I've avoided this topic, waiting for another shoe to drop. Now it has.
Malaysian Air Flight 370 has been an enigma almost right from the beginning. Large jet aircraft do not simply disappear. Not in 2014. A little voice in my head kept saying that there's a lot more than we're being told.
No debris field was found. Had the jet exploded high in the air, a large debris field would have been spotted, as seen following the loss of TWA flight 800. If the jet dove into the water, the debris field would have been smaller, but most definitely findable. The black boxes are designed to send signals following a crash or an explosion. It hasn't. The 777 has redundant communications systems, which are not easy to disable.
We were told the aircraft just disappeared without a trace. Later we learned that that was not true. The Malaysian government has been the biggest pain in the ass during the time the flight has been missing.
Kuala Lumpur: Malaysian authorities said on Thursday there was no evidence that a jetliner missing for almost six days flew for hours after losing contact with air traffic controllers and continued to transmit technical data.
Those in the know knew better:
U.S. investigators suspect that Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 stayed in the air for up to four hours past the time it reached its last confirmed location, according to two people familiar with the details, raising the possibility that the plane could have flown on for hundreds of additional miles under conditions that remain murky.The investigators believe the plane flew for a total of up to five hours, according to these people, based on analysis of signals sent by the Boeing 777's satellite-communication link designed to automatically transmit the status of certain onboard systems to the ground.
Throughout the roughly four hours after the jet dropped from civilian radar screens, these people said, the link operated in a kind of standby mode and sought to establish contact with a satellite or satellites. These transmissions did not include data, they said, but the periodic contacts indicate to investigators that the plane was still intact and believed to be flying.
But those dopes in Kuala Lumpur denied it:
"Those reports are inaccurate," Malaysian Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein told a news conference. "As far as both Rolls-Royce and Boeing are concerned, those reports are inaccurate. The last (data) transmission from the aircraft was at 01:07 a.m.(local time) which indicated that everything was normal."
Now the big question- is the Malaysian government that stupid or are they inept? Or worse?
It stinks. It stinks bad.
Now come some amazing revelations:
The pilot is described as a "fanatic" and there is more eyebrow raising news:
An image has emerged of the pilot of the missing Malaysia Airlines jet wearing a T-shirt with a 'Democracy is Dead' slogan as it has been revealed he could have hijacked the plane in an anti-government protest.Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah, a father-of-three, was said to be a 'fanatical' supporter of the country's opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim - jailed for homosexuality just hours before the jet disappeared.
It has also been revealed that the pilot's wife and three children moved out of the family home the day before the plane went missing.
It comes as FBI investigators say the disappearance of MH370 may have been ‘an act of piracy’ and the possibility that hundreds of passengers are being held at an unknown location has not been ruled out.
Officials also revealed that it is possible the aircraft could have landed and transmitted a satellite signal from the ground. If the plane was intact and had enough electrical power in reserve, it would be able to send out a radar 'ping'.
The second we learned that officials were seeking to search the pilot's home it was apparent something curious was ongoing, and we weren't privy to it.
Malaysian officials are now certain that the jet was hijacked.
The jet is described as having climbed to 45,000 feet, possibly to cause the passengers and crew to lose consciousness, before plunging rapidly. The accuracy of the altitude changes is in dispute, however:
Goglia said he is very skeptical of reports the plane was flying erratically while it was being tracked by military radar, including steep ascents to very high altitudes and then sudden, rapid descents. Without a transponder signal, the ability to track planes isn't reliable at very high altitudes or with sudden shifts in altitude, he said.
There seems little doubt that the aircraft was hijacked and given the complexity of the actions taken, it appears that it was conducted by those with specially trained skills:

You have been watching to many movies.
The pilot was upset about his gay political obsession was incarcerated? His wife had just left him?
Was the pilot gay? Did he down the plane as an act of homosexual terrorism in revenge for his gay leader’s incarceration? Legitimate questions.
Yea, the missile talk was all smoke and mirrors. We never did find that missing missile or the guilty ones who shot it.
I am a Mason.
What is so signifcant about the number 13 in Masonry.
Also, I can’t think of even a remote reason for 11 being a number any more important than 2, 5, 8, 9, 58 or any other number to infinity
Bingo
I think his intentions may have been to land the plane at an undisclosed location and offer to trade the 239 passengers for the immediate release of Ibrahim. Perhaps the Malaysian government accidentally shot down the unidentified aircraft flying over their nation before they had found out that Flight 370 was missing and perhaps this is the reason they keep sending the international search crews on wild goose chases so that the evidence is not found.
How strong is the signal from the black box supposed to be?
Very strong.
We know the Pilot’s family moved out the day before, 370 went missing.
Does anybody know where his family is NOW???
Haven’t heard this discussed.
More likely the 239 passengers were going to be used as a trade for the release of his political hero.
“Turn on the underwater landing lights”...
Pretty good bet China downed the plane and they’re not telling.
what does ‘secondary’ radar mean?
(or primary)
..............
with transponder turned off.
how does radar determine height?
We’ll never know. Let the thousand conspiracy theories bloom.
Whats the difference between primary and secondary radar systems?

I worked on the early versions of the flight data recorders. They used a thin metal roll (like foil but much stronger) The system used four scribes to record the information, one for altitude, one for airspeed and two for heading, one North/South, and one East/West.
The foil could not be burned or destroyed in a crash. It was a PITA to work with because it was razor sharp. The foil roll only lasted 100 hours. We were happy once they changed the design to what they are using now.
Keep in mind that the beacon relies on a battery that is a time change item. If they did not change the batteries no pings or a reduced life.
3D RADAR goes back to the 60’s. Where a pulse is transmitted from a multi-feedhorn is only received from a barker-encoded signal to that feedhorn in an integrator type of receiver.
That information can be further analyzed due to signal strength as to what angle had the greatest return.
This gives you altitude. Azimuth is a given.
Aren’t the twenty or so scientist on the plane experts in making military planes disappear? TINFOIL. Could they be doing an experiment using one of their “new” techniques? /TF
