it even be possible to turn the transponder off in flight?

I understand that it may not be desirable to be switched on whilst on the ground but couldn't it be automatically configured to only be off if landing gear = down & airspeed = zero?
 
On Virgin flights you can use wifi on your devices, think voice as well. In the air, the phone wouldn't get a normal mobile signal anyway, but the flight has its own "network" which you can connect to and use. Think its the same cost as international roaming charges.

I rang my colleague the other day whilst waiting for him to turn up and it was ringing...then I saw him walking towards me on his phone to someone else, but it hadn't gone into voicemail. Doesn't the phone network record the "last" state of the phone? So if the last state was connected and not on a call, then it suddenly loses contact without being able to send an update (like I think it does when switching off etc), won't the network think its still on? Presumably though it would time out eventually.

Still such a mystery as how a plane can get lost...

Lockheed should be paying attention, new stealth technology phoeey... take a 10 year old boeing and switch the electronics off.
 
You should have watched Gogglebox instead :thumbsup:

......Cazza you remind me of the posh woman that's always pissed!! :lol:
 
Plane was flown by a pilot in military corridors not monitored by commercial aviation radar.

When flying there in that area and asking for a diversion controllers always refused due to military corridor. They were adamant about it.

Hence someone flew this jet purposely in the military corridor as un identified traffic is always there and never questioned.

The question is why did they do it. And if no one saw them did they plunge it into the ocean?
 
Hijacked! Either one of two things, either terrorists wanted a plane to use because security has gotten too tight and they have something planned in retaliation for Bin Laden and his Son-in-Law, or pirates and expect ransom demands.
 
My guess is that it's currently sat on the tarmac of a disused military airfield somewhere in India or Pakistan.
