Don't know if this has been posted:

Thailand gives radar data 10 days after plane lost

BANGKOK — Thailand’s military said Tuesday that its radar detected a plane that may have been Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 just minutes after the jetliner’s communications went down, and that it didn’t share the information with Malaysia earlier because it wasn’t specifically asked for it.

A twisting flight path described Tuesday by Thai air force spokesman Air Vice Marshal Montol Suchookorn took the plane to the Strait of Malacca, which is where Malaysian radar tracked Flight 370 early March 8. But Montol said the Thai military doesn’t know whether it detected the same plane.

Has anyone considered the possibility that the plane is in a different where or when?

It's possible a wormhole could have swallowed it up.

How about having the planes system automatically send out a distress signal whenever any transponders are shut off above 2000 ft? Problem solved.

Or make there be a code needed from the tower, like a PIN code, that is necessary for a pilot to change courses on a flight over waterways as this one did.

With only its own radar to go on, it took Malaysia a week to confirm that Flight 370 had entered the strait, an important detail that led it to change its search strategy.

When asked why it took so long to release the information, Montol said, “Because we did not pay any attention to it. The Royal Thai Air Force only looks after any threats against our country, so anything that did not look like a threat to us, we simply look at it without taking actions.”

Airtight logic right here.

How about if the landing gear is up, the transponder can't be switched off.

so with ATC's sleeping in the middle of the night or just not paying attention in general, this plane slipped right past their towers?

wow

How about they only hire pilots that are married with kids and then we hold their kids hostage until they land where they're supposed to?

The current search area is 2.24 million square miles - 10 times the size of Texas.

How can the plane ever be found, especially if it crashed into the Indian Ocean?

We're talking about Malaysia and Thailand; I'm pretty sure a lot things are legal there that aren't legal here.

Going to take a long time.Just hope for debris floating somewhere. The main parts are at the bottom. But it didn't crash yet because it's in a hangar

Next time these people get wiped out by a fricking Tsunami I hope the rest of the world waits 2 weeks before offering them any kind of help. What a bunch of morons.
