You Will Not Find This Video on Fox in Any Search. It was posted on the 19th and summarily removed by Fox due to Pressure From White House.
Transcript: Tonight the Government of Malaysia is now reporting turning to Pakistan to help find the missing plane. That News comes as an intel group is claiming that a source within Boeing is claiming that this airplane is in Pakistan right now as we first reported Last night. The jet reportedly change course shortly after take off adding fuel to the hijacking theory, in other words they had made the change and programming it in at least prior to signing off from air traffic control without mentioning it.

Gen Tom McIernery;
As I understand a source within boeing reportedly told this group Rignet which is a bunch of retired cia types that Boeing according to this source believes the jet is in Pakistan, Boeing came out today out after you talked about what said on Fox new yesterday said we don’t have information, I want to get the denial, the Boeing company does not have the information to substantiate your claim

Meghan Kelly:Boeing now denies the missing plane is in Pakistan.

What are your thoughts?

**SNIP**

I did find out that the distance from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing and the distance between Kuala Lumpur and Lahore, Pakistan is the same distance. There's a whole of of information being withheld.

The problem with all land-based theories is cell towers that would have picked up the phones. Not to mention eye witnesses.

Yep -- fish don't talk.

I think that depressurization is the reason for the plane's disappearance. I think I read somewhere it was reported a few years ago that the 777s were developing cracks that could result in a loss of cabin pressure and the planes needed to be inspected for it. I think they all died of hypoxia, pilots included. Like Payne Stewart's Lear Jet, it finally ran out of fuel and fell from the sky. The question is where did it fall?

But the hijacking scenario is still interesting. I would think they would want the plane for ransom and not to use as a weapon, though.

It doesn’t sound like the General is very confident in what he is claiming.

-—So The General is turning up the heat and forcing these jackasses to do something.-—

I agree that could be possible. And I think it’s AT LEAST as likely the plane could’ve landed somewhere(for whatever reason) as it is the plane was ditched in the southern Indian Ocean.

But I’m also looking at the reports that the General is citing(the publicly available ones), here is part of the first report on the ‘possibility’ the plane landed in Pakistan, per the source McInerney keeps citing, LIGNET: http://www.lignet.com/InBriefs/Malaysia-Hunts-for-Missing-Jet-in-Pakistan-Israel-

Not exactly definitive.

Here is another story that the LIGNET report mentions from the UK Independent: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/missing-malaysia-airlines-flight-mh370-net-widens-as-pilots-passengers-engineers-and-crew-investigated-9195320.html

In addition to contributing almost zero information, the UK Independent story seems to be based entirely on the ‘possibility’ the plane overflew Pakistan strictly on where the upper channel of flight would’ve been when plotting the last 7-8 hours of satellite pings. The report seems to NOT have been made based on any definitive information the plane landed in Pakistan.

I’m not saying it didn’t land in Pakistan(or somewhere else). But relying on these reports seems thin. LIGNET does seem to have some serious people behind it, but they are all retired and hence still secondary sources. IF in fact McInerney does have other confidential sources who are confirming the Pakistan landing, then that’d be real news, but the publicly available LIGNET report and the UK Independent report that the General cites are next to worthless, IMO. The Boeing official could’ve said, ‘No comment,’ but instead issued an outright denial that they ‘had no information that substantiates that claim.’

So in essence as I see it, STILL no hard info, meaning the plane could STILL be just about anywhere at this point.

The only problem I have with accepting your explanation is that MH370 drastically changed its course 12 minutes before the pilot signed off with "goodnight" to the Malaysian ATC. Given that there was no sign of any distress at the times leading up to, during and for 12 minutes after the drastic and conscious change in its scheduled direction, the only logical deduction is that MH370's pilot(s) had "other plans" for the aircraft. The added fact that MH370's new course perfectly intercepted the Berlin-bound IL68 (also a Boeing 777) makes a strong case for MH370 having shadowed IL68 across the Asian mainland to its alternate destination.

LtGen McInerney is a very knowledgable authority, and I would not discount his experienced opinion.

If they went to this much trouble to steal the airliner, they’ll also keep the passengers alive as hostages.

Be prepared for the jet to show back up with them onboard, happy to be released, but a question if the jet is now an assymmetric WMD. With the passengers on board, there will be incentive not to shoot it down, but to allow it to fly somewhere with controlled security.

The General was on Hannity tonight sticking to his story and even confirming that he has sources who confirm the position in Pakistan - or was - probably moved since. This was today 3/21. So he is still out there sticking to his position. Not in hiding at all. I like that.

And the general won't be back on tv for a long time, if ever.

Strange, because he was on Hannity again tonight.

Yes, he was back on tonight making the same claims. He seems very serious and worried that whoever did this will get away with it.

I had heard about that IL68 flight. I wasn't sure that MH370 would have been able to catch up with IL68 because of their departure times (which I think were, like, 20 min apart) and they went in opposite directions. One went NE and the other NW. You say MH370 would have caught up? I'm not stuck on one theory. I think one theory is as good as the other considering the information we have right now.

It reminds me of Payne Stewart because communications between the pilot and ground seemed normal. Then the plane took a right turn and there was no response from the plane after that. But then, how did the transponders get turned off on MH370? That had to be deliberate or a system failure of some kind. We're just not going to know until we know, and we may never know...

Tho thoughts on that, one from personal experience.

First, commercial aircraft don’t fly at maximum speed but at a lower “cruising” speed in order to both save fuel and leave some ability to speed up if bucking headwinds so they can still arrive on schedule.

In my own experience which doesn’t completely apply in this case on a return flight from New York to Chicago our pilot diverted (with permission I suppose) from his regular flight plan and flew well north of his original flight plan to catch an unusual effect of the jet stream which allowed us to arrive in Chicago almost a half hour earlier than originally scheduled.

How do I know that? The pilot announced to the passengers what he was doing and why before he did it.

I’m not typically a tinfoil hat guy, but this debris near Australia doesn’t smell kosher to me. I also expect they will deliver debris to that site, maybe with a bow on top.
