The captain of doomed Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 selected a route that would effectively render the plane invisible on radar in order to commit suicide, experts said Sunday.
The suspicion that MH370 Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah was attempting suicide was agreed upon, aviation experts said in a panel discussion on 9 News Australia.

"He was killing himself; unfortunately, he was killing everybody else on board, and he did it deliberately," Larry Vance, a former senior investigator with the Transportation Safety Board of Canada, said.

Most of the wreckage from the airliner has never been found and bodies have never been recovered.

It was the copilot. The pilot went to relieve himself and when he came back he found himself locked out of the cabin. The copilot flew the plane into the side of a mountain killing himself, the crew and 149 passengers. He had been on leave because of stress. Guess he wasn't all better.

Why? People are selfish.

Then an FO and/or an FA were complicit.

Yep. Can’t disagree with you

So how did he keep the crew out of the cabin ?

I call bullshite.
I believe it was a fire in the cockpit.
Fire either disabled comms and transponder or pilots did as part of emergency checklist. (Circuit breakers reset)
The sudden and deliberate turn directly to a long runway in Malaysia makes me think he was diverting and couldn’t communicate. By the time he turned it was too late. Crew was incapacitated due to fire/smoke.
Plane continues to fly on same heading until fuel is exhausted.

That plane is in a hanger in either Afghanistan or Pakistan getting retooled.
Posted on 5/14/18 at 2:53 pm to Major Dutch Schaefer
They can't know this with any certainty. They can't even find the damn plane.

also, you really think a 777 can fly into a warzone without being detected on radar?

It's not as fun to talk about if it's not fantastical but pilot suicide has always made the most sense.
