malaysian mystery

[Danzig]

no sign as yet of the missing plane. they've said that the two guys with stolen passports (how do names on stolen passports not get a giant fred flag in the system?) who boarded the plane had purchased one way tickets. of course that doesn't mean they were the cause of the disappearance, but it certainly makes you say 'hmmm'.
unreal that they have seen nothing so far of that jet.

GPS May Be No Help in Finding Missing Malaysia Airlines Jet

No one yet knows what happened to Malaysia Airlines flight 370. Hamilton said it’s possible the pilot or someone else turned off the transponder, or that the plane was destroyed in a sudden, violent event that also knocked out the tracking system.

There are also secondary radar systems, but Hamilton said those have some dead zones, particularly over large bodies of water.

William McCabe, president of the aviation safety consultancy The McCabe Group, said it’s very rare in the modern era for air traffic controllers and others not to know exactly where an aircraft is at all times, because of the overlapping technologies and procedures designed to make flying safe.

It seems that the news about the missing airliner is in a constant state of flux. Here are the thoughts of one pilot/author about a possible scenario

also a flight forum to read other pilots thoughts about it all is pretty interesting.

Been the lead story every nite on eve news...Latest seems to zero in on the pilot or co-pilot as the culprit on suicide mission..Hope the searchers find something to help solve the mystery..

Sounds plausible to me but not as entertaining read as OldDogs.
