Does a reasonable job of running through the theories, discounting most. However still offers no real answers.

It remains one of the great mysteries of our time. To me is shows how big the world really is and the limitations of our technology to find things. I'd have never believed it would have been possible to so effectively disappear such as large plane full of people...

One thing that surprised me was how effectively they seem to discount the possibility the pilot was to blame. I had kind of believed that theory, before watching.

I watched it last night. Does make you stop and think. I do believe that things are hidden from public view for various reasons. How can a plane that size just vanish? I do think there was foul play and somehow it has been covered up. I do not think it was the pilot, it was done as some sort of political move and when the truth was revealed to the governments involved that this could destroy faith in any government that would do or agree with that type of action. The governments decided to make up various cock and bull stories to cover up any government involvement. I am not a highly educated person but anyone should see that there is something very wrong here. The question is why? Who benefited, what country, by this aircraft vanishing from the face of the earth. I would like to hear from others and what they think.
 
After reading all the evidence and reports by several news and government agencies, I have nothing to add that hasn’t already been reported or any additional suspicions of what may have happened. The one reporter contended that no one turned off the transponder, otherwise, everything else would have shut down. That may or may not be true. I have never flown the Triple Seven, so I am unsure how their avionics work together with the other systems, like the ACARS. On the planes that I flew, if I would have turned off the transponder, the ACARS would have remained alive and active.

I think this is a real clue because if the transponder was manually turned off, that would show intent and probably premeditation. The plane wasn’t in the air very long before the plane’s signal was lost. There were no good-bye texts and that could be another clue because there are no cell towers in the ocean that come to mind, so if someone turned off the Wi Fi in the cockpit, that would also show intent, unless a passenger had a satellite phone.

If the plane had broken up, we should expect to see at least a few parts that washed up on a barren island or floating on top of the water. This mystery may never be solved, unless some very obvious evidence appears, or someone comes up with a viable and proven explanation.

Do you see any credible explanation that does not involve intent and premeditation on the part of someone? Is some kind of a freak accident really possible?

Your opinions are of particular interest to me, you would know more about it than anyone I know.

If we ever do find out what happened it must have been an extraordinary event, but I suspect we may never know. A great thing for theorists...

Why hasn’t anyone mentioned anything about the “ping” from the black boxes? They are geared to send out a ping once they become submerged for about 30 days. Most any sub, naval cruiser or any other water vehicle, including some aircraft with sonar should be able to have located the ping sent out by the beacon in the black boxes. The Indian Ocean is quite deep from where the plane is suspected to have gone down, but even still, the ‘ping’ should have been picked up by sonar. Strange to say the least.

As a dedicated pilot, I hate to think or have to believe that this was another suicide by pilot, but as of now, it can’t be ruled out. I checked into a few items that bugged me earlier today. I called an old friend that works at the NTSB and even though he isn’t involved in this investigation. He did bring up the file on his computer and was able to tell me that the plane’s ACARS was manually turned off :26 minutes after departure. This would tend to make me believe this was indeed an intentional act. If I turned off the transponder and the ACARS, I would only do so because I wouldn’t want to be tracked.

It is also possible that the plane was flown to another location before plunging it into an ocean. It could have been flown much further out into the Indian Ocean or it could have been flown into the Arabian Sea, who knows? It does appear to be an intentional act. Someone that really knows how to work the avionics to keep well hidden. One thing still remains and that is the ping on the black boxes could not have been turned off by anyone. I thought way back, the ping was heard, but not located. No?
