I think it’s become clear that this was a hijacking. I think the ac has most likely crashed in the Indian Ocean. That seems to be the case based on the evidence/information we, the public, have been given up to now. It either crashed or was shot down. I would like to think those passengers are still alive on some remote airfield in Aceh or one of the islands, but it’s not looking like it.
I dont think they would have flown the plane for hours just to crash it into the Indian Ocean..I think that by bringing it to 45,000 feet, the passengers died(And I hope they did NOT suffer, I just hope that God was waiting for them as the entered heaven and that there was no pain) which was the hijackers intention all along, then they take the plane to Pakistan or Iran, refuel it, do a nice paint job on it, rename it American Airlines or whatever, and in a few months, bring it here and blow it up, my guess if I were a betting person, Wall Street..big impact, deaths in the thousands
