deliberately hid the plane from radar and flew it thousands of miles off course, before it came down in the ocean.
He says the clues are in the route it took after it vanished from air traffic control. It turned back on itself and flew along the border of Malaysia and Thailand.
"It flew in and out of the countries eight times," he says. "This is probably very accurate flying rather than just a coincidence. As both air traffic controllers in both those countries would probably assume that the aircraft was in the other country's jurisdiction and not pay it any attention."
Without actually knowing what went on in that cockpit, the flying as noted above is puzzling at best and suspicious at worst.
I like to look for innocuous/innocent explanations while some prefer to jump right to conspiracy with little or no evidence of provocation. But so much about this particular incident seems to rule out any and all positive explanations (if you can say there are any) of the disappearance.
As to murder-suicide, why not just crash the plane immediately, why the u-turn, why the bobbing and weaving? Why disable the IFF?
Did the plane have post Sept. 11 security?
I tuned out a lot of this because of the rampant speculation at the time, so I'm admittedly pretty clueless as to the facts of the loss.
