Malaysian Airlines MH370

[Frowg]

What I think happened is that there was probably a malfunction in the area of the plane that holds all the wiring and electrical stuff for the technology that controls it; possibly a fire that caused damage to other things, such as the AKARS system. The head pilot probably felt obligated as the one with more experience to go down and check. Perhaps the fire caused fumes that were toxic rendering the pilot incapacitated and the co pilot (who looks younger than me) probably shit his pants, since he was flying over the ocean, too far from anyone for verbal communication, and with the AKARS system malfunctioned. The sharp turn was most likely him trying to turn around and head home, but he probably got confused, and just flew until the plane ran out of fuel.

Honestly, I feel like it was most likely just some kind of technical failure. If the debris they found is the plane, which I'm doubting the more I think of it, and they can retrieve the "black box" hopefully we'll know more. I just feel like the simplest answer is usually it.

Only problem with that is this: The emergency locator beacon is located in the tail of the aircraft, and it is powered by a battery... someone disabled it on purpose, before the plane left the ground, or we would have found the plane by now.

It's possible. Also possible it was damaged in the crash or thereafter. It's also said that those ELTs only work about 80% of the time.

All I can say is that my thoughts go out to the families of those who are missing. This must be a terrible ordeal for them.

There are low-life's trying to profit from this tragedy. What pond scum.

Spammers and scammers and identity thieves have no ethics.

I wish these "news" network vultures would shut the fuck up about Flight 370 until and unless they find new, conclusive evidence. Oh, wait, that's right. TV news is about keeping folks glued to the screen so the network can shovel loads of commercials at them.
