NFT: What really happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?

SFGFNCGiantsFan : 6/18/2019 10:15 am
In a shocking twist-sarcasm-the Malaysian government was necessarily on the up & up about what truly transpired.

Interesting read & comes to the conclusion I initially thought too.

"The mystery surrounding MH370 has been a focus of continued investigation and a source of sometimes feverish public speculation. The loss devastated families on four continents. The idea that a sophisticated machine, with its modern instruments and redundant communications, could simply vanish seems beyond the realm of possibility. It is hard to permanently delete an email, and living off the grid is nearly unachievable even when the attempt is deliberate. A Boeing 777 is meant to be electronically accessible at all times. The disappearance of the airplane has provoked a host of theories. Many are preposterous. All are given life by the fact that, in this age, commercial airplanes don’t just vanish."

Nothing official, and I know Egypt claimed they found explosive traces on recovered bodies. France says they did not and have put together a case that the plane wasn’t airworthy. Egypt categorically denies that...

Good Article...

...pretty hair-raising, and yes, sounds like an intentional, bizarre, mass-murder.

What is missing however, is a suicide note or declaration of responsibility from a terrorist group.

Doesn't add up, does it? To me, it sounds like someone trying to STEAL the plane - depressurizing the cabin, killing all aboard, then repressurizing it and turning everything back on - the next act is to let the plane run out of gas and crash? Why not just crash in the first place?

A lot of unanswered questions.
I'm sure you're going to ask, so here's the story

I think the secrecy is probably as simple as not wanting to show how shoddy their air defense is.

Depressurizing the cabin was likely just a way to quietly and quickly kill everyone on board and give the pilot peace and quiet to do what he wanted to do next.

I think the article shows the pilot was not sound of mind and very possibly suicidal. Depressed and lonely, wife left him, children grown and gone. Would "pace rooms" to pass the time between flights. Wouldn't be the first time a guy took people with him on his way out.
What made it even weirder was MH17

getting shot down over Ukraine, not too long after. Mysterious and tragic.

the pilot ran a simulation of the flight plan it took then where is the mystery of what happened? Sadly such a huge part of the ocean and the fact it crashed at such a high speed it will be tough to find where it went down.

There is literally no mystery. Interesting story... Yes. No mystery.

Thanks for the link. Interesting discrepancies between the speculation(book) and the work of Black. I would find it extremely hard to believe that book's version was true. Those guys wouldn't have had time to think about looting in that melee, like they would just run off and grab stuff while people were dying. Sad.

I just typed and deleted a long screed about this. It was not my intention to rehash what was a blood-boiling incident for my family. I get enraged - not my usual less than serious BBI rage, but true fury - seeing his fucking name. He's a disgrace to his profession and a thoroughly dishonest sonofabitch.

I had no idea about this. I've always found Langewiesche did high-quality work on aviation subjects.

I am very sorry to hear of this and much, much more so for the heartbreak your family suffered...
This article raises some interesting points  
NYerInMA : 6/18/2019 6:18 pm : link
especially about the pilot's background and the Malaysian government's incompetence/corruption. But it's really sloppy in parts, especially when it dismisses Jeff Wise's theories about the motive and method out of hand. What this article doesn't mention is that none of the debris found from the plane had the expected biofouling on it, which is inconceivable for anything floating in the ocean as long as this debris was supposed to have been out there. Organisms colonize floating debris very quickly. Also, there are serious questions regarding the validity of the satellite data itself, especially after the mysterious reboot of the plane's electrical systems.

So, this mystery is far from "solved" and probably never will be.
