New Evidence Suggests That Plane Disappearance Was A Deliberate Act

Two U.S. officials believe the shutdown of two separate communications systems from the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 happened at different times, indicating the disappearance was less likely the result of a catastrophic failure and more the result of a "deliberate act," according to a new report from ABC News.
Sources speaking with ABC believe the data reporting system was shut down at 1:07 a.m., while the transponder sending out location and altitude data was shut down at 1:21 a.m.
U.S. investigators are "convinced that there was manual intervention," one source told ABC, indicating an accident is not the reason the plane vanished.
If the disappearance of the plane were a result of a catastrophic failure, such as an explosion or engine malfunction, the systems likely would have stopped transmitting at the same time or within a much shorter period. But a 14-minute delay raises even more questions.
Further, investigators suspect the missing flight stayed in the air for about four hours after it reached its last confirmed location, according to Andy Pasztor of The Wall Street Journal.
With an accident becoming less likely, the scenarios for what happened are a hijacking or actions by rogue crew members. One person close to the investigation told The Wall Street Journal that there could be a third possibility: The plane could have been diverted "with the intention of using it later for another purpose."

The plane needs a big strip to land. I'm sure if someone pays attention and thinks outside the box, they'd find it.
Then, too....maybe a couple dudes jumped and put the plane on auto and doomed it.

Thanks blam.
Flight 93 was a daytime flight over land. Wasn't the missing airplane a late night flight that was over water during the first part of the flight? Perhaps a lot of the passengers were sleeping, and they might not have known they were off course.
I have posted in related threads that someone Tweeted soon after news of the plane being ‘lost’ that it had landed in the south part of Vietnam.
Considering that the officials and media have claimed debris fields in several opposing directions and different mileages, that the plane may have been taken over and landed in some remote locations seems as valid as the other claims.
We should know soon if there is a ransom demand, but I doubt it, since the plane did not go down now as they are saying. Megan Kelly discussing it now on Fox, and saying five hours flying after last communication and fuel for area size of 6 US’s...a lot of territory, ocean and land.
Do we know if anyone flies beside pilot and co-pilot?
Wouldn’t hurt to check sea on east side of Vietnam. Heck we are checking anywhere. Last known location ... unknown.
When does your book come out?
That vacation I planned to NK has been cancelled.
....Another purpose indeed.....here is the other purpose....while every news media outlet in the nation has your attention focused on the missing plane , Obama and his failed “Russian Reset”{thanks Hillary} is being overlooked, as once again, this administration embarrasses the United States of America upon the world stage....I believe Obama’s “Clinton Moment” is just around the corner and its gonna pack one hell of a punch directed solely at the Oval Office and will further tarnish its image around the world , unless of course you still think that Clinton was simply careless with his sexual deviance and the incident was not choreographed...
"five different ways [for pilots] to report back to home base or somewhere, wouldn't they figure out a way to get some message out?"
To which this aviation expert responds:
"Every pilot is trained to first fly the airplane and then communicate. So, if they are not doing that and the airplane is airborne, they're disabled"
I beg to differ here, specifically in this instance because of the reports of multiple security breaches which include:
'stolen passports' being of particular interest given
. . .etc.
In my opinion, another possible scenario to consider, beyond the suggested possibility of a disabled flight crew, especially given the aggregious, albeit partial list of security breaches above,
considering 24 hours.
A ton of territory.
There was also a news report that the plane landed in Nanjing China at 9:30 am. This report was quickly pulled.
Commercial planes. Not as suspect. Just my opinion.
Wait, did you just say George Nurey hijacked a plane? Doesn’t he have enough crow on his plate with that radio program he spins from coast to coast???
Did you see the satellite image, it was huge covering China and parts of India....vast search area.

I attended one of George Noory's lectures and during question time, I asked if there was ever a guest who was so 'out there' that he just booted the guest off.
He chuckled - said he didn't. He gave such a sincere response and I believe him.
A very sweet fella' and he is covering new "news" on this mystery. He has interviewed pilots and I think a few people who study terrorists.
Yes, he does have a full plate! He has discussed theories and some are 'out there.'
Still, I listen, especially when he covers GMO's and his theories re: lost jet are sometimes no different than the theories we get in the news. <8^)
Didn’t Art Bell move to someplace in Asia? Maybe this is his stunt.
And Art DID refuse to have some “out there” guests back which contributed to his downfall/leaving.
