* Still missing *Malaysian Airlines plane with 239 on board

It is News Limited. I'd wait until someone reputable reports it first.

More anonymous sources?

press conference with the Malaysian PM is getting thrown around

Makes you wonder now if ACA were onto something with the co-pilot inviting people into the cockpit.

Yep and that's why I think it's highly plausible that the pilots allowed female passengers into the cockpit of MH370 (just like they did with the Aussie chicks). The female passengers then somehow killed the pilots with their backs turned and finally taking control of the plane.

It's not very hard. Pilots notice attractive females and allow them into the cockpit thinking nothing of it. Just because you're hot does't mean you can't be a terrorist and that's where I think all has gone wrong in this case.

CNN yet to report it and usually they're fairly quick with their information.

Hijacked? Why? I mean.. That still leaves the possibility that passengers are alive. Families must be living in torture at the moment.

[BG32]

If it was Hijacked and the passengers are still alive, why no ransom demands? It seems odd unless the passengers aren't the thing they were after.

Not saying it hasn't been, just News is quick to publish anything and everything.

The Malaysian PM is, apparently, giving a presser this arvo.

Maybe they got what they wanted?

 

[Underdog]

But people in this thread have been saying that those suggesting it was hijacked are nutso, conspiracy theorists...

 

[monstabud]

maybe we need to track those two iranian passengers and see if they bought some boxcutters, like what happened on 9/11.

 

[Flameboy]

This is making less and less sense by the day...

Press Conference will be held at 4pm

[SHAKESPEARE]

The Age now running with this too along with the Associated Press.

what if they're after the plane. Or a group of passengers on the plane, say the 20 people from the Texas semiconductor company?

Not saying they're are, but you could hijack a plane fro a number of reasons. Not just to hold the people for ransom, which is the usual thing. You might want the cargo, which could be people. Or you might want the plane, or something on the plane. Or you might want to create a situation for whatever reason. Next steps are dependent on their objective and whether they did exactly what they intended to.

And even then, if hijack is the scenario, we're presupposing they reached their intended destination - they might not have. The plane might have been hijacked, by either a pilot(s) and or some third party, then, for whatever reasons crashed into the ocean, not fulfilling the 'mission'.

how so? it is making more and more sense everyday. Very hard to argue against a hijacking/piracy situation. Makes total sense.

India should be the focus now - what can their radars/info bring?

If they were its by coincidence / accident rather than great journalistic work.

And it's an unnamed official thats reportedly admitted to a hijacking so I'm not so quick to necessarily believe it even if it strangely seems the most plausible explanation given the complete lack of any debris after days of searching

I'm thinking no better than Malaysia

Gotta be China then.

I have a feeling we'll know more (a long shot I know) after the Malaysian PM speaks.
