This whole thing is strange. They flipped off the flight recorders, went to the ceiling, descended rapidly, took a left, then a right, and then poof, gone into the ether.
The cyber hijack, while extremely remote, I suppose is possible but unlikely.
The best thought I have seen so far is that they were headed for Diego Garcia, a military island where the US has a major runway where we can project military power into most of the Indian ocean, Africa, and SE Asia. A hit there would be a major blow to that projection and would benefit the Chinese immensely as well as anyone in Afria up to the Russain border in range of B-52’s.
Don’t rule out the Chinese...it’s citizen are expendable to it’s government and with Diego Garcia neutralized they could do whatever they wanted while Bath House Barry diddles with Reggie Love.

There were a bunch of employees on there from Freescape/The Carlyle Group.
Maybe China wanted to hurt that company in retribution over one of their employees outing the Spying. The guy who was murdered/suicided.
Motive Kind of far fetched (but so is this whole thing)..but it is completely possible China did it for whatever reason.
I thought that the ‘flight recorders’ were those black box things. Can those be flipped off in flight by someone?
