Anyone remember Payne Stewart's plane crash? Plane took off in Florida, depressurized at altitude and literally flew across the country with everyone on board dead until it ran out of fuel and crashed. I wonder if something similar may have occurred here as well?


can that happen on a commercial airplane?


Yes

Helios Airways Flight 522

in this case, having not been found for a week, im guessing families are hoping for land at this point.



I just hope we don't find out this plane somehow made a decently survivable landing in the ocean, only for the survivors to die waiting around to be found.

Thats why you nose dive that plane in a hurry and get to a decent altitude. Like on the southwest flight.

I can't say that didn't happen, but they most likely would have found it with the plane being fully intact. IF it was in the area it was supposed to be.

Based on what I know from talking with an off duty Southwest Filight attendant on a flight once: Their biggest concern was customer wifi.

She actually helped stop a potential terrorist attack on Southwest Airlines (flight to Seattle) according to her story. After they arrested the foreign national, she never heard another peep - but the threat was related to Wifi.

Couple that with BOENING's wifi security warning issued in November of 2013

quote:

(U.S. Office of the Federal Register, November 2013) -- These special conditions are issued for the Boeing Model 777-200, -300, and -300ER series airplanes. These airplanes, as modified by the Boeing Company, will have novel or unusual design features associated with the architecture and connectivity of the passenger service computer network systems to the airplane critical systems and data networks. This onboard network system will be composed of a network file server, a network extension device, and additional interfaces configured by customer option. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature. These special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards.

And you get a possible scenario that the plane's computers and electronics were hijacked in flight. That would explain a few of the missing details on why there was no transmissions and certain phones of passengers on the plane are still active.

Stops transponding, turns around and then flies a few hundred miles almost assures a hijack. And the no ELT signal still is key in this. Soooo....it's landed somewhere is my current guess.
