MAS370 - Malaysia Airlines Flight 370

There has a been a report what shown in the satellite images from the Chinese are not that of the flight and that the Chinese has apologized that the images was released by mistake. There has been a report of an oil rig worker that have reported that they have seen something that resembles the an aircraft on flame. However, that was debunked by the Malaysian authority. Currently, the search area is about the size of the state of Indiana and that the spread is about the distance from Chicago to Atlanta. A theory of the aircraft flying for about 4 more hours after last contact has also be debunked by the Malaysian authority. Also every possible lead that have popped out are being shot down as they appear. Still awaiting more news on this incident.

My opinions: I know that the Chinese authority release the satellite images by mistake, but the majority of the passengers of the flight is of Chinese nationality, given that, the Chinese authority would be on high alert on this flight in that this flight was originally destined for Beijing International Airport. Given that the Chinese authority was expecting a flight to enter their airspace in about 4 hours after the departure of the flight from Kuala Lumpur. Since this incident, the flight number of the same route has changed to 318 until this incident have been solved. I don't know why the Malaysian authority have been so slow at the investigation. From what I have read, it is mostly other nations that is doing the search and that there is little or no effort from the Malaysian side. From what I have read recently, Malaysian have not been cooperating with the other nations that have been involved in the search of the aircraft and that this will cause the search to be slowed and that whatever the chance of find survivors and or the aircraft near the original flight path is growing slimmer in that with every passing hour, the ocean current will push the debris further from the crash site, that is if the aircraft crashed at all. I am just really sadden such a big aircraft can go missing out of no where and that the Malaysian is not even worried at the beginning of this incident. Heck, AFR447 had about the same situation and when the aircraft did not reach France, the search begin almost immediately. I am just disappointed at how the Malaysian authorities reacts to this incident.... Heck! Even the Japanese are helping in this search, but none of their nationals are on the flight. I mean, c'mon, a nation that had no national on the flight is pitching in and Malaysian is like it is laid back or something. I have not seen any sign of worry from the Malaysian side of the incident. The most worried of the nations that are involved is China/Taiwan/Hong Kong, Thailand, Vietnam and the United States. <--- That is what I can tell. Vietnam is only suspending their part of the search is because the information that they have been getting from the Malaysian is very unclear and that they will only continue the search after they get information from the Malaysian that are clear. In all, I really wish that they can find the aircraft soon. I have become an insomniac because of this.....

Situation update:

The aircraft might be at Indian Ocean according the ABC. The news source said that the aircraft pinged a satellite that what made to receive informations from the aircraft whether or not the airline company is paying for the service or not. I will add more to this post when I am to compose this more professionally as I am quite drowsy as of now...

Alright guys, this is what I got from the news resources that I have read, the communication devices on the aircraft was turned off seperately. The first one was the ACARS was turned off on the aircraft. ACARS, short for Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System, is like a phone for the aircraft in that it allows the pilot to text to the control center of their company and receive updates from the centers. This was turned off at 0107 local time and that it was followed by the turing off of the transponder at 0121 the aircraft transponder was shut down manually. Even though these two components are necessary for the tracking of the aircraft in an everyday routine kind of way, but there is one device that cannot be turned off manually on the aircraft and that device have been pinging data to a satellite hourly. With that, the searcher is now suspecting that foul play is involved in that if there were to be a crash of any sorts, the transponder and the ACARS would be off at the same time. This is raising concern for a hijack or a pilot that have gone rouge.

Like what I said above, I will keep this post updated.

hmm thanks Price, this is getting more interesting

[ssubtrohs ///_-]

foul play, but im going to have to go against it being a terror attack. if it was a terror attack, a terror organization would have taken credit already or it would contradict the definition of terrorism/the organization would prob be noobs, for a lack of a better term.... IMO must have been something other than terrorists, unless the terrorist organization again, were fucking noobs.

Terrorists won't take credit for stealing the plane short. They'll take credit after they ram it into the skyscraper. Cell phones could have been taken by the gunmen that can explain no calls from the passengers

There are plenty of old unused bases with at least one landing lane in the world that can give shelter to the plane for a time being. I have a really bad feeling about this until they prove it was a crash

In this day in age... Cell Phone Jammers... Radar blockers.... False signals from certain devices... There is too many thing they can do to fool the "security measures" we keep relying on.

the news just said that the communications were intentionally shut off by someone on board.... that sure as fuck don't sound good.

My opinion: Someone just needed a transport plane for their illegal shipment that's all and it just so happen to be flight ms370. Malaysia is full of shit. Why would they shut down all ideas of possibility's and not care to really search for it themselves? oh maybe because the Malaysian government is in on it and they know what really happen!!!

May I say something? I just love how some of us here can actually provide questions to the investigating party, but those who are in the investigation cannot think of them. This just makes me laugh so hard, but then again, they have governments up their ass and that if they were to deviate from their "objective" they might be punished or something. Oh well, because of those news that I have been getting, I am hoping for a hijack over any other possibilities. Oh by the way, I have seen an article on the Chinese version of Twitter saying that some nations might take Malaysia to international court because of this incident and that they want Malaysia to up to this incident. Also, I think I can get why those nations wanted this, the slowness of the Malaysian government when this incident happened and that they way that they have been sending informations that are unclear. I really hope that some form of crowdsourcing can help out this investigation.

I myself, is really disappointed at how the Malaysian government and their military reacted to this incident, I mean if you are sure that you saw something why don't you say it? Also given this long time, you will be lucky if you find a body or something of that nature.... Oh, you know what enrages me? A post on the Chinese sector of the Internet world saying that the pilots is at fault of this incident just because one of them has a copy of Microsoft Flight Simulator running on their computer at home. I just hate the ignorance of some people in this world in that I can be counted as a "terrorist" just because I happened to be to have a copy of Microsoft Flight Simulator on my computer as well. What has this world come to? I mean the captain must have a dream of becoming a pilot when he was a kid and that when he is not flying for his company, he want to have so sort of "high" from flying, so he got a copy of Microsoft Flight Simulator installed on his computer so that he can fly when he wants to. What I want to say to the person who wrote that: "If you can't walk the walk, then don't even try to talk the talk!!" After which I will bitch slap that person. Oh and you know what happened? The article got so many negative response from the pilots (Chinese pilots to be exact) in that this means that they can be a suspect in any flight that they are on. I, an aviation enthusiast, is really enraged in that if you are making that kind of judgement just by one thing, then how do you feel if others judge you by your covers? Ugh... I'm out of words to rage at the person who wrote that article. Bringing CS 1.6/Source/GO into perspective, if any of us were to be at a crime scene that have knowledge of the firearm that was used in the that crime scene, then does this make us the bad guys in that we play a game that simulations guns and violence? Hells no!! If this world were to be based on assumptions alone, then everyone of us who were born after or during the Cold War would not be here. Wanna know why? That is because the Soviet Union and the United States would have nuked the earth enough that our grandparents cannot even reproduce us. Also I view this as a disrespect towards the pilots and their families in that just like the friends and families of those who were on the flight, they have currently lost their loved ones. If you are going to treat others like that, then don't cry if your family gets treated like that after you got missing.

Oh lord, this is the longest rant I have done on here. If you guys did not read that second paragraph, I personally hope you did not as I have tons of rants in there that can get you enraged as well. Anywho, like what I said in the previous posts, I will keep this post updated as I get new information and I will try to answer questions that you guy have to the best of my knowledge.
