MAS Flight Number MH 370

[nickso]

Concord/e has one serious accident then the fleet is grounded, while Boeings fall out of the sky at regular intervals, yet they remain in service?

The decision to ground Concorde was influenced by the costs of maintaining the service for a very small number of customers who could afford to travel by Concorde. It was not a profitable service.

....and to redesign the fuel tanks on the wings to prevent another similar accident would prove even less cost effective.

Could the skipper have been training someone using his very sophisticated home 777 simulator (see below)? Under duress or not, to take over from the guy who has/had an alleged history of entertaining in the cockpit...

It is not yet official, they are saying COULD have etcetera, although everything is pointing that way as a search would by now have heard the signal sent out by the black box if it went down anywhere near the search area. This will transmit for 30 days following disconnection from the aircraft's power supply.

Perhaps they should be searching some Middle Eastern countries!

That's why there is a question mark there.

and what chance have we of finding UFo's if we can't find one of our own planes!

Perhaps, evidence found... But then 3rd world with instant 'hollowed out' society - If it doesn't fit on an iPad screen, it is not viable. (Anchors the lot of 'em)

Sorry - I have no idea what you are talking about! care to elaborate?

I have a good theory, the plane must have been hijacked by retired Somalian sea piartes, now taken to air pirecy and they should be looking for it in Somalia, remember the last beacon indicated that the plane was heading West across Indian Ocean, so they should be now looking at Somalian soil and some air field where they have landed.

It's starting to sound like the plot of a James Bond film.
They should be looking for a bald man with a scar across one eye and a fluffy white cat.

Admittedly I know little about aircraft but it was a Boeing 777 ? Can you turn all the comms off? If so how would you land it?? Lot of things don't seem to add up here.

Assuming that the plane did not crash, can the US not find it from satellite images. After all, Google and Bing maps can see my house from satellite images.

Good point. And it's not as if they can land a plane of that size on some obscure private airstrip.
