and that island would be --
The plane is at the bottom of the Indian Ocean.
Any good guesses on islands in the southern Indian Ocean that have runways of any kind?
Hey Issa....buy a clue

It’s at the bottom of the ocean for sure. I think he called the tower and said that he would crash the plane unless certain demands were not met regarding the release of his buddy that went to prison the day before. They didn’t comply so he crashed it. http://shanghaiist.com/2014/03/17/links-between-mh370-disappearance-zaharie-politics-dismissed.php
That seems like a very probable scenario.
What function would a plane of this nature have in terrorist hands? Consider 9/11 with an EMP, NORK/Nukes, or a chemical weapon payload coming into a large American city (LA, NYC, Washington?) and let you imagination go from there...
My guess as to the island on his computeror is New Amsterdam:

It appears to be the destination of the 450knot flight path that the NTSB initially charted then abandoned:

Was the captain a member of the ROP? That’s all you need to know.
I will say this again and again...
It would be one of the lamest terror attempts to use a plane everyone knows went missing. Everyone in the world KNOWS about it and knows they would have to watch for it.
Also lame even if it was literally just a transport. Why draw so much attention to your conspiracy with a worldwide news item?
He was a MINO —
He wasn't and isn't in jail -- so there would be no reason to make the demand.

You read my mind!
But could he have made it to that island with the fuel he had on board?
A plane that size, crammed with just conventional explosives would probably be the equivalent of a small nuke.
If crammed with dirty bomb material, much worse.
Yes he could have but just barely and with luck.
They said he had fuel for 7.5 to 8 hours at 520mph — 3900 to 4160 miles.
The path that he flew would have been 4230 miles — out of reach but it could still have been a target destination and may be in the waters a couple hundred miles short of it — if that is the island on his computer.
