    This is a strange case, an aeroplane vanishes into thin air with 239 people onboard.
    Relatives of some onboard claim their cell phones are still ringing, which adds to the mystery.

    Phones of MH370 passengers ringing, online accounts active, claim relatives
    Relatives of passengers aboard the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 claimed that they were able to call cell phones of their loves ones, according to media reports.
    The Washington Post said that the families of some of the 239 people onboard the missing Boeing 777 claimed to have heard the mobile ringtones.
    "In some cases, the relatives could see them active online through a local Chinese networking site called QQ," the Post reported.

    Then there are video's from Flightradar24.com that show the plane disappearing at 0 altitude off the coast of Malaysia.
    http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-26535248

    Then another coincidence.

    And then the plane re-appears and continues over Vietnam and being tailed.

    It is quite the mystery, hoping there is a credible explanation for whats happening on flightradar anyway

    Where's the conspiracy? Nothing seems unusual about this, we just don't know all the pieces of the puzzle as of know.

    It wouldn't help to jump to wild conclusions.

    I did hear there were 20 freescale semiconductor employees on board. No doubt they were more than just machine operators. Eggs and basket eh!

    Reminds me a bit of Operation Northwoods http://www.ratical.org/ratville/CAH/Northwoods.html
    a. An aircraft at Eglin AFB would be painted and
    numbered as an exact duplicate for a civil registered
    aircraft belonging to a CIA proprietary organization in the
    Miami area. At a designated time the duplicate would be
    subsituted for the actual civil aircraft and would be
    loaded with the selected passengers, all boarded under
    carefully prepared aliases. The actual registered
    aircraft would be converted to a drone.

    b. Take off times of the drone aircraft and the actual
    aircraft will be scheduled to allow a rendezvous south of
    Florida. From the rendezvous point the passenger-carrying
    aircraft will descend to minimum altitude and go directly
    into an auxiliary field at Eglin AFB where arrangements will
    have been made to evacuate the passengers and return the
    aircraft to its original status. The drone aircraft
    meanwhile will continue to fly the filed flight plan. When
    over Cuba the drone will being transmitting on the inter-
    national distress frequency a "MAY DAY" message stating he
    is under attack by Cuban MIG aircraft. The transmission
    will be interrupted by the destruction of aircraft which will
    be triggered by radio signal. This will allow IACO radio
    Appendix to
    Enclosure A

    stations in the Western Hemisphere to tell the US what has happened to the aircraft instead of the US trying to "sell" the incident.

    I would think the conspiracy angle can be formed from the changes in flight path and general anomalies on it.

    I agree though, in time I am sure that we will have a logical conclusion to this one, either that or Godzilla

    Ohh sorry........

    Well for starters the Malaysian govt seem to have been hiding something from the start, Vietnam (and other countries) were complaining that Malaysia weren't helping or co-ordinating with them in the initial search off the coast of Vietnam, now it seems they knew quiet well it wasn't off the coast of Vietnam at all:

    "Data showed that the plane went north of the Straits of Malacca and thus we extended search to the North, and later to Andaman Sea." Malaysian PM.

    Why did it take so long for this to come out officially?, it was leaked first, then denied, now admitted, so basically thousands upon thousands of square miles have been searched needlessly while Malaysia weren't co-operating.

    If the plane did turn off the coast of Malaysia and turn back and fly over Malaysia where did the Flightradar24.com data come from showing MAS370 flying over the Vietnam coast?

    Yea that was something I was thinking about, seemingly Freescale Semiconductors amongst other things make a number of sensors and components for drones......

    Loss of employees on Malaysia flight a blow, U.S. chipmaker says:
    "These were people with a lot of experience and technical background and they were very important people," Haws said. "It's definitely a loss for the company."

    Now that the facts and logic have run out they're probably back here looking for another answer, a few of the main stream media outlets have gone with the old "plane getting turned into a nuclear bomb" story.:eek:

    Reminds me a bit of Operation Northwoods http://www.ratical.org/ratville/CAH/Northwoods.html

    A few days ago I wouldn't have thought much about that, but now it appears the plane was hijacked, still pinging over 7 hrs after going missing, 2 Iranian's with stolen passports onboard, 20 very important people with "a lot of experience and technical background" onboard who would probably come in handy for Iran, which is reverse engineering a captured US drone.
    The "ARC" being mentioned a lot today, Iran is neatly within the arc.
    2 Muslim pilots...
    The pentagon creative writing department must be having a field day.


    I really don't have a theory about what happened the plane or the people, but I don't believe with todays technology that airliner can hide for over 7 hours after losing contact, almost 13 years after 9/11 and all the fuss over turning off transponders back then and how all that would change etc.
    A Boeing 777 flying at 25,000 feet for seven hours crossing airways used by airplanes flying from Europe to Asia and vice versa and several airspaces surveilled by military and civilian radars, would leave a trace (and risk a mid-air or two on the way…)
    The fact that it flew with a switched off transponder didn’t make it invisible: Air Traffic Control radars might have not noticed it (even if it is unlikely), but military air defense sites in most countries (Malaysia is probably not among them) do pay attention to primary returns that could be the sign of an unknown (or enemy) aircraft.
    Provided the plane really went northwest, how did it pass unnoticed through the Indian or Pakistani airspace?
    http://theaviationist.com/2014/03/15/mh370-shadowed-other-planes/

    I think it's a handy mystery that can be solved in any number of ways that suit an agenda or psy-op.....

    Surely the idea of a dirty bomb has been spoiled by loosing the element of surprise..
    I'd be thinking concerned governments will be closly monitoring all air traffic now.

    Would the plane be worth enough as spares to be worth killing off the passengers for ??

    I think the authorities are covering something up I dont know what it is but something apart from the obvious is afoot with this missing plane. Sources are being quoted left right and center without being traceable making it nigh on impossible to verify anything. As if people brains arent melted enough "sources" in Russian intelligence seem to think the US disappeared the plane their story goes like this..

    Russian intelligence had flight mh 370 under surveillance after it received a mysterious cargo that they traced to a US registered ship in the Indian ocean the MV Maersk Alabama. 24 hrs after the cargo had been off loaded from the ship onto the plane 2 navy seals who had been assigned to protect it turned up dead cause of death apparent heroin overdoses...

    Heard on the radio earlier that islanders in the maldives saw a low flying jet with the same colors as the jet in question. This would support the most bizarre theory, unfortunately, that the jet was cyberjacked by the US military and flown to the Diego Garcia navy base.

    This may be why the phones of the victims still rang, why the plane disappeared from both civilian and military radar. Would also explain the confusion from malaysian authorities, who mite know the US is responsible but are too afraid to say.

    Altho, some of the controls would have had to been shut down manually by pilot/co-pilot. Low and behold, Diego Garcia airstrip was on the flight simulator retrieved from the pilots house.

    Why do this? 20 chinese military specialists on board, or some sort of special cargo which another report claims was on the plane.

    Sorry if i repeated anything already said.

    What did it matter if Diego Garcia airstrip was on the Pilots simulator if the plane was cyberjacked as you put it?

    And would places like Diego Garcia not be watched like a hawk with Russian and Chinese military satellites?

    What I dont get is the yanks can see when Kim Yong Un fires a few old mortar shells etc into the sea yet their satellites are not tracking airliners.

    I read the other day somewhere that they said they dont have the time and resources to look back over records as they have to keep up with their day to day homeland security.

    I don't believe the debris shown in the new satellite image is from MH370, I just can't see 24 meters of plane floating on the 16th, 8 days after it vanished.

    The Diego Garcia theory is "interesting", especially seeing as there were no flights for 3 days during the time that MH370 went missing, the fact that Malaysian military tried hard to deny that MH370 actually flew back over Malaysia and reportedly directly over known military bases, after it "vanished" military radar could still see it turning and coming back over Malaysia, no jets were scrambled to see what was going on or if they were going to dive bomb Malaysia. Is this just another military fcuk-up?

    Surely when MH370 vanished off air traffic control the military would have been notified straight away, then the military admit days later they actually did see MH370 travelling back over Malaysia, yet they didn't bother looking for the plane for 12 hours after it vanished, and when they did start looking they looked over 1000km east off the Vietnamese coast which was the opposite direction to where they had last seen it flying (west).

    Then when it did vanish off Malaysia, who put it back up on flightradar24.com and made it appear that the plane continued on over Vietnam and vanished a second time?

    I haven't read any news articles that questioned how the flight re-appeared on flightradar24.com and continued over Vietnam.

    It seems somebody wanted everybody looking the wrong way.

    I read reports of the US navy Diego Garcia deleting posts from their facebook page on the 8th March, and there is no posts from 8th March, then on the 13th they decided to repost the above notice from the 7th?

    https://www.facebook.com/pages/Diego-Garcia-Passenger-Terminal/242934902443795

    https://www.facebook.com/NSFDG

    Maybe I'm just as confused as the rest but Diego Garcia was in the direction that the plane was last seen flying, the Strait of Malacca , and Malaysia tried to keep that information out of the public eye for as long as possible and eye witnesses in the Maldives claiming to have seen the flight, flying low.
    According to the report, several locals saw a plane at 6.15am local time on March 8.
    "I've never seen a jet flying so low over our island before. We've seen seaplanes, but I'm sure that this was not one of those. I could even make out the doors on the plane clearly," a resident said.
    "It's not just me either, several other residents have reported seeing the exact same thing. Some people got out of their houses to see what was causing the tremendous noise too."

    Maldives Residents Saw Missing Plane MH370: People Describe Seeing ‘Low-Flying Jumbo Jet’ Over Houses on 8 March Morning
    Maldivian daily Haaveeru has reported residents describing the aircraft, which flew over their houses at around 6:15am (local time), as white in colour, with red stripes across it. This color scheme is typically the livery used in Malaysian Airlines flights, least to mention, the one that went missing.

    Here's another conflicting story from last week.
    Four passengers not onboard MH370 replaced by standby passengers
    The mystery behind the four passengers who checked in but did not board the Malaysia Airlines (MAS) flight MH 370 was finally “cleared” after it was revealed that four standby passengers had taken their seats.

    Following a barrage of questions on the matter, MAS group chief executive officer Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said of the 227 passengers, four who had bought tickets did not turn up to catch the flight to Beijing at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA).
    Their places were taken by four people, who were standby passengers, he explained.
    He, however did not reveal more about the four passengers.

    Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar told reporters that every person who had booked a ticket for the flight had boarded the plane.
    He maintained that that is what the police found in their investigations.
    "Let me make it simple, everyone who was supposed to be onboard, was on the flight," Khalid was quoted as saying yesterday.

    Khalid's statement caused confusion as the Department of Civil Aviation (DCA) had earlier claimed that four passengers did not get on the plane.
    DCA director-general Datuk Azharuddin Abdul Rahman told reporters that the five had failed to board and their bags were all removed from the plane, as per the SOP, before take-off.
    He said only one woman did not get onboard as she had call MAS to cancel her booking.
    Flight MH370 flew from KLIA with 227 passengers of 14 nationalities and an all-Malaysian crew of 12 onboard. It never reached its destination, Beijing.
    http://news.malaysia.msn.com/tmi/four-passengers-not-onboard-mh370-replaced-by-standby-passengers

    What's conflicting about the above story is firstly is the obvious, Malaysian Airlines chief executive officer Ahmad Jauhari Yahya and Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar contradicting each other about whether 4 people did or didn't get on the flight.

    Then the response Ahmad gave that 4 standby passengers took their seats, this is strange to have 4 standby passengers when there were still empty seats.

    It is the world's largest twinjet and has a typical seating capacity for 314 to 451 passengers.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_777

    There were 239 people total onboard.

    Very strange, does not make sense at this day and age for a commercial passenger aircraft of its size to disappear practically into thin air, is this what the powers that be expect us to believe. Some cover up job taking place I would think. Much more to this than meets the eye.
