Very sad event this and to date not much info , what we do know is that there were 2 passengers with fake passports on the plane , no contact or mayday call from pilot , the plane has just vanished so I hope we get more news when daylight breaks . I flew with Malaysian airlines in june to kuala lumpur and then to Manila , near enough same route , my sister work for them for 30 years before she retired . only the 3rd crash in the airlines history and I was is school near where the 1st crash the airline had took place in 1977 , I think foul play is involved somehow ........................:eek:

Very sad when any plane crashes with a loss of life. Seems a rather bizarre incident with no contact or mayday. Hope more news comes out. How do they know two passengers had fake passports and if so how did they get on?
 
Very sad situation. Some of the info coming out, like the fake passports can barely be believed.

Fingers crossed everyone is found safe and well but its not looking good.

BBC reporting that the passports were reported stolen in Thailand, which possibly concerns me more than if they were fake.
 
Still no news and they saying there were up to 4 fake passports , well off to golf now and will check in later................

They have said the planes transponder could have been turned off and the plane diverted on another route by hijackers and then blown up , hence not in the area they are looking , but its very strange indeed , no ones even claimed they done it , its very sad for the families just waiting for news and praying its good news when deep down they fear the worst .........................:mmm:

Some say it could have been abducted by Aliens/UFO , I must say as crazy as that sounds it would explain it.

Sad to say it will have gone down, it's a vast area and radar only follows roughly 250miles out- I find it surprising there has been no wreckage as to go down without a mayday would indicate no time so probably violent as opposed to trying a soft landing (captain is a vet pilot) therefore some wreckage would have broken off.

The flight recorders emit a signal roughly 5-10 miles so eventually a sub or boat will 'hear' it if the search pattern is precise.

Sad situation and a nightmare for all the families.

I was born over in Kuala Lumpur , left when I was 17 , if they still do things over there like they use to which is in a quiet manner with no press coverage then the plane could have been hijacked and has landed and they are dealing with the kidnappers demands and until everyone is safe and they are just buying time for now , its a long shot I know but if it is then people will could still be safe , otherwise they have a very large area to search ................its just very sad as my sister worked for them for 30 years and knows members of the flight crew . she still lives in KL

I think you could be right but China are demanding answers there seems to be no info or is this misinformation to buy time I hope so. Sad day .
 
It is a strange one... I flew MAS a few times when I was working in KL for a year. Also remember flying their inaugural flight connecting KL to Mumbai, Got a little earthen-pewter memento that must be knocking about somewhere. Decent airlines that was always in the shadow of the bigger cousin Singapore Airlines next door.

Unfortunately, not the first time such a thing has happened. The Air France from Brazil was lost for a few days before the debris floated upto the surface. Nat geo did a chilling Air investigation... http://youtu.be/ZHduB-knlt0
 
I have to say there is something not right about all of this.... its bizarre that a plane with all the modern day coms and tracking devices has just disappeared without trace and now the agencies are actually looking in a completely different location than it was travelling on with no proper explanation.... :confused: Something is going on here and although I'm not always into conspiracy theories this does now suggest people are not giving up enough information that the families deserve. :( Taking the emotion out of this, it is very interesting news for a change.
 
There is a little part of me that doesn't want them to find the plane, and then it suddenly lands in a weeks time with all the passengers acting perfectly normally!!

Not entirely sure they'll find the jet, but it is strange how there is no debris etc whatsoever!

Not really strange... the plane cud be intact as it goes underwater. Though high pressure would break it eventually. The Air France plane debries did not surface for about 5 days. Having said that, this one is getting strange by the hour.
