    I'm thinking a totally respectful and docile passenger was sitting peacefully in his window seat innocently listening to his iPhone music and some crazed PMS stewardess ripped his earphones out of his ears, threw them on the ground and tried to jerk him off the plane, causing a crash.

    Pretty sure the airline is going to apologize soon and totally accept responsibility for the fracas.

    Now if you just want to dump the plane..then you dump the plane in plain site no? The visual no? This plane landed somewhere? That is probably the case? Incredible in this day and age that this is even possible..undetected. They are searching for landing sites that had at least 7500 feet to land this monster. Unless they dumped it.

    The list goes on and on..they could take this land it..load it with explosives..ok...Im paranoid but you get the point..how the hell does a plane go missing?

    And still....it's all speculation. No government of any country knows shit. It's a guessing game at this point. Moving on...

    Not sure CK...but this is really turning out to be a nutty story to say the least.

    Unless the pilot did all of this and then dumped the plane in the sea in a suicide mission, something else much bigger has to be in store I would think? Using the plane for something else wherever it is? The thinking of taking the plane to over 46000 feet and the cockpit having the ability to shutdown the oxegon so that within 15 seconds, all the passengers are dead so not to repeat 9/11 Pennsylvania with passengers storming the cockpit was a tale I heard that makes sense..but is farfetched also.

    Not to be able to locate a plane after more then a decade since planes were taken over and rammed into buildings is amazing to me. I mean, this thing screams of a Pilot or Pilots gone bad...but who knows.

    This was planned very well it seems.

    Assuming they glided the plane into the Indian ocean and knocked all the passengers out by depressurizing the cabin, would it be possible for them to escape before the plane sank into the deep and troubling Indian ocean?

    The route was preprogrammed from the start for the plane to turn right some time during the flight. That leads me to believe if they planned on living they would have also planned an exit route once the plane was to land. Maybe they received help at w/e coordinates they predetermined or just sank into the ocean with the rest of the passengers with the majority of the plane intact knowing damn well it will be extremely difficult for anyone to recover them.

    Overall this is just some evil sh!t.

    I thought DRONES were the biggest problem of the future but now it seems huge airplanes can also go undetected and can fly about without much notice.

    It's really strange. I'm guessing they wouldn't have been able to land it without one country noticing. Then of course the fuel of the plane, would it be enough to take them far enough to land somewhere that was accepting of them or around countries with good radar detection.

    I'm having trouble seeing suicide as the motive here. Nobody plans to kill 200 people in a suicide. So if this was a deliberate act that suggests a homicidal undertaking by at least one of the pilots and likely other persons unidentified as conspirators at this point. Having the transponder turned off at the point that the plane made it's sudden course correction suggests pretty strongly that the event was of a deliberate calculated nature.

    If somebody had taken credit for this we'd know it was a terrorist act. Absent that it must have been something else.

    The question is what was aboard that plane that made it worth killing 200 people and using a very risky strategy to steal?

    Although an announcement by terrorists would have come by now, there is also possibility somebody might claim responsibility in a few days. That said, I also don't think this was a suicide act or a terror act. Something is fishy though. The whole event is interesting to analyze.

    I've been thinking that the plane was taken with the goal of it being used for a future terrorist attack.

    And thats why I would be shocked if the plane is found in the water..and that the original plan even if the plane went down, was to land the plane for further use. WHY would you turn off the transponders and do everything you could do to go invisible if you were just going to take the plane down. Why?

    Who has the motive to commit suicide with over 200 people on board and the main goal is to not be found? I dont get that part and thats what leads me to believe that whatever shape the plane is in now..the original motive was to land that plane.

    This has to be a top 5 idea..has to be. The plan all along, I believe, was to successfully land that plane. So, why? Hostages? Why?

    I would have to put in there to use the plane again...agreed.

    I guess so DPF. I would think, once you are in the "space" of a country...Island..whatever that is "with" you, you could kind of disappear? I take it there are blank spots out over the ocean, which is shocking in this day and age.

    I dont know..I think they have closed in on what happened and what they are looking for. I have really followed this in the media and the past 48 hours, the news has dried up. Same ole crap over and over which I guess means they no longer are giving whoever out there... any more information on what they know...and what they are looking for.

    Stealing a plane to use in a terrorist attack sounds vaguely implausible. It creates too many failure points along the way. First you have to steal the plane, then you have to launch it again after refueling, then you have to actually hit your target, all in a plane that everybody on earth is looking for.

    I think theft is the more likely motive of an operation of this sort.

    Yeah the more I think about it, it has to be a small island somewhere they had to land or a country/airport in on it allowing them to land.

    I think, unfortunately, the most realistic possibility is the plane's plane might have been landing somewhere but they crashed into the ocean somewhere. I just can't believe everything that would happen for them to successfully land a plane with passengers and being able to do it without anyone knowing how or where it disappeared.

    Good stuff. Amazing the different angles that all make potential sense.
