So the ACARS is turned off, then the plane makes a drastic turn west and the plane’s transponder is turned off at almost the exact same time the pilot(or copilot) confirms he’s alive and well in the cockpit. It changes altitude, and eventually flies low in an apparent attempt to avoid radar. Then turns northwest and hits three separate waypoints north of Indonesia. Waypoints that were consistent with flight paths toward Europe, the middle east, and central asia(Kazakhstan).

Now they want me to believe as soon as the plane dropped off military radar somewhere northwest of Indonesia, it then turned almost due south and flew until it ran out of fuel.

I don’t know what to make of this whole story anymore. At this point I’m resigned to the fact we are all at the mercy of what the governments involved want us to know.

BREAKING NEWS British satellite company Inmarsat tells the BBC there were very strong indications 10 days ago that the plane would be found either in the southern part of the Indian Ocean or in Central Asia, and not in the South China Sea or the Malacca Straits where Malaysian authorities continued to search.

Malaysia has been criticised by British satellite company Inmarsat for the way it has handled the search operation.

The firm said that it had information 10 days ago that the plane had flown for at least another seven hours.

Speaking to the BBC, the company also said it knew on March 11 that the plane was likely to be in the southern Indian Ocean or central Asia, not the Malacca Strait or South China Sea.

Inmarsat has spoken out because of its fears that the search had been handled badly.
