Radar Shows Plane Deliberately Flew Toward Indian Ocean: Reports
NBC News ^ | March 14, 2014 | Alastair Jamieson

Posted on 03/14/2014 9:03:51 AM PDT by SatinDoll

Military radar evidence suggests the missing Malaysia Airlines jetliner was deliberately flown west toward the Indian Ocean’s Andaman Islands, sources told Reuters on Friday as mounting evidence pointed to a criminal inquiry into Flight MH370.

Two sources told Reuters that an unidentified aircraft – believed by investigators to be the missing Boeing 777 - was following a route between navigational way-points, indicating it was being flown by someone with aviation training when it was last plotted on military radar off the country's northwest coast.

This is either a diversion, or it was someone/something on that plane

Maybe someone with Obama's original BC/school/college records.

we have an interest in the reliability of civil airliners
because we fly in them and huge commerce and thousands of jobs depend upon it.

I've been reading elsewhere theories about the company that had all the employees on board, fast-something or other. They were developing very interesting electronics.

Freescale Semiconductor? They are based in Austin and have 23,000 employees worldwide. They had 20 people on MH 370 — 12 Malaysians and 8 Chinese.

Also, four of the five patent holders for some product of this company that held the potential to earn billions... were on board. Leaving ONE patent holder, and a huge incentive to disappear the rest. AND the patent was just approved. One owner stands to suddenly get very rich.

Inventors and patent holders are not the same. Normally, if these guys invented whatever while working for Freescale, then Freescale would be the assignee, and there would be no opportunity for the surviving inventor to become extraordinarily rich as a result of not having to share the royalties, which would flow to Freescale, as assignee.

Soft landing. No crash. No black boxes. No ELT signal.

Look up North to North-East around Afghanistan or Kazakhstan.

Do we know the approximate location Bin Laden was dumped in the water?

Is that location within reach of this Airplane??

Interesting. I was just wondering a minute ago if there is any significance in the Muslim world regarding the day this went missing and now you post this. Indeed, this is looking more and more like a hijacking gone wrong. Or maybe its how they wanted it to go? Something symbolic like Crash everyone into the ocean like Usama was reportedly buried?

You are asking the right questions. The silence from the world’s largest governments is telling to me.

ROP, Religion-Of-Peace.

Anyway, Drudge has on now as their headline the plane flew on for 7 hours. That’s quite awhile as if 3 or 4 weren’t enough.

They missed the mark by a few days, then.

Missing airliner may have flown on for 7 hours

The relevant quote:

Although U.S. officials previously said they believed the plane could have remained in the air for several extra hours, Najib said Saturday that the flight was still communicating with satellites until 8:11 a.m. — seven and a half hours after takeoff, and more than 90 minutes after it was due in Beijing. There was no further communication with the plane after that time, Najib said. If the plane was still in the air, it would have been nearing its fuel limit.

I can say with great certainty that this area is no where near the alleged spot where OBL was allegedly dumped. The Vinson was never this far up the Indian Ocean on that deployment.

The involved engineers were apparently from a packaging facility not a design or apps team.

I agree, the “cargo” on board was the target. I wonder if the plane was put down near a sub that was waiting for them.

I still stand by my analysis in post #8. Based on what has happened in the last 24 hours let explain what is actually happening. There are now “2” tracks that they are looking at. One going to the northwest and the second to the southwest. Why 2 tracks? Because they are looking at ranging data “from the aircraft to one geostationary satellite (22000 miles), that happened to picked up the pings; 2 geo satellites would be required to eliminate one of the tracks”. Now, the AHM system is designed to work with the low earth orbit Iridium satellite system. The Iridium system provides global coverage. Why aren’t they analyzing the Iridium data? I do not know. That data should give a very accurate ground track of the plane.
