Flight MH370

[Muskokan]

Thought I would start a thread on this to pass time, this topic has really interested me since the flight went missing almost a month ago.

Satilite footage has led authorities to believe it's in an area of ocean west of Perth, but so far not a single peice of debris has been found.

Thismorning their "ping" detectors looking for the black box signal picked up something, but it is not confirmed to be the missing plane, even though the frequencies are the same as a 777.

Thoughts go out the people on board and there families.

What do you guys think happened?
They they'll ever find it?
Natural disaster or human error/attack?

At first I was thinking explosion in mid air, they ruled that out by saying they could see the plane when it lost contact and there was no sign of an explosion.
Started to lean towards a hijacking but it's been a month now and nothing, and to many holes now.

Aliens.

Haven't heard it mentioned in a couple weeks but the transponder was "diliberatly" turned off at a perfect time between two air spaces.

And if this plane was hijacked or went down, what about all the people with cell phones? At that altitude it would take longer than you think to reach the ocean, so not one panicked txt or phone call? No signal?

When you loose an iPhone, you have way to find where it is and retract it. This is an airplane and they don't have any GPS chip installed on it or the black box? How can you miss an airplane without a trace of it?

I agree, it's likely that a new system with better flight recording and streaming capabilities will be the end result of this.

Loophole or bramuta triangle type of thing

Aliens opened up a portal and they flew through it.

Government coverup of some sort...everything the news spews out is complete BS

It's in Pakistan. I'm being completely serious.

Hope they find something from that Chinese ship that heard the ping or whatever

There are still huge patches of the world where there is no radar or radio coverage out over the oceans. The only way to communicate after that is via satellite. ACARS and other emergency communication methods are very expensive, and seldom used.

Likely there was a fire aboard the plane, in which case the pilots would immediately pull the buses (like circuit breakers) in an attempt to cut power to the system that was causing the fire. If the fire had been below the cockpit (for example a smoldering tire from a heavy takeoff on a hot tarmac, such was the case in MH370) it's likely that most of the communications systems could have been destroyed with no hope of restoring them.

The pilot would have likely turned the plane towards the nearest airport capable of landing his plane. Which I think they've proven that there was such an airport along the suspected 'mystery trajectory'

This fire, would probably incapacitate/kill the pilots and all the passengers if the smoke continued to fill the cockpit/cabin. Then the plane would keep flying until it ran out of fuel.

I still call shenanigans on this whole ordeal. People can justify what allegedly happened but I firmly believe we may never know the REAL truth of what happened to this plane; just the truth they want us to believe.

As a commercial pilot, I find this all pretty perplexing.

From the beginning, my theory has been that this is some sort of hypoxia and depressurization issue. Aircraft flew under partial auto pilot till it crashed. This has happened before. The million dollar question is, how does the aircraft depressurize without the pilots catching it in time.

My other thought is this.


Plane was hijacked, flown to a place that guided it in and told no one. They're filling it up with bombs. They're going to take out the president and unleash hell.
