Malaysian Air Flight 370: what you need to know
Flopping Aces ^ | 03-16-14 | DrJohn

mh 370

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:

American Constitutionalist (I love your screen name), if you are referring to the motive in Executive Decision, I don’t recall what that was. If you are referring to the motives behind the Malaysian incident, which one?

Ok, yes, I admit that Stealth like plane attaching it's self to the 747 was laughable, but how about the rest ?
Ok, I admit, landing a crippled 747 at Fredrick Maryland's airport was a tough one to take also.

Look up 747 cargo door failures. Look at the pics, then look at the reconstruction of 800.

Sure was a lot of missiles flying around.

No, sir. You are thinking about a crash out of Peru that had blocked static ports.

The Air France accident was pilot error that started with unusual attitudes as a result of a thunderstorm.

Was the FDR still active when they finally retrieved it ? or did the batteries die a few days or weeks later ?

Get a life.

I’m not interested in watching your contrived videos.

If you look into the history of the church, some midget king in France and the Knights Templar and you will get a very different view of why the church has their contrived angst against Masonry.

Further, luv’d your brilliant explanation about numbers.

I’m sure you read some anecdotal crap by people “in the know “ but, we pray to the one True God, your creator and mine.

That can’t possibly be Satan or any lesser being.

Our oaths constantly affirm we won’t go against our conscience , God, our families and in particular our country.

If you have some specific claim or mystery you’d like an explanation for, let me know and I will do my best to answer it.

I didn’t remember the part about landing at Frederick, Maryland. I hope my buddies at the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association were looking out the window.

Yeah, that is a tough one to take, too.

I’m sorry sir. I watched that Executive Decision movie and giggled so much that I don’t really remember it.

I meant, the plot and motive by the middle eastern terrorists in the movie Executive Decision and using a hijacked plane as their means to deliver their payload by whatever means they would use.

AC, I think the FDRs were able to give good data. I’d have to do some research to know for sure.

That Peru crash was also in some very deep water.

Wow, a bit of attitude there buddy.....

By the way ? I didn't make that video about the Freemasons and the Illuminati, Pastor Mike Hoggart did.

Nah, most likely icing on the pitot tubes. The Peru crash was because a plane washer left tape on the static ports and the crew missed it on walk around.

8 minutes of oxygen with a fanatical Moslem at the controls, what can you do?

Carry reserve o2? wear an altitude alarm that informs you when the inside of the aircraft is ABOVE 6,000ft? I have worked at 19,000agl, its a chore.

And what use is an Air Marshall? he gets hypoxia as well, unless he has his own air supply.

Its all about Moslems, all the time, everywhere.

I didn’t watch the videos, so I haven’t a clue who made nor who he is.

As far as attitude, yeah, I got one. My ADHD doesn’t allow me tolerate being “Rick Rolled”.

You offered nothing specific so I guess there’s nothing more to discuss

The official report did cite iced pitot tubes, but it goes on to cite the pilot’s inability to fly the aircraft without proper airspeed indications.

The captain was out of the cockpit. Junior officers were on the flight deck.

Pilots should be able to set power, hold a certain pitch attitude, and make the aircraft perform they way they want. These junior officers were incapable of doing that.

Sir, I’ve been training pilots for over thirty years. Today’s kids are computer programmers, not pilots. I train my pilots to fly without airspeed, without gyros,.....everything.

Also, you have the MCO license in Europe, where first officers are cockpit ‘assistants’. They don’t go through regular pilot training.

I hear ya. I call them Xbox 1 seat jockeys. Same thing happened when that 777 pilot landed short in California. Turn off INS and GPS and most would be lost in a flash.

Close! Here it is: No. 1: “We will hear from number 2, who is in charge of our NATO project, the most ambitious SPECTRE has ever undertaken. Your report Number 2”. No. 2: “Thank you Number 1”.

I’ve been to 16,000feet, snowboarding in the Andes.

Things got so much better when I got back down to 10k.

Funny as hell though.

Yeah it was a broken down snowcat just short of 10,000 above Heavenly many years ago in the Sierra Nevada mountains.

Make me second think about flying anymore, totally at the mercy of who is driving the plane, and there is no way we can ask if they are Moslems.
