There is so much BS out there.

About as likely as the Devil reaching up and pulling them down, in fact quite a bit less likely.

Statistically, there's a higher probability that they crashed into Santa's Sleigh on his way back to the North Pole after his summer vacation.

Agreed.

And still the media continues to push the conspiracy theories.....................

1370187 2014-03-19 10:24:00 From a pilots perspective this makes the most logical sense yet:

It’s as good as any of the others, but seems to fail in the “Timeline” because the Pilot is said to have already made the left turn when he signed off?

Which in turn raises the question of why the Control Tower didn’t ask him where the hell he thought he was going. :groan:

I’m afraid we are being treated like mushrooms. Kept in the dark and fed s..t. ;)

1370189 2014-03-19 19:53:00 Theories and speculation, unless they find it we'll never know for sure. Maybe not even then.
It's a sad testimony to the state of the world that a plane goes missing and we go straight to theories of hijacking and terrorism. I'd be thinking along the lines of that pilots theory until evidence of foul play was found myself. Lets hope for the families sake they are all alive somewhere but the odds are not great I fear.

My work can GPS track my car and I can't disable it, maybe this is a wake up call that it's time to improve the tracking systems on aircraft. Some sort of isolated standalone tracking system as a backup would seem wise, in this day and age when a plane goes missing I'd expect them to be able to track it's movements.

This incident may force a change in tracking systems
Not because it might save lives , but because it will save $$$ . Theres a huge cost in the loss of a plane, a huge cost in trying to find the missing plane, a huge cost in loss of faith in that airline (lost sales) .
The bean counters will be motivated by $$$ .

1370192 2014-03-20 03:52:00 GPS sounds about right, it's technology can't fly below the radar beam.

Dual key lock for the transponder would be another solution one to be in hands of the head Air Hostess/Cabin Crew personnel.

1370193 2014-03-20 04:01:00 Just sighted stuff that could be from the plane in the Indian Ocean. Aircraft sent to check. Announcement made by Aus PM so quite serious.
