When I turned on the morning news, FoxNews was speaking with aviation expert Scott Hamilton.
Hamilton conjectured, based on available information, that ‘some criminal action’ was probably involved.
Apparently, the plane disappeared from radar after a couple of hours in flight, but continued to fly for some time after contact was lost.
“Apparently, the plane disappeared from radar after a couple of hours in flight, but continued to fly for some time after contact was lost.”
Hmmm ...... First I’ve heard that. I wonder if that’s true
How do you disappear from radar but continue flying? Turn it off or malfunction of radar?
How do they know it continued flying if no radar and no communication? Based on the oil spills?
Ping.

Haven’t read all the reports, but what do you mean “fly for some time” after contact was lost.
While enroute at altitude, radio calls and electronic communication between the airliner and ATC or the company are infrequent, so how would “they” know contact was lost?
