10 years on and Malaysian Flight 370 still has to be solved

[Londoner]

There is no doubt this flight was hijacked and there was a ship or submarine was waiting for it at the place where landed or crashed in the sea. So either the hijackers and the target, which they were after, came down by parachute to be picked up by the waiting submarine/ship or when the plane crashed to the sea every one picked up by the waiting submarine or ship. This must be the true story.

The recent facts we have been given about nothing been shown on satellite for all those days - then suddenly wreckage appeared - that was extremely difficult to believe

I also know that if the powers that be do not want the general public to know something - there is little chance of us finding out

My best guess was a hijacking that went wrong - America or someone refused to pay so hostages were disposed of - or they were accidentally shot down over Chinese airspace and there is a cover-up

What do we really know?

Someone turned off communications from within the cockpit

The plane few for several hours

All governments deny having any contact within their air space

I think anything is possible

All that I know for certain is that will modern technology that plane most definitely did NOT vanish

Why was NOTHING seen between 8 March and 23 March?

Flight MH370: plane crashed in 'apparent suicide mission'

25 March

INVESTIGATORS believe the missing Malaysia Airlines plane crashed into the sea in an apparent suicide mission, according to inside sources.

Malaysian officials yesterday confirmed that Flight MH370 had crashed into the southern Indian Ocean with no survivors. An official source has since told the Daily Telegraph that investigators believe it was "a deliberate act by someone on board who had to have had the detailed knowledge to do what was done".

An analysis of the flight's routing, signalling and communications shows that it was flown "in a rational way". Investigators do not believe a malfunction or fire was capable of causing the aircraft to disable its communication system and veer wildly off course on a seven-hour flight into the sea.

After re-reading many of the reports I have the only possible answer - as Sherlock Holmes was want to say:

"When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."

The plane crashed in Father Christmas while he was having a ride on his sledge

What is strange is that pilots did not send a message to inform of their 'suicide mission'. When terrorist group are acting, they are looking for media attention.

The problem with your theory is that you can not land boeing 777 on a ship or a submarine . It is certainly hijacked and it was most probably remotely controlled and landed in a designated destination . Only US and Israel have the Boeing 777 technology and I expect them to be behind it . As to their motive , it remain a mystery .

Malysian government and several other countries including china know much more than what they are saying .It is a game for the big boys , because it is almost impossible to make a plane of this size to completely disappear without a trace .

Why Israel or USA would have done a such thing ? Generally they are the targets of terrorism, not the actors (they have other ways to harm their foes).

like i said , the motive is unknown (the cargo and passengers are the key ) . One thing for sure is that the hijacking is not done by your typical terrorist organization wanting attention or money .There are very few countries in the world that have such capabilities and US/Israel are at the top of the list .

Narrative:
A taxiing Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 passenger plane (9M-MRO), flight MH389, contaced the tail of a China Eastern Airlines A340 plane, B-6050, waiting on the taxiway at Pudong International Airport.No one was injured.

The tip of the wing of the Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 was broken off and hung on the tail of the China Eastern Airbus 340-600, according to pictures posted by passengers on the Internet.

The very same plane went missing on March 8, 2014 while on a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing,

I wonder if some of the damage incurred at that time were to blame for the latest disaster

I am reading through posts on the Airliners forum - thousands of post - suggest other people read the very informative and knowledgeable comments as well

It could take DAYS for me to reach the end of the posts

I went to the end of one section of posts:

We do not know that for a fact and we should try to stay as positive as we can. I know some aviation enthusiasts who refuse to believe it is down until they actually find parts of a plane. Until then, to them, the plane could be on an island somewhere where all the people are alive.

That's exactly why you would make an announcement like they did yesterday.
Because that's a false hope.
There are many planes that crashed without any wreckage ever being found; let's be realistic: they didn't all land on some island with all or even some of the people still alive, but unable to contact anybody for years or even decades.

We have a plane that went missing over two weeks ago, with no sign from anybody on board since. We know it flew on for about 7 hours after it went drastically off course. We also now know - given the analysis from Inmarsat and the AAIB - that it flew along the "South corridor", which means its last position, with fuel for about 30-60 minutes of flight left, was about two hours' flight away from any land to even crash-land a 777.

Based on this, announcing that the plane was lost with all lives on board means we can finally start accepting this tragic loss of life.
There's still plenty left to do in finding the wreckage and determining what exactly happened that led to this disaster.

Quoting Pellegrine (Reply 253):
Horribly insulting. They probably know that for a family to retain a lawyer is going to be in the $3-5,000+ range, just to start. There's going to be a few lawyers looking on contingency at this.

I wouldn't accept anything less than $10 million USD in a negligence fatality lawsuit.

Without going into what sum you put against a life, you're making some bold statements here, considering that no negligence (let alone gross negligence) has been proven against anybody so far, as we don't even know what exactly happened.

One of item seen by satellite has now been identified as a whale carcass

If it would have been a hijacking and the rapt of 200 hostages, I think the gang would have already claimed it and asked something.
