I posted 2 days ago that I thought the 2 oil slicks, but no debris field, showed that the terrorists made the pilot go dark, and dump fuel so they could fly low under radar, and land at a captive, prearranged airfield with waiting islamist pirates. Some INTELSAT knows what happened... hard to do anything these days with so many electronic eyes/ears in the sky.
They’re saying the airplane turned. So you may be on to something.
