US officials are now coming out and publicly stating that the Malaysians have from the beginning been putting out false information to mislead searchers.
Nothing that comes from Malaysia can be trusted including what was supposedly on this pilot’s computer.
"With contradictory statements and backtracking by Malaysian authorities involved in the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, pilots and other aviation officials are asking if there is a conflict of interest on the part of Putrajaya in leading the probe into the disappearance of the aircraft. The Sydney Morning Herald (SMH) reported that chatter on the Professional Pilots Rumour Network have raised the possibility that the inconsistencies were a result of Putrajaya's efforts to "save face" as evidence point to possible pilot complicity in the disappearance of the aircraft more than 10 days ago. Several pilots have in fact called for the US authorities to take over the investigation, the report said.
That is one important takeaway. Another is skepticism over ALL the media reports as each one races to be first.
