I read on Aviation Herald a few days ago that the Capt. asked for an additional 2000 gal of fuel.(Can't verify that)I'd like to know is what was his actual load out. If you consider the fuel for the actual computed distance to the destination, plus the required reserves (to go to alternate, holds etc) AND an additional 2000 gal would give him considerable range.

The possibility of a cabin Dump is valid. Kill ‘em all.
What Blue Flag said is correct. Besides the pressure differential there is approximately 10 min of pax Oxygen

I don't believe the 40,000 ft per min figures, this is possibly radar induced figure.

I think the flight track was westerly, not this CNN BS about going north, or south to the Indian Ocean.

Anyone that has flown (as a pilot)at night will testify that air traffic controllers sometimes nod off.(Particularly in that part of the world) It wouldn't be that difficult just to follow the normal airways.

This a/c is on the ground and being repainted as we speak. Watch for an attack on Israel or the U.S. soon.

I’m hoping someone is watching for any unusual uptick in activity around nuclear facilities and waste sites, particularly in Iran. It would probably take some time to gut out a 777 and then load it with explosives and nuke waste so it can be used as a large dirty bomb. If that scenario is plausible, then the time left to stop it is running out.

This week, still missing 777 airliner that had two Muslim pilots and two Iranians with fake passports on board.

May 2nd, 2014 — anniversary of Navy Seal justice on Osama Bin Laden.

Al Quaeda and other Jihad-loving, murdering, fanatical terrorist groups love to carry out plots on anniversaries.

Connecting the dots??

2000 additional gallons of fuel? Oy! This 777-200ER has a max range of 7,725 miles when fully fueled (310,000 lbs.) and at max payload and the winds are at its tail.

Fuel consumption might be around 18,000 lbs./hr. but that depends on the weight of the cargo and the number of seats filled. So an additional 13,700 lbs. of fuel would have taken them an extra 3/4 hour flying time?

Could this plane have gotten as far as Pakistan or Iran? Could cargo be dumped in air?

That's major, if true. Can you get more info on it? Put's the "hijack" theory into the dustbin and also the pilot suicide theory. He wouldn't need more fuel to kill himself, just to get to a certain destination.

I looked him up online; he was busy doing "good guy" things in his neighborhood and posting them on youtube, maybe as a calculated way of deflecting suspicion. Had me fooled.
