Re
WE don’t know who was in command of this flight, but we do know that he knows how to fly a 777 so it is not likely that he ran out of fuel over the ocean. No nutcase gun slinger would even know how to turn off two transponders, much less manage the fuel systems, etc., for 5 hours. One of the crew was involved and the Malaysian government or someone within the government was/is involved. Again, who were the Chinese on board?~old curmudgeon

Reports have revealed...

Crew was out ... hypoxia ... see details here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helios_Airways_Flight_522

Helios Airways Flight 522 was a scheduled Helios Airways passenger flight that crashed into a mountain on 14 August 2005 at 12:04 pm EEST, north of Marathon and Varnavas, Greece, whilst flying from Larnaca, Cyprus to Athens, Greece.

A lack of oxygen incapacitated the crew, leading to the aircraft’s eventual crash after running out of fuel.

Takes about 30 seconds w/o oxygen and your reactions are crap at 30,000 feet ... and since your O2 bottle JUST ruptured your hull the ship (and you) are toast (RIP crew and pax).

As long as were thinking of all possibilities :
Isn’t it possible that it landed and refueled somewhere before heading to its final destination ?
