I'll leave this here

quote:

(Reuters) - Military radar data suggests a Malaysia Airlines jetliner missing for nearly a week was deliberately flown hundreds of miles off course, heightening suspicions of foul play among investigators, sources told Reuters on Friday.

Analysis of the Malaysia data suggests the plane, with 239 people on board, diverted from its intended northeast route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing and flew west instead, using airline flight corridors normally employed for routes to the Middle East and Europe, said sources familiar with investigations into the Boeing 777's disappearance.

Two sources said an unidentified aircraft that investigators believe was Flight MH370 was following a route between navigational waypoints when it was last plotted on military radar off the country's northwest coast.

That narrows it down considerably. The flight radius includes Pakistan, just barely. But it would have to cross India first and I don't think it could get across India or land in India without being detected. If it landed, it's on an island in the Indian ocean. There can't be too many islands there with an suitable airfield.

ETA: what if the real prize were those 20 computer engineers? They landed somewhere, destroyed the aircraft, disposed of the other passengers, and took off again in another plane with them.

It's a conspiracy theory at the moment, but if true, it qualifies as a genuine conspiracy.
