Malaysia airlines plane may have crashed 239 people on board #7

[fruity]

This is a good link, it looks at different possibilities.

It notes that if this was a terror attack it likely took years and years of planning and was possibly more in depth than the 9/11 attack.

It boggles the mind that the passenger area can be depressurized by a pilot, and that a pilot can disable the black box, if true.

It's not mind-boggling. There are legitimate reasons that the person in control of the plane needs to do so that happen much more frequently than pilot suicides. Plus, a black box is only helpful after-the-fact and wouldn't prevent a crash.

Does anyone think the two men who bought stolen passports from a Mr Ali in Thailand and were on this plane, had anything to do with its disappearance? They had one way tickets.

I saw this on a repeat of a television announcement today.

It is very likely that they were illegal immigrants. IIRC both had connecting tickets from Beijing to Europe (both stolen passports were European).

Mods, please fix the blown lines on board #7. They are
so hard to read. Thank you. Nore.:loveyou:

Geraldo is talking about this on Fox at 10, an hour from now.


I think he is broadcasting from a ship. :floorlaugh:

wonder if a rogue wave will appear..:blushing:

I've been reading a lot about plane crashes, and geez:

This is a list of aviation-related events from 1985. It remains the worst year in history for aviation disasters: among the crashes were Japan Airlines Flight 123, killing 520 people; Air India Flight 182, killing 329; Arrow Air Flight 1285, killing 256; Aeroflot Flight 7425, killing 200; Iberia Airlines Flight 610, killing 148; Delta Air Lines Flight 191, killing 137; Galaxy Airlines Flight 203, killing 70; and British Airtours Flight 28M, killing 55. A collision between Aeroflot Flight SSSR-65856 and a Soviet Air Forces transport plane kills 94, a hijacking of Egyptair Flight 648 results in 60 fatalities, and various crashes and other incidents kill fewer than 50 people each. August 1985 remains the worst single month for commercial aviation fatalities in history.

It boggles the mind that the passenger area can be depressurized by a pilot, and that a pilot can disable the black box, if true. I'm not following this very well due to cleaning my house but figure pilot possibly mentally ill and killed himself along with everyone else, or he/they really are making some political statement and holding hostages. I don't think the hostage situation with that many passengers is very likely though.

I don't believe the pilot can disable the black box (you mean the thing they gather that has all the data about the plane when they find a downed airplane?). That box is located in the rear of the airplane and separate from the other communication systems we've been discussing.

May be he is not anouncing it to the world only to the Malysian government, maybe the US and China is on it it too and just have to play along hoping for the best JMO.

:moo:

Doh! Yes, of course you are right. They would not be discussing it with us now, would they?

I hope this is the case lease: they could still be alive!

No, I personally don't, but at this point nothing is impossible anymore.

If the family left the home after the plane's disappearance, I don't find it odd at all. I can't imagine not knowing where my husband is, what happened to the flight, and having media outside my door. Also, not knowing, they may be in fear of their own lives in the event this plane was hijacked by terrorists.

MOO

she left the day before was the info I saw.

Can someone good with these lat/lon searches tell me where this is real quick?-

{"id":654936,"overlay_id":1275,"lat":11.577303,"lon":92.68575,"status":1,"msg":"Retrieved map ID = 654936"}

Someone has posted this on Tomnod FB saying it is in South America.
It is a plane in on land in the tile, but why would the tile be South American (no reason for that to be included in the search area) ?
And why is no one tripping out about it on the site?
Is it possible for someone to do photoshopping on Tomnods actual images? (not copy it and paste the pic, this image is in their actual sattelite image data).

SCRATCH THAT!
He said South ANDAMAN.
"there is a plane in the woods http://www.tomnod.com/.../malaysiaairsar2014/map/654342 below it is a dam. the co-ordinates show it to be in South Andaman Island near Port Blair."

Both of the pilots' homes were searched and items have been removed. Today authorities were seen carrying shopping bags containing items out of the co-pilot's home.
Someone said guards had been assigned earlier to make sure nothing was being carried out prior to determining if there was a need to investigate the pilots.

I wonder if the intensified focus on the pilots, indicates authorities have outruled the two men with the fake passports or if they're still investigating several angles simultaneously. My guess is the latter.

:seeya: Do you have a link?

Oh noooo :floorlaugh: stop, Geraldo! I hope it's his own yacht tied up to his dock.

 

[Nore]

For some reason, I can't recall why Geraldo with ships is funny. But I know there's a reason! When I read your post, I thought that Geraldo likes his boats! Why?

Geraldo and Baez??LOL.

Snipped. Yes, those coordinates are on the southern part of South Andaman. However, it is too small to be a 777 and there are certainly still other planes flying in the area...

This woman on CNN is actually talking about passenger cell phones...has she not watched CNN any this week and heard the discussions about no cellphones being workable on this plane?????:facepalm:

 

[Snoods]

Great! As soon as I tune into CNN for the first time, everyone turns it off. :bang:

I'm still watching CNN! But now that I know Geraldo is broadcasting live from a ship.....

I don't think so. I believe they were Iranian's travelling to Europe for better opportunities. They had stolen passports because it is so hard to travel with an Iranian passport and EU passports are much easier. A lot of middle eastern asylum seekers travel through south east Asia. It seems like these men were taking a route well known to people smugglers.

could you post the link the one below the photo is not working
I want co ordinates..the ones listed are not helping me..

could someone have photoshopped that plane into that image? it looks to good and clear

I just went on to the Tomnod facebook..wow..some to one of the images posted..that was taken on March 14...I am going to follow that one for a bit..

:tyou:
I just saw a plane in the jungle and by jaw dropped.
You are right, the scale seems too small for it to be MH370.
