I don’t believe I’ve read prior anywhere what I’m about to write. If it’s a dupe, so be it:
What if the Captain pulled an ‘Egypt-Air’ “Alla-hackbar”, and the Malay government & the US are keeping it from the public (for obvious reasons)? Without regard to how it supposedly got so far down south (a suicide wouldn’t have flown so far).
Again, just throwing it out there. Occurred to me a week ago, but I haven’t cared about this much until they started pulling more ‘geek’ to locate a crash zone and then leapt upon that to declare it crashed with no wreckage.
“(a suicide wouldn’t have flown so far).”
He might have if he wanted the plane to just disappear and be a mystery. If this turns out to be the case, the only thing that apparently ruined it was the pinger on the engines.
