Jake Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) According to the prime minister of Malaysia, the investigation is now focused on a deliberate act of the cockpit crew or they were forced under duress. I've been closely following the developments of this global mystery and found it very frustrating to wait for more details about track data from radar and satellite coverage. I'm sure US FAA and NTSB officials in Malaysia are steaming right now. I smell a rat and it's call politics and culture differences slowing down this important investigation. There are many countries in that region that either have technology and overlying coverages that could compare to western standards. But already Pakistan flatly said no contacts of the Boeing triple 7 into their airspace. My most immediate reaction to that was met with skepticism. Additionally, India decided to quit among the couple dozen other nations that will continue to search for this mysterious aircraft. In my experience as a senior combat system (radar and communications) on board a warship sailing in the southern Indian Ocean and eventually inside Persian gulf, there are so many ways to hide or deceive anyone trying to track you. Take the scenario of a rogue pilot trying to hide its tracks by squawking false transponder codes. It was done a few times during our Persian Gulf patrol. The Iranian air force at the time had F-4 phantoms and F-14 Tomcats and US trained. Fortunately, our on board intelligence had all the flight schedules of each commercial routes in that volatile region. Code named Cowboy, these Iranian pilots would try to blend in by squawking comair. They didn't get very far -- we would either light them up or send our own F-14 to do a VIS-ID. Unfortunately, it's a matter of time to evaluate all the radar and satellite data in that region, provided the government or its military is willing to give out that information. I'm hoping it's coming from US sources (including NASA and CIA) that would crack this mystery once and for all. I could not imagine how much suffering those friends and families are willing to endure. My heart and prayers are with them......

Jollygoodfellow Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 There are a lot of theory's of what might of happened, here is the latest. The Malaysian Airlines flight missing for more than a week could have been taken over using a mobile phone in the world's first "cyber hijack", suggests a British anti-terror expert. Dr Sally Leivesley, a former science advisor for the UK's Home Office, told the Sunday Express that "malicious codes" buried in the Boeing 777's computers could have been triggered by a mobile phone or USB stick. That may have initiated a "set of processes" which would allow the plane's speed, altitude and direction to be remotely controlled, Dr Leivesley speculated. "It is looking more and more likely that the control of some systems was taken over in a deceptive manner, either manually ... or via a remote device turning off or overwhelming the systems," Dr Leivesley said. She said evidence suggests Flight MH370 may have been taken over by someone with "a very sophisticated systems engineering understanding". "It is possible for hackers ... to get into the main computer network of the plane through the inflight, onboard entertainment system," she said.Dr Leivesley floated the theory days after Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak revealed that MH730's last known recordings indicate there was "deliberate action" to divert the plane. Possible culprits could include criminal gangs, terrorists or a foreign power. In April 2013, German security consultant and pilot Hugo Teso demonstrated it is theoretically possible to hijack a plane remotely using a mobile phone. http://news.ninemsn.com.au/world/2014/03/17/11/11/mh370-hacked-with-mobile-phone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could easily see that old way is now conveniently compress down to a mobile device and made user friendly for anybody. I understand the methods but I'm still confused as to why? Aside from being mastered mind by a mass murderer and without remorse, could this be a terrorist act by still unknown organization with methods and madness to finance, plan and execute almost flawlessly. Can a madman execute this for chit and giggles.....without making any political statement? How does one plan and execute an almost perfect plan to make a triple 7 disappear and 239 souls on board vanish for awhile (it will be eventually found). But if found, will the motivation be discovered as well? I'm sure Hollywood has already signed contracts to make this into great movie next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Americano Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 And in a new twist, it emerged that the pilot's wife and three children moved out of the family's home the day before the plane's disappearance. Also, his political hero was sentenced to prison on the same day. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/missing-malaysian-airlines-flight-mh370-3248001#ixzz2wEA3NHD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeB Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 it emerged that the pilot's wife and three children moved out of the family's home the day before the plane's disappearance If true that would be significant but from what I've read it's speculation that it "may" have happened. But if you buy into that there would have to be collusion between the 2 pilots and they did not request to fly together, it was a random pairing according to the airline. It's possible the older man incapacitated the younger in the cockpit but how likely is that? They have a lot of facts but nothing makes sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 It's possible the older man incapacitated the younger in the cockpit but how likely is that? I suppouse no problem for the older, if the younger don't expect the attack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i am bob Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 (edited) I heard an albino octopus was found where the aircraft was suppose to land. Speculation is the octopus was really an alien and ate the aircraft and all aboard... Just thought I'd be the first one with the totally outlandish theory on what happened...! Sent by using a very long piece of string, a couple tin cans, 2 gaseous monkeys, Tapatalk and my Nexus 4 Edited March 18, 2014 by I am bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeB Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 The airline has identified the co-pilot as the one who gave the last verbal command ("All right, good night") from the plane some minutes after the 1st communication system had been turned off. So much for the "pilot incapacitating the co-pilot" theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call me bubba Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 (edited) has anyone considered FIRE as the cause of the sudden turn.. which is towards the nearest airport. lack of any emergency notice(PAN PAN PAN) Recall the SWISS AIR 111 from jfk to Geneva? they too had turned off the transponder*(of what i recall) and other electrical equipment I'm sure Hollywood has already signed contracts to make this into great movie next year perhaps jake or ONMYWAY you can have a staring role as the hero who solves this mystery jake ONMYWAY Edited March 19, 2014 by Pittman apartments Sgn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
