Malaysia airlines plane may have crashed 239 people on board #3

Still waiting. I believe the script is still being revised.

 

[tambo]

okay, looks like they are starting

 

[madamehdivision]

English dude. English.

 

[madamehdivision]

They have absolutely NO clue.

Ineptitude or cover up?

 

[madamehdivision]

0215 local time LAST KNOWN CONTACT

 

[madamehdivision]

Search has now expanded to include Malacca and South China Sea

They have absolutely NO clue.

Ineptitude or cover up?

"I invoke my right under the Fifth Amendment not to answer, on the grounds I may incriminate myself."

It's like watching the Three Stooges, imo.

 

[madamehdivision]

It's very difficult to hear the questions from the floor.

Officials deny they have provided "confused information". "The situation is only confused if you want it to be. We have been consistent."

"All our aircrafts are airworthy but I have to check on this specific plane" (wtf?)

"We have been very transparent"

 

[momrids6]

the ATC lost radar contact at 1.31am, but military got _something_ at 02:15, 200miles northwest of Penang, and they have no clue what it was

 

[madamehdivision]

"All passengers checked in. All luggage was on board"

 

[madamehdivision]

"Focus is on locating aircraft. Will use data provided by the military in order to do so"

Cant be sure whether plane is in Malacca or not. Thats why teams deployed to Malacca and South China Sea.

 

[madamehdivision]

Much of this is very repetitive.

"We have nothing to hide"

"Transparency"

Yadda yadda

"Did not track plane in real time." Only going from radar data.

 

[madamehdivision]

Backpedal.

Backpedal.

"Transparency for the families"

Yadda

Yadda

 

[madamehdivision]

"Plane can fly under radar until it runs out of fuel"

Well. Knock me over with a feather.

 

[madamehdivision]

Chopping and changing between English and foreign languages is not helping. No translation being provided.

 

[madamehdivision]

So, the consensus is that answers to questions cant be answered until the aircraft and/or black box is located.

 

[madamehdivision]

And thats a wrap.
