Anyone can shoot down an airliner. They aren't the most nimble and evasive of craft.

The Malaysian military seems to have the most detailed records of the flight path.

Not sure how this fits in with the fact that the plane flew for 4-5 hours from the point of last contact. Lithium fires are intense and would have brought down the plane sooner I would think


Yeah, I think I'm done guessing. Too many conflicting reports. I'll take the wait and see approach, but I'm sticking with hijacking.

I don't think most nations would just shoot down a lone plane with a SAM. I want to think they would send up a jet to intercept it.
Just because you are more likely to be shooting down a passenger jet than a lone first wave attacker.

I don't see India being this way but some will do anything they think they can get away with. To get an accurate assessment, observe what they are willing to do to their own.

I am betting the CIA has investigated every crew member and passenger on the plane...they know if terrorism was a possibility. I still think malfunction or inside job by copilot....whether it's suicide or terrorism is yet to be determined.

Is it possible the pilot damaged the plane during an attempted take over by copilot?

Can someone catch me up with the latest news, hearsay, and rumors on Flight 370 from 8:00 Central until the present?

Another logical explanation is the Romulans covered it up with some sort of cloaking device.

flight may have headed towards certain waypoints out to the Indian Ocean towards the Andaman islands.

Plane may have crashed in south china sea, based on seismic report released this morning.

US is investigating. and had press conference at noon.

no one really knows anything yet.

CNN posts a story giving more legs to the "it landed" theory.

The radar data don't show the plane over the Andaman Islands but only on a known route that would take it there, Reuters cited its sources as saying.

The theory builds on earlier revelations by U.S. officials that an automated reporting system on the airliner was pinging satellites for hours after its last reported contact with air traffic controllers. U.S. investigators concluded that the pings didn't come from other planes, leading some investigators to think the plane flew on for hours before truly disappearing.


The plane flew for 4.5 hours with no communications.

Its a joke bruh.

India is a crazy, go around your elbow to get to your arse place. I assume any effort to shoot down an aircraft by their government would have taken hours to clear all the hurdles.

When questioned why the plane escaped, you get smiles and head nods.

Right, so India would have at least intercepted it and we would know about that incident. So, we should assume it didn't fly near India's airspace...correct?

That may be. But I'm pretty sure they 1) hate Moozlums and 2) have a pretty hefty military. I doubt they'd frick around with a situation like this.

The landing in Pakistan thing seems like a long shot to me being that we have been intensively involved in monitoring Pakistan over the last 14 years after 9-11. The US, CIA has many contacts in that country due to our focus on the terrorism and Al-quaeda in that part of the world. I think we would know who,where and if that plane had landed there by now.

Our satellites (and China's) are ALL OVER other countries and their airfields/airports right now. We are pulling information from every ground asset all over the globe to check for any information regarding this.



It helps when you actually know where in the world to look. We don't just orbit our spy satellites all over the globe looking for a particular object until we finally find it. Imagery satellites are only useful when you know where your target is. Bin Laden anyone? We had virtually every country in the entire world assisting us with finding him and it still took us almost a decade to get him.

I saw that but am having a hard time believing the seismic activity was related to Flight 370. We have been over that area multiple times. If a truly catastrophic event brought that plane down, there would be debris. Not a single piece of debris has been found.
