On a side note - I'm waiting for the conspiracy theories to emerge that this was the planned "disposal" of the 777-200 airframe (MRO) that was previously flown as MH370 *rolls eyes*:drumroll:

Apologies for my failure to read the thread as it has developed - I may be raising things that have already been said... My first impressions: I think there is more to this than is being reported - There are many procedures and basic operating expectations/requirements that have either been...

Sorry, just saw this... No idea on the facts and regs of this sorry... I think the US still employ "Air Marshall" services, but I have a feeling they've been wound back a bit... I think Australia trialed it for a bit there, but again, I have a feeling it was scaled back to almost nil... I...

Typed in "Post Reply" box.... not ideal I know exactly what your saying hahahaha! There are numerous disjoints in the sentence structure in that post I have noticed since reading over it fully posted in final form... that I somehow missed in the read overs prior to pressing "post"... its almost...

Every year, I am required to undergo a "Class 1 Aviation Medical" It is pretty intensive in what it covers... * full spectrum hearing test * full eyesight testing with a visit to a qualified eye specialist who looks into your eyes with some machine (obviously retina checks etc) * full heart...

I've had some lengthy conversations with a friend of mine on this subject - Who works for a well known social assistance and counselling group here in Australia, Lifeline. Like many of you I assume, I have had a number of personal brushes in life with suicide - friends, friends of friends...

That's the only detail I haven't got (or don't want to think about) - a good answer for... I personally highly highly doubt that the co-pilot was in on this... I'll detail why if anyone cares... but I can't think of any really "nice" way in which he was "disabled" from stopping the actions of...

The plane was turned around at the BEST POSSIBLE time to begin the execution of this plan as I've reasoned for above. It got clear of Malaysian controllers and right in that very limited moment between sign off from Malaysian control to sign on with HCM (viet) control, they went AWOL. Its...

I have been thinking about this over the last week or so while not on WebSleuths - and obviously watching as things have "progressed" thus far, if you can call it "progressing"... I have reached a sad but inescapable conclusion - Its Pilot Suicide. For any of you who dissagree, I would...

Which case are you referring to exactly??? There was a rudder control issue with the early -200/500 series 737's I seem to recall, it was essentially a case of at the worst possible time (Eg into an attempt to apply opposite rudder in a fairly well developed stall, the hard correction of the...

Some aircraft, including the A380 and 777 for instance, will have a number of "Jump Seats"... so the 737NG series and most other "Single Isle" commercial passenger aircraft (A300/10/20 series Airbus and of course the Boeing 737NG series as already mentioned) will have a SINGLE (1) "Jump Seat"...

Pilot In Command (So, The pilot who is considered "in charge" of the flight legally should an incident occur), the Most qualified pilot in charge of the flight for commercial operations, who is for all intents here referred to as "Captain", or in a private flight the Licenced pilot (with his/her...

Well... its been an err... interesting/uneventful few weeks, depending how you look at it... I'm still going with "Pilot Suicide" or "Tin Foil Hat Plot & Scheme" (same as I have from day 1!) - Here's one of the last pics I took from on the flightdeck of a Malaysia Airlines flight I was flying...

I doubt it matters if they float or not... if they were never on board to start with who's going to know the wiser now?

I'm sure this has been suggested before, but is there any possibility that this 3 tonnes of mangostieens or whatever they are called might in fact be a cover for something else? No one would raise an eyebrow if the search didn't find one single mangosteen floating around down there - so its...

Or maybe smoke markers just make for more visually exciting footage...

Yep - Who's to say they weren't just sending a bunch of laptop batteries to a customer in China? Its very common for electronics producers to have items supplied and made in other countries, then shipped to their factory, rebadged with their logo/brand and assembled into the final item -...

Every single day, every single flight carries on board hundreds of Lithium batteries. Mobiles phones Laptops Ipads Every passenger usually has at least one of these... or all of them. Why are you all so suspect on the lithium batteries?
