You have to always consider alien abduction a possibility.

How is that "most likely"? To me, who has done exactly no research into this whatsoever and has barely followed the news, that actually seems like "most unlikely" unless you count alien abduction.

Seems most likely to me given the limited info we know. We know where the plane was when it dropped off radar. We know there was no may-day call, so it almost definitely was not a controlled crash that would leave the plane intact and no real debris field. We know that we haven't been able to find the homing beacon from the black box in the area despite days of searching. Either the plane came apart in a big way at that location, which should have spread floating debris over a wide area that we would have found by now, or the plane simply didn't go down in the water and was flown somewhere else. Between those two options, given the amount of resources that are looking for said debris, option #2 seems more likely as each hour passes without any debris found.
 
I mean, I'm not a physicist or whatever, but it seems way more likely to me something catastrophic happened to the plane, which crashed in the ocean, which is goddamn HUGE and they simply haven't located any wreckage yet. How is that not the most likely scenario? The idea that someone successfully hijacked a plane, flew it somewhere, landed it, and is....I don't know at that point, holding everyone for ransom? Medical testing? Sounds like the plot to Die Hard 7 or whatever number they're on.
 
So the hijackers decided to hijack the plane and then make no demands or try to take credit for said hijacking?

No. That didn't happen.



This was clearly the work of David Copperfield and now he is embarrassed that he can't bring the plane back from its disappearance. Much like a young magician tearing a volunteer's 20 dollar bill in half and then not being able to fix it. Rookie mistake, Copperfield. Rookie mistake.

And then there's this:
Malaysia Airlines live: military says last tracked plane hundreds of miles off course
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/wor...Malaysia-Airlines-MH370-plane-crash-live.html
12.07 Malaysia’s Berita Harian newspaper quoted air force chief Rodzali Daud as saying the missing plane was last detected by military radar at 2:40 a.m. on Saturday, near the island of Pulau Perak at the northern end of the Strait of Malacca.
The time given by Rodzali was an hour and 10 minutes after the plane vanished from air traffic control screens over Igari waypoint, midway between Malaysia and Vietnam.
11.07 "It changed course after Kota Bharu and took a lower altitude. It made it into the Malacca Strait," the military official, who has been briefed on investigations, told Reuters.

And this article, already discussed, about phone calls and missing relatives still signed into their social media accounts:

If the Malaysian military does have the plane moving west, far off it's natural path after it dropped of commercial radar, then why didn't they communicate with anyone? Maybe they had a complete electronic malfunction which didn't allow them to, but that is pretty much unheard of with this craft.

Malaysian authorities have previously said flight MH370 disappeared about an hour after it took off from Kuala Lumpur for the Chinese capital Beijing.

At the time it was roughly midway between Malaysia’s east coast town of Kota Bharu and the southern tip of Vietnam, flying at 35,000 ft.

“It changed course after Kota Bharu and took a lower altitude. It made it into the Malacca Strait,” the military official, who has been briefed on investigations, told Reuters.

The Strait of Malacca, one of the world’s busiest shipping channels, runs along Malaysia’s west coast.

Earlier on Tuesday, Malaysia’s Berita Harian newspaper quoted air force chief Rodzali Daud as saying the Malaysia Airlines plane was last detected by military radar at 2:40 a.m. on Saturday, near the island of Pulau Perak at the northern end of the Strait of Malacca. It was flying at a height of about 9,000 metres (29,500 ft), he was quoted as saying.
 
If the plane was abducted and flown below radar coverage, someone would have gotten a cell phone call off once cell service was readily available. I don't buy that.
 
has anyone asked lectro about any connections to the shroud or the shroud's power? fermilab?
 
between MH370, the hot hand, and the shroud of turin, some WACKY STUFF has been going on lately

Not if the plane was hijacked and cell phones were confiscated. Been done before. Plus I doubt the Malacca Strait has great cell coverage, even at 5,000 feet.

If I'm aware that the plane is getting hijacked I'd hide my phone in the seat. The can't search everything and they'll eventually hit service.

I'm sure there are places less likely to be searched. If you're Rev, this could mean trouble.

The idea of the plane being hijacked, all communication devices confiscated on a plane of 200+ people, and the plane diverted to some kind of hidden location like the Island of Dr Fucking Moreau for reasons unexplained with no ransom demands or notice or claims of responsibility is NUTS. No offense though. I dig it. If that's seriously what you think happened, I'm cool with that and it's good to know for future reference.
