He is a space scientist at NASA (and other cool places), lol! But surely he can't be the first one to spot that error, can he? He doesn't have the official data, and that surely makes a huge difference, though, yeah.

ROFL! I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you, see... :D

All the pings, translated from UTC to Malaysian time: #1 -- 2014/03/07 16:30:00.000 = 00:30 (am next day) #2 -- 2014/03/07 16:43:00.000 = 00:43 am #3 -- 2014/03/07 16:55:00.000 = 00:55 am #4 -- 2014/03/07 17:07:00.000 = 01:07 am #5 -- 2014/03/07 18:25:00.000 = 02:25 am #6 -- 2014/03/07...

I'm still enthralled with this guy's work. Did we know that the pings weren't on the hour?! Check out this post of his: http://www.duncansteel.com/archives/397 Positions and Velocities of Inmarsat-3F1 During the Flight of MH370 Duncan Steel, 2014 March 26. This is the graphic given...

Ah, no! I'm reading the space scientist dude's (suggested by tout's journalist) essays on the Inmarsat data and all sorts of good stuff. He's a space scientist, so he knows his math, lol. I see a BIG problem with scientific inputs, and it may mean Inmarsat was wrong. He thinks so. His...

I can only speak about things that have been declassified or are obvious enough that it may as well be. Lots has been declassified, so that's why folks can hear this sort of thing at all. Most (not all) of the possibilities in the Northern possible flight path are much better monitored for...

I thought of that, too, and would like to believe it because it is less nefarious. But then I thought of how that government imprisoned a political opponent on a fake charge, and how they are basically totalitarian. I lived in Hungary just after the Soviets fell there, and it really is true that...

What did we say when Russia shot down that passenger plane? I don't remember that incident enough to recall, but that's apparently what we would say :D

This might be a good time for many of our nations to pat ourselves on the back about how our tax dollars pay for sophisticated equipment like so many of us are bringing in/using in this search :) So often we hear about the horrible things military spending ends up going for (war is horrible...

True! But if someone were looking to bring attention to a totalitarian government (posing as a democracy) instead of attention to the terrorist act itself, making a plane disappear would be a good way to go about that. Well, at least if everything is government-controlled like in Malaysia...

I wonder if he could have communicated during the normal part of the flight, though? I don't know if Malaysia gave any other investigative agency those communications. They still haven't given the cargo list to Australia (or others?), so I could leave open the possibility of that at this point...

I'm answering this without reading all the other responses knowing I may be embarrassed by a much better response in a few more pages from where I read, lol! :) If I understand it correctly, we have two different 'knowns' going on with the pings. There is the time 'known', through which the...

I found the actual coverage of Indonesia's radar in the area we do know about! This backs up what an Indonesian news article said about how they also monitor the area where Malaysian and Thai radar did see the flight. So, if the Indonesians did not see the flight on their radar at all that...

No, the pink is a small dot if you look closely :) The arcs of the pings are what I called green and red arcs, but the red one may be pink, lol. I had a migraine today, so pink may well be red to me tonight! The center of the smallest circle is where the satellite would be over earth.

Another plane shadowing it? I haven't heard that, but I'm probably glad, lol. It might be a great theory, but it starts getting so complicated :) The theory that it shadowed another flight seems to hold some weight in some pilot circles, but I keep thinking about those Chinese (and...

Following up on the 2:11 ping and INMARSAT new data, here is a nice graphic of the 2:11 ping! That didn't take as long as I'd imagined to find it :) So this graphic shows the militaries' radar-produced location in pink (possibly estimated a bit) and that does begin the set of hourly...

A few things here to add information: -- The plane clearly flew west while on military radar, so it's reasonable to believe the Inmarsat analysts meant when it was away from those sightings, when it was truly 'lost'. Or I'll have to reference that with the 2:11 ping to see if that's all they...

I have a hypothetical that involves the pilot, definitely. All of my hypotheticals on cases are purely brainstorming because obviously we don't know these people. I've posted back and forth with someone who was a suspect in one of my hypotheses, lol (a verified insider). It happens. I can say...

Hatfield, I was about to talk about satellite and radar again, lol! I'll give you a head's up so you can beat your head against something if that helps :) My biggest problem is not having time to read every post. The ones I keep seeing about old info don't cover new questions I had (and brought...

The ascending and descending came from military radar (and it is not very accurate about altitude). The north or south question is after the plane went off any known military radar, so there is much less info about the flight then. *** The Indonesian radar seems to be an important question...
