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.
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.
