Meanwhile, military radar showed the jet climbed to 45,000ft – above its service limit – which could have been a deliberate attempt to knock out the passengers and crew.
Commonly cited as fact, but could well be just more Malaysian incompetence.
Anybody know how accurate "military" radar is at gauging the elevation at which a non-transponding aircraft is flying?
