Why would the yanks be the least bit interested in this saga unless there's a hella of lot more to it?
My (uneducated) guess is tending more and more to the plane being on the ground in either Kazakhstan or Uzbekistan, getting to the destination undected by Keith Ledgerwoods theory (read Road Warriors Very interesting link). Motive being the IP & knowledge that those 20 passengers from the secretive electronic cloaking company that were passengers. Al Qaeda (who have previously had extensive training camps in both the above) have been quiet for some time... Suicide bombers etc, nowadays being pretty old hat. (Sad eh?) Maybe their involvement is higher technology for more future deeds?

That's what the Gov wants you to think! lol
![]() Here's another one detailing the high value targets/passengers on the plane: http://beforeitsnews.com/events/2014...s-2432766.html Certainly makes an interesting story out of this tragic mystery. |

Geez I wonder how much money the US spent to develop the stealth fighter and stealth bomber when all you had to do was turn off the radio...

The same people collecting intelligence in regards to invading Ukraine? Two dead Navy Seals would not have family asking questions? Families asked questions when KIA so they would ultimately ask questions. Maersk Alabama? Convieniently the same container ship hijacked by Somali pirates and was last in the Seychelles to do the filiming of the movie Captain Philips? I think some Ruski decided to put 2 and 2 together and come up with 20. |

Surprised it took this long to start making the rounds...Australians are usually pretty good at making jokes quite quickly as a way of reacting to terrible events and dealing with them...
![]() For example, I heard my first "Challenger" joke the morning I went to TAFE after it had been broadcast live on TV early that morning (the old "What does NASA stand for? Need Another Seven Astronauts" one) |

quick google search for '2 dead navy seals' brings up the following links: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...-US-SEALs.html http://www.cbsnews.com/news/2-ex-nav...re-police-say/ "Two former US Navy SEALS have been found dead on the Maersk Alabama in the Seychelles Seychelles police identified the men on Thursday as Jeffrey Reynolds and Mark Kennedy. The men, both 44, were found dead on Tuesday Both served in the elite Navy SEALS before beginning work for private defense contractor The cause of the men's death is believed to be a heroin overdose The Maersk Alabama was targeted by Somali pirates in an attempted hijacking off the east coast of Africa in 2009. The 2013 film Captain Phillips is based on the incident." |

They've done well as it's up to the tenth page and they're only coming out now. You'd think somethings would be respected, but I guess not.
![]() I keep thinking every morning when I wake up there will be some good news like they have located it. But no only more theories or BS, when is this going to end? Must be driving the family and friends of the passengers nuts. |

Yes please enlighten us. This thread is related to the discussion of MH370, and unfortunately there are a lot of stories out there going around which, believe it or not, are actually on topic with the OP. People here may be able to debunk other theories from things they have read as well. There isn't anyone trolling here, except the troll calling others trolls for actually being on topic. Perhaps this thread should be renamed to MH370 - no discussion allowed.

Or we could get a mod to go through and clean it up so only facts remain.
It would look something like this. Quote:

I still find it mind boggling that in 2014 a commercial passenger jetliner (of any company/country) can disappear mid flight.
If it's foul play which is the general consensus then the civil aviation industry needs another post 9/11 type overhaul big time. There's more spy and comm satellites up there than stars yet 10+ days in they still don't even know which Ocean to search in! Flying is said to be the safest form of transport. I say it's the ultimate form of vulnerability!

The families will certainly want the plane found within two years. After that the frequent flyer points will expire, and without knowing the crash location, the airline wont know the flight distance to credit the relevant number of points.

Overdoses aren't always instant, people can nod off and die quite slowly Reports say they'd been out on the town prior drinking heavily, it's not unlike what happened to two guys in Sydney's Kings Cross a few years back, one died and the other just survived. Survivor nodded off and woke up to find his mate dead, he faced criminal charges over the death of his mate who he'd injected. |

Wonder how true this is
![]() Going about his work nonchalantly at his office in Gachibowli, this techie probably beat search teams of various countries in finding a probable vital clue related to the missing Malaysian plane. An IT analyst by profession, Anoop Madhav Yeggina had been scurrying through innumerable images of DigitalGlobe Satellite QB02 over the past few days until he stumbled upon an image which almost took his breath away. He had found a satellite image of a large aircraft flying very low above the Andaman Islands on March 8 which he believes is the Boeing 777 of Malaysian airlines. The 29-year-old is among the lakhs of people from across the globe involved in the ‘crowd-sourcing’ project to find the missing plane with more than 200 passengers on board. He had uploaded his “discovery” along with a write-up on the CNN website on Friday, March 14, and since then received more than 16,000 views, followed by many comments from viewers. “I am confident that the image is that of the missing plane because of many reasons. First giveaway is the fact that the image was captured just above a forest and very close to the Shibpur air strip of Andaman Islands. The air strip is exclusively used by the defence forces with no permission for civilian aircraft in this area. A close look at the image will reveal if it is flying extremely low so much so that the clouds are above it which suggests it was done to avoid detection by radar. Most importantly, the standard scale measurement and colour of the missing plane matches with that of the plane in the image,” said Mr. Anoop. Wishing for safety of the passengers, he had appealed online to people with technical know-how of aircraft to further investigate the image in order to trace its whereabouts. http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/...?homepage=true

Doubt it's legit.
Shadow is wrong IMO, it's the exact same size as the plane, meaning the plane would need to almost be at ground level. Then there are the trees, (which I assume they are) look tiny compared to the plane. A plane that low will make the trees look very large in scale, not the pin heads they appear to be. The bleached white colour of the plane??? Compared to the rest that isn't all that sharp?? Where are the cloud shadows?? They would be visible. Oh, a 'lakh' is 100,000 ![]()
