Flight MH370 disaster - new theory (asphyxia - air problems)

However, if they didn't do it during production of the DVDs, I probably would have done it with the remote's zoom button. I hate watching 4x3 programs on the wide screen TV. The really sad part is that JMS and Netter did all the SFX in the bigger aspect ratio and then WB either lost the files or recorded over them, depending on who you talked to. How did you get a cynical to survive in captivity? I heard they're hard as hell to keep alive. (-: And you call yourself a journalist.

The really sad part is that JMS and Netter did all the SFX in the bigger aspect ratio and then WB either lost the files or recorded over them, depending on who you talked to. Yes, I've been reading about that and noticed, among other things that quite a few issues are in dispute including cast changes/trap doors, plot lines and "who struck John." I'm using the IMDB to figure out "where are they now?" and trying to avoid spoilers. I remember a lot, but not enough to want to know surprises ahead of time. It's engaging. I really like zapping through a dozen or so episodes when I am zapped out. I have to admit to using 2X speed on some stuff. JMS does his share of speechifying. (-: I always liked the Vorlons. They were a refreshing change from the "always humanoid" aliens of the Star Trek franchise. Of course, the award in the odd-looking aliens category goes to Farscape and Jim Hensons puppets. But I still like the Vorlons the best because their "skin" looked like the burled walnut dash of the Jaguar I restored in college. Remember when there was the time and energy to look at a beat up old humpty and see in your mind what it would look like after being restored. And then to actually do it? I think I tapped my last can of Bondo a long, long time ago. So long, in fact, it astonishes me. Time sure flies. And you call yourself a journalist. Cynicism is a job requirement (grin). Ex-journo - the difference is like being an alcoholic and being in recovery. My neighbor is worried that her five year old grandson is going to be a destructive menace because he takes everything apart. I told her that's actually a good thing if he's trying to see how things work and not just how they break. A lot of successful people were taking things apart at a very early age. I can't remember the first thing I tried to "fix" when I was a kid. Hmmm. That's the kind of thing that you can't recall on demand but that will show up a day from now when I am looking at something and realize it was a clock or a radio that I did exploratory surgery on. -- Bobby G. |

wrote: wrote in message stuff snipped While the level of expertise seems too much for the Chinese Muslim separatists to execute, there are helpful intelligence services all over the world that would train them just to make the Chinese go through hell. Russians, Syrians, Iranians, etc. If the pilot or co pilot were involved, getting any information about that plane would be fairly trivial, the book is probably ON the plane. Agreed. Certainly Shah, the pilot with the huge simulator, appears to have been able to easily acquire that data. I wonder if MS Flight Simulator teaches users how to disable the transponder. Some of those simulators are notoriously accurate. If they were planning this for a while it would make sense that they found out what they needed to know and touched each one of those breakers at least once before they started so they could do this fairly quickly. I'd say it was pretty well planned since they obviously got away with it - to some extent. Whether the plane was landing in one of over 600 places that could handle such a plan remains to be seen. As we've both postulated before, it may be rammed into silt, sand and mud after a vertical flight into the ocean. I had another thought about this. China may have tracked that plane from the git go, followed it to it's final resting place and either shot it down or just dropped a bag over the hijackers when they landed it. If this was really a political act, covering it up is more like China than going on CNN and bragging about catching them. I think that after years of suppressing the Muslim Uighurs in their outlying districts that the Uighurs, possibly with a little help from a state actor like Iran or Syria, took the plane. The fact that these two pilots published photos of themselve frolicking in the cabin with teenage girls alarms me. A terrorist would seize on that sort of information to trick those pilots into opening the cabin for some very bad girls. The guys would be tortured for information and then just "disappeared" Well, that's always been an option for China. If they really wanted to cover this up they would sprinkle a few bodies and some floating artifacts somewhere in the South Indian Ocean to be "found" later. I wonder if we'll ever know. The secrets of this hijacking/diversion/whatever may have died with the crew and passengers if they ditched in the Indian Ocean. There's a possibility that the jog south was just a false lead and that when they were well out of ground radar range, they set course for their true destination. -- Bobby G. |

Flight MH370 disaster - Some thoughts about telemetry, hijacking

"Robert Green" wrote: Merely parroting it. So instead of actually trying to find out what is happening they are just grabbing onto whatever flotsam and jetsam wonders by as if it was actually news? And this is news to you? (-: My J-prof said that news comes from person A trying to harm person B through a journalist. It turned out for things like Watergate, he was right. Mark Felt disliked Nixon for getting passed over to head the FBI, hence he became Deep Throat. At least Mark Felt had actual information and W&B took sometime to look for backup material to corroborate. This seems to be just putting stuff for the same of putting stuff out. There is no apparent vetting of most of this which leads to all these whackadoodle theories. This happened a long, long time ago. Now news programs find two people to argue each side of an issue, unconcerned that one of them might be criminally insane. "Let the reader/viewer sort it out." The only piece of journalism that *wasn't* like that was the NYT series on Benghazi. They sent a fairly large team of reporters and researchers there as well as using local sources. They talked to everyone that might have a connection to what happened there. They're one of the only news organizations left that have those kinds of resources. What's left is now millions of connected "eyes" on the net feeding into Google which reporters use to research their topics which leads to the flotsam phenom you've noticed. As the data from RadarFlight (or is it FlightRadar?) 24 is a perfect example of the new news gathering and it's got its pluses and minuses, like anything else. The law of unintended consequences is quite a powerful one. I am not sure that this really rises to that level. In regards to a locked cabin door preventing the passengers from overwhelming the hijackers instead of keeping the hijackers out? No. At least to my mind you can't invoke law of unintendened consequences without a line of similar occurrence (my fave discussion of tax policy for instance). In this case it appears to be a one off that is specific to this happenstance (of course assuming it actually happened this way of which there is little or no real evidence just bloviation on an international scale. This is what humans do and have always done when faced with a situation that defies rational explanation. In the long run, I don't see much good coming out of the passengers taking over the cockpit. It would probably cause the plane to crash sooner. Don't have to be scared as long... Some wag elsewhere said the reason there's no video in the cabin or the cockpit is that no one would ever fly again if they saw a *really* bad airplane crash in vivid HD. Apparently it's often (but not always) pandemonium. You must have experienced the contagion of the screaming crazies in one of your career tracks. Once someone goes into full blown panic, it typically lights up at least a few more. I still think that is much more related to what is orders of magnitude more likely to happen. This is a random occurance. I think this is anything but random. Latest working theory: China wants to "pacify" their Muslim extremists and what better way than to whip up a fury about a suicidal Muslim pilot killing a plane load of innocent Chinese people. This is the kind of operation spooks love. Very few but highly trained people are involved, little chance of compromise, plausible deniability and if push comes to shove, the bosses can always assassinate the actors. How do you say "Jack Ruby" in Mandarin? How do you say more unsubstantiated BS. Because it bothers you so much! (-: I don't understand why, this is just how things play out. Look at all the supposition that came about after the Challenger disaster, the OK city bombing, etc. When people have incomplete information on a newsworthy subject they resort to "what if" scenarios. Perhaps it's not classic textbook journalism (which I think no longer exists) but it does give people (and the authorities) lines of inquiry to follow. It doesn't upset me too much until you get to the "Israel was behind the 9/11 crashes" sort of BS. Geez Louise we can't leave any fanciful theory unturned? It's why we have think tanks - sometimes it's "out of the box" that leads to the answer. Do you know how long it took the Navy to figure out the Thresher didn't sink because of bad welds but a very unusual problem where the ballast tank valves froze shut? A *very* long time. They fixed on a cause and tried very hard to bend all the fact to fit their preordained conclusion. That's at least as bad as examining fanciful theories and maybe even quite a bit worse. This is just getting sadder. Certainly for the families. CNN said it was a "tortuous" experience for them (in an early version of an article). Someone must have pointed out they meant "torturous" because it was fixed in subsequent articles. I wonder what today's newest theory is - my wife is saying it's that the hijackers were ability to cyberjack the plane's controls through the wifi and entertainment network not having a strong enough firewall.

If Shah put the simulator to any use as part of the hijacking, it wouldn't have involved stuff like how to turn off the transponder - because turning on or off the transponder is routinely done by pilots and they know where those switches are. What Shah would have done is practice landing the plane at a particular remote airstrip in VFR conditions. I would be looking at his simulator to see if he manually added an airstrip to the simulator's stock or built-in list of airfields. Did he create a new airfield, input the parameters (type of surface, length and width, height above sea level) and maybe some topo features, surrounding buildings, antenna's, etc. And as I mentioned in the other post - What was the complete list of cargo being carried on that flight? Or, to ask that question another way - How much gold was central bank of China buying that week? |

It would also be in the manuals that are carried in their flight bags (or flight iPads depending on the airline. No doubt. But I've read that disabling the ACARS (incompletely, it turns out) takes a lot more knowledge and access to an electronics bay. I'm bowing out all this supposition because of this article: http://www.wired.com/autopia/2014/03...ectrical-fire/ For me, the loss of transponders and communications makes perfect sense in a fire. And there most likely was an electrical fire. In the case of a fire, the first response is to pull the main busses and restore circuits one by one until you have isolated the bad one. If they pulled the busses, the plane would go silent. It probably was a serious event and the flight crew was occupied with controlling the plane and trying to fight the fire. Aviate, navigate, and lastly, communicate is the mantra in such situations. I feel a little guilty at how many people are ready to turn a pilot who apparently is a community minded guy who does home repair(!!!!!) videos into a sucidal monster and a mass-murderer. For karmic reasons, I am preferring to believe that he did everything humanly possible to get the aircraft to a safe landing zone and failed. I think that after years of suppressing the Muslim Uighurs in their outlying districts that the Uighurs, possibly with a little help from a state actor like Iran or Syria, took the plane.

If they have the flight path right, this dies not fit the facts. That, of course, is a big if. I wonder if they were even *watching* the radar. After a big disaster like this, lots of people in the "chain of events" go into pure "cover your ass" mode. Why would they head out into the Indian Ocean if they were looking for a place to land? Because they overshot the landing strip they were heading for. That might be due to incapacity of the crew, the controls or both. It fits more of the facts than any of the other theories presented, doesn't turn a 18,000 hour pilot into a mass-murderer and is consistent with the plane flying off into the sunset. Why would a hijacker do that? It smacks of a plane without human control of any kind. It also explains the brief excursion to 45K feet and then the reduction of altitude to a (barely) breathable height. -- Bobby G. |

Flight MH370 disaster - Some thoughts about telemetry, hijacking

There has been so much misinformation and crazy speculation. But it's not just limited to the uninformed. There is a 777 pilot who's also an aviation magazine columnist who's been all over TV sticking to his theory that it could have been a fire that explains it. A fire? Really? Sure, we all know that fires have brought down airliners before. But for a fire to have been the cause of this, you'd have to believe it was a very magical fire from the start. Everything was perfectly normal until just a few minutes before all ATC contact was lost. So, you'd have to believe that a fire somehow resulted in losing the transponders and voice communication at the same time, without any ability to issue even a short mayday. And curiously, that occurs at precisely the point where the plane is handed off from Malaysian ATC to Vietnam ATC, over water, near the limit of radar, ie the perfect spot to pull a planned disappearance. Then he says they made that left turn to head to an airport on the other coast of Malaysia with a 13,000 ft runway? Other pilots have pointed out that there were other runways that they would have passed by, plenty long enough to land the 777, to fly 140 miles farther. Who would do that with a plane on fire? And then we have radar images of it at the Straits, performing a zig-zag to waypoints, ending with it perfectly aligned to the flight paths toward India. That sounds like a fire? And then said fire, which was so bad that it incapacitated the crew, killed key communication systems, etc, left the plane capable of flying on it's own for 6 more hours, including obviously changing course yet again from the course it was on when military radar contact was lost? So, I think you have more than just random people making wild speculation. You have opinions from experts that don't conform to logic from the existing facts. |

It took 2 years, but they did it. They had a very good idea where the Air France jet was. We still do not even have a real clue where 370 went down. They are chasing satellite pictures of junk in the water a couple weeks after the plane was lost and we are not even sure it is the right junk. Yes, I agree they had a much better idea of the location in that case. But what I was responding to was the assertion that if they don't find the wreckage before the black box pingers stop, they will never find it. If they figure out where it likely is, they could still recover black boxes, wreckage, etc long after the pingers stop, just like Air France. And the pingers are of limited value in this case, as they aren't likely to reveal the location, unless by some miracle they get really lucky. I'm not even sure what assets they have listening for the pings. Clearly most of the assets are visual, the search planes in particular. I bet, if they ever find this plane, it will be by accident while looking for something else decades from now. ... unless it does turn up wadded up against a mountain or the desert in South Asia I think there is still a reasonable probability that they will find debris doing the search. But I agree it's also possible that someone will just come across something floating or washed up on a beach somewhere. Even that, if it happend months from now, would be a major step. We'd at least know for sure which general area it went down in and that it's not being outfitted with bombs in Pakistan. |

If you don't believe me, so be it. That's real definitive. The pingers have typically not been involved with finding the crash site, only in helping find the black boxes after you know where the crash site is. Again, they only transmit 2 miles under water. The water in the search ares is 2 miles deep. You'd have to be right on top of it and the chances of doing that with the limited number of vessels that move at 20 MPH, in the huge area is slim to none. The Air France case isn't different in the aspect you're talking about. They didn't find the wreckage from the pingers and the pingers were long dead when they finally found the wreckage and the black boxes 2 years later. There is no reason that the same thing couldn't happen here, if they find floating wreckage tomorrow and start working backwards. If they never have a good idea of where the wreckage is, then I agree, they may never find it, but the pingers going dead isn't the determining factor that makes it impossible, as proved by Air France. |

IMO, it's unlikely an aircraft failure, so finding out what happened is likely to vindicate them. But if it is an airplane defect then the same thing could happen to other 777's. One plane they can survive. But if you have a couple more go down, they could have the whole company at risk. |

The problem with conventional airplane accident investigation is that it presumes that there was no intent to crash the plane.
In this case, that presumption might not be a reasonable one. |

People just don't realize the incredible amount of area that has to be searched, often just by bored people with binoculars looking through the glare of an airplane cabin window. A lot of the surrounding detritus that marks the typical ocean crash site was dispersed by winds and waves for almost a week before they got the area right. This wreckage might not ever get found because there's so much unrelated junk in the water and because the Indian Ocean is so remote. The planes spend most of their time and fuel getting to the search area and then have to turn back after a few hours. -- Bobby G. |
