Flight MH370: Where the FUCK is that plane?

[BecomingJulie]

It really would all be much simpler if they just did everything in SI, wouldn't it?

Even electromagmetics is bearable once you do everything in Webers and Teslas. Sure you get some tiny-looking cross-sections when you put the area in square metres, but that's what exponential notation is for.

Latest theory by a geezer who'se been investigating it is chummy turned off the air, locked co-pilot outside, went up to 45,000 for 20 minutes till everyone was dead, then using his own air, or extra air he'd smuggled onboard, let autopilot take it out, till he was almost out of fuel then landed it in one peice in the sea so no wreckage. Says the geezer was thorough and would've been thinking "Find this fucker".

According to a statistics professor and mathematician I've met while back in uni in May, who works as a consultant for both military and civilian aviation, has dual Italian-Israeli citizenship and worked for two decades for the military aviation department of the IAF, there is no way a plane can disappear like that, with the amount of tracking and satellite technology currently available.

When I asked him what he believed he just smiled and refused to give me an answer, but it was obvious he thought that plane was flown somewhere to be used for something.

It was funny the whole class just begged him to give us a precise explanation but he refused, his silence was telling. He then went on to explain how even a small Cessna aircraft can be easily tracked by the authorities even if it disappears at sea. For him it was no accident.

I really wonder what it could have been used for, and by whom

... was it not used to implicate the Kremlin in a Malaysian Airlines shoot-down in Ukraine..?

There's plenty of people pointing out that although the planes in question were the same model, they were not identical but I am still stunned by the coincidence, if that's what it was. Seems pretty remarkable that the same airline should suffer such a succession of catastrophies, but I can't deny that it may well be just that. A coincidence.

Maybe one day some evidence of MH371's true whereabouts will come to light. Until then, we're all guessing, really.

Some of us are clearly capable of more interesting guesses than others...
