Yes, the ocean is gigantic, and it is entirely possible that no trace will ever be found. We will just have to wait and see. If memory serves me right, there was a B-17 that crashed in the California mountains during World War 11, and was only found fairly recently. I remember seeing the story of the Lady be Good. I think they found 7 of the 8 bodies. I have been on some mountain roads in the Philippines, and I always thought if we went over the side, they would never find us.
Jimmy Hoffa has the 777 at his secret island compound.
I prefer “Lost Horizon.”
If a plane that big hit land (crashed) anywhere, it would be smoking for days.
Very strange.
Big plane, lots of fuel, big fire if flown into the ground.
If into the sea, parts and some bodies float. The black box has its own power and would be transmitting.
Those who compare this to WWII era lost planes, or the fifties or even sixties, crack me up.
Why not talk about the wagon trains that got lost and vanished crossing Utah or Nevada in the 1800’s?
A 777 can’t go missing today. It’s impossible with modern tracking systems and embedded computers and satellite monitoring and everything else.
It took the Malaysian Air Force four days to realize they had it tracked across the peninsula into the Andaman Sea? Yeah, right.
The inescapable fact is that the PTB know what happened to it, and they’re not talking.
And oh BTW, they don’t talk about UFOs, either.
So it’s not that those dots must be connected.
But they can be connected.
I’m quite convinced something happened.
It stopped working on your end but surely when you tried to call the destroyed cell you go a ring-tone and perhaps were even sent to your voicemail. This happened to me before. It seems these people think that just because the phone appears to be ringing on the caller's end it, it means the phone on the other end must be still working.
If this was so, then why do we have to call an outside number to listen to our voicemails?
the ringing cellphone and logged into accounts can happen. you see people logging in and online all the time but they are not.
as for the ringing phones after a bit of reading it appears there is a series of events that can happen to allow phones to ring even when they are not.
so for example (from what i have read), if you were sitting on the tarmac and forgot to turn off your phone the network logs you into a cell tower. as you leave that cell tower it expects you to be connect to another tower but you dont as you head out to sea. you appear online but no call can connect BUT you are still registered online.
also apparently and i didnt know this but if your phone receives a sudden shock while connected and the battery is disconnected the cell tower and systems dont register you offline. so if you ring its the exchange ringing (the last one you connected with), not the the phone. so the phones have a number of reasons for ringing but they are not.
i am amazed no one has tried tracking the phones to see where they were last since they flew over populated areas,they would reconnect to the towers. also i wonder did the plane have wifi or cellphone coverage, if so it would be easier to track its location to within a mile or so.
A plane hijacking is not a conspiracy theory.
For some reason this writer wants us to think that anything other than the plane disintegrating is absolutely not worthy of sane consideration. And then she has the gall to state the known fact that the plane completely reversed course from its intended destination...a clear sign that something unususal was happening.
She even lists suicide on her list....when such a thing has happened before. And “hijacking” a conspiracy theory? Has anyone told this lady about the World Trade Center?
I just listened to an expert of Fox say that if the plane turned off its tracking equipment and then flew at a low altitude that it would be virtually untrackable.
Hijackers could have taken the plane and then crash it, intentionally or through bad navigation or fuel decisions.
