One day, perhaps, a rainbow-coloured luggage strap or a royal blue seat cover will wash up on a pristine west Australian beach. But until then, we might never be sure what happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370. The shocking disappearance of the Boeing 777 a year ago tomorrow still baffles the experts, who cannot find a trace of wreckage or come up with a definitive explanation for its sudden disappearance. More tragically, its loss still haunts the lives of those whose friends and family were aboard the doomed plane. Here, we round up the key theories – and the few facts – that could help explain one of international air travel’s most disturbing and enduring mysteries.

I think either the captain or co-captian took the plane down as a jihad thing.Somebody knows and is not saying anything...and we will probably never know.

It took 2 years for them to find the Air France flight...and they had a good idea where it was when they started the search.

It took 2 years for them to find the Air France flight's black boxes (in deep water, with rugged, undersea mountainous terrain)

Search & Rescue found pieces of the wreckage in a matter of hours.

When you look at the bits and pieces of marginal data that we have....it leaves a trail and there’s just not much doubt that either the pilot or co-pilot did it. The reason? Unknown.

I watched an interview with an Australian official last week, who is heading up the search. He was absolutely confident that they will find the plane eventually....intact. The fact that no wreckage has come out of this episode makes him think the plane came into a controlled landing on the water and just sunk. Beyond that, he won’t guess what developed on the plane.

LTG McInerney (sp?) was back on Fox & Friends this morning still suggesting we look in the ‘Stans.

A flight simulator recovered from Captain Shah’s home revealed a deleted flight path to a remote island far into the southern Indian Ocean. Investigators suggest he may have deliberately diverted his own plane from its approved flight path to Beijing, but fellow pilots say such practice is routine during long-haul flights.

Can anyone explain this to me?

WTF? Why? We could easily buy one on the open market. It is pretty clear the passengers were dead - before it “crashed”.

McInerney’s position has not evolved over the last year. He agrees the passengers are dead. He suspects the plane was intentionally diverted for some other purpose with the intent to land the plane safely.

The guy’s got connections. I’m not saying he’s right, but I’m withholding judgment.
