This mystery and the Barry & Honey Sherman mystery are two subjects I look for new information on a regular just about a daily basis. I have recently started posting on the B&H forum and it is really all questions.
about the same here mostly questions.
After 7 years and so much shared information, as well as the same amount of details suppressed, this case makes it very difficult to not be pulled into a conspiracy theory or two.
A little background so my post may make sense?
I really try to keep an open mind and live my life with a commonsense and logical attitude. First, try to put me in another person(s) situation, and think about what they must be emotionally going through at that time (to be able to carry out a murderous plan and or deal with a non-practiced catastrophic situation).
I am what you would consider an airline brat. My father was a 747 simulator specialist for 32 years with Air Canada. My Uncle was a pilot, my uncle's brother worked with my Dad and as a young adult, I was a flight attendant. We were also all part of the Air Cadets. My Nephew and cousin both have private pilot licenses so we are true love and understanding of flight extended family.
My Dad had previous experience with L1011 and 727 models, but he was the specialist for the 747, knew the aircraft and its capabilities better than Boeing. A simulator specialist will become an expert on the minimum and maximum capabilities of a specific model aircraft in flight and on the ground. They are computer programmers that must write computer programs to make the simulator fly, act, react exactly like a real aircraft.
In some cases, they also take flight data recorder information from flight incidents and recreate the situation to teach pilots how to manage this situation. I remember when he was writing the wind shear program after a crash in Dallas and he wrote the taxiing program for the new Toronto Terminal too. So basically anything a pilot needs to do and be trained on a Simulator specialist needs to program it.
My weekends going to work with Dad would be to fly to California and back and test out some of the programs he was creating. Really cool.
To be clear I am not setting up any conspiracy suggestions here, these are just odd reports, some that happened in the early days and details being shared that still have not resulted in any follow-up details or clarifications. This can mean that they are just "things that happened" and must be considered a coincidence or misleading, misdiagnosed or misevaluated information.
1. 20 computer programmers who specialize in radar evasion working for a US company named Freescale are on board, traveling to a conference.
This initially was one of the biggest coincidences, to have 20 people with an understanding or knowledge on how to make a plane invisible to radar go missing and avoid 8 or 10 countries radars. And no I do not believe that a commercial airliner was sacrificed in military practice, just stating what was reported as facts.
2. Many airborne and on the waters the US & other countries joined military training events were happening all night long in two of the regions the plane potentially disappeared from.
yet no military or formal reports of seeing MH370 or any commercial carrier during the practice.
3. Only 1 cell phone attempted to connect to a cell tower. 238 people turned their phone off completely? I have never been on a flight where everyone actually did turn off their cellular device. Why only the copilots phone tried to connect to the tower? Would radar interference create any cellular transmission interference too? like cell phone signal jammers?
4. Why not send any military planes to look for the missing plane? Air Traffic control asked other pilots to phone MH370 and look out the window to see if they can see it. They could not make contact and hours went by before any planes were asked to look for debris, no planes were sent to look for an awol aircraft.
5. The MH370 pilot's home PC simulator data was sent to the FBI to review very early in the investigation. The initial report was nothing untoward was found, it was sent for deeper analysis only the US has expertise in and they found deleted flights paths. Surprising that the US / Microsoft would be the only ones with the expertise to find deleted files?
6. Boeing collects data on engine health while planes are in flight. Regardless if MH paid for the service the data is most likely still uploaded to Boeing databases. (The engines are supplied by a 3rd party/supplier like Pratt & Whitney. ) If engine data for 8 hours of flying does exist, none has leaked to the public and it must not be of any use to decide where it is. but it seriously would be useful information.
Thanks for reading "listening" to my list of questions, I cannot shake these or find logical answers to stop me from rethinking them.
Keep Healthy Everyone,
