Weird. For the terrorist conspiracy folks, that puts it on a direct course to the most radical province in Indonesia. However, the idea it could secretly land there is nutz.

It leads to Somalia.. Only 3500 miles, well in the range of that aircraft.
Flying low to avoid radar...

That is a long way from where they were supposed to be. Why? A hijacking would kind of make sense, but the pilot could squawk 7500 on the ATC transponder without arousing too much suspicion.

From their last reported position to Mogadishu is 4,000 miles and 7.25 hours. Maybe a little longer to avoid Sri Lanka and stay over water.
Looks like Pulau Perak would have been on the way.
Of course, they'd have needed a full fuel load, not just a Beijing load. Perhaps a little palm-grease at KUL to arrange it?
Then what's next ... ?
