    re:theory of aircraft is in Pakistan, delivered there to Taliban by a complicit Pakistan govt.

    Taking on the challenge of disproving a theory with documented articles, though unfortunately not from CNN or Fox news.

    link debunking theory of plane reaching either Pakistan or China un-noticed

    Basically stating that India has a vested military interest in monitoring the sky over Pakistan from multiple vantage points, and certainly China keeps a watch on its boundaries.
    Pakistan's coastline however is 1,064km facing its southern boundary- the Arabian Sea, which the entire length of is unlikely to be monitored in its entirety by Indian ground based radar. hmmm possible weakness?? Well between India and UAE, all of Pakistan's coastline, and more importantly the approach to the coastline is easily within reach of ground based radar from both India and UAE monitoring activities in and overtop of the Gulf of Oman (350km distance between UAE and Pakistan; ground based radar can see out to 600km+. Note the Gulf of Oman is the entrance/exit from the Persian Gulf, with oil tanker traffic, ports for Kuwait, Iraq, and Iran)

    Also no rationale the Pakistan military / civilian radar would want to co-operate with a radical, minority group operating and terrorizing its own population within its boundaries.

    One theory (read "speculation") that a friend of mine and I researched, was based on the question: Where could you land a 777, unnoticed? The parameters we gave ourselves, prior to knowing how much fuel was on board, were the planes's specifications for a 777-200ER variant. (btw the friend of mine is in the aerospace industry, and is a trained spotter and navigator for missing aircraft searches)
    Range of the aircraft, with a full load of fuel was 9700km, cruising speed of 950km/hr, and required a runway of 8000' to take off fully loaded. Given those parameters we estimated that the aircraft typically can handle landing on shorter specs, than takeoff, especially once the majority of its fuel load is used up - so we estimated a minimum runway length of 5000' to land. Runway should be paved, but have minimal infrastructure, preferably configured with no traffic control, no tower managing ground based activities. Runway would need to have a flight path accessible to the ocean, with minimal radar coverage.

    The only country we could come up with was Somalia, because of its somewhat lawless state with minimal central govt. control. Yes we did find runways greater than 5000' length, paved, with no tower, no radar, though there were also no hangers to hide an aircraft of the 777 size. Interesting connection between China and Somalia is that Chinese companies are in contract with Somalia to rebuild some of its infrastructure. Is there any motive there? hmm.

    The above theory is debunked by the satellite coverage of the last handshake signals received. Imagine the hit our egos took when we read about that evidence, the periods of denial, oh it's been miserable having our speculation destroyed by facts. Damn..... is there a recovery group I could attend?

    Apparently it's not that hard to steal or hijack an aircraft ... It's been done several times prior to MH370. Especially easy when the flight crew is in on the hijacking ... Which has been done before also

    Maybe the deal for the flight crew was to fly the 777 to Iran and then lay low ... then they use a couple of chumps to fly the plane using the AFDS to the intended target area

    In WWII, the Japanese taught thousands of young men to take off and fly an aircraft... There were many of these same young men they didn't teach to land the aircraft

    We will all know soon enough

    DD>> got a great idea... with your billions in gold, think you could fund a Mythbusters episode, where we attempt to make a 777 disappear?

    The Liar In Chief says everytime there is a problem.

    It`s all Bush`s fault !!!!!!! Waa Waa Waa, the whole world knows Bo`Rock is a crybaby wuss, especially Putin.

    Bush has not been Prez for over 5 years but Bo`Rock says everything is all Bush`s fault......:rolleyes:

    Bo`Rock is a Liar straight from Hell.

    If you like your 777 jumbo jet you can keep it, if you want to land at your selected destination you can. NOT

    Bush is not President, Bo`Rock is, so it is going to be funny to hear Bo`Rock blame the missing plane on Bush.

    Im sure the Loony cheerleader squad has been working on a cheer over night, Rah Rah Rah, Gooo Team, LMAO.....

    The only thing the cheerleader squad proved was their idiocy.

    I didnt make post after post with you clowns because I care, I had a lot of spare time this weekend, so I had fun laughing at a few young punks on the internet. LOL

    Time to catch a plane. Cya

    Now the Malaysian officials are saying the ACARS info they have shows that MH370 continued its route to Beijing

    wow

    Nothing that large vanishes ... just hasn't been found yet

    There is no point to this topic ... very few facts to this investigation

    A bunch of smoke being blown
