    Kidnapping or defection. Book it.

    Simple. The pilot went and took a crap. With no one at the wheel, the plane dove into the water nose first and left no trail.

    If a big plane can dive into the Pentagon and leave a little 10-foot wide hole with no crumbled remains, and no chemical residue of fuel, while the Pentagon won't release parking lot video 13 years later, then...my theory is the truth.

    U.S. officials have an “indication” the missing Malaysia Airlines jetliner may have crashed in the Indian Ocean and is moving the USS Kidd to the area to begin searching. Plane flew for 4 hours after disappearing; Rolls Royce & Boeing are obliged to divulge info to US Govt only.

    At this point, I will be surprise to find out the plane has crashed. I feel pretty sure some one took it some where for a purpose yet to be discovered.

    The plane could have flown in any direction for up to 5 hours after the transponder was turned off. It looks like they can't triangulate it's position from the pings, but maybe they got a general direction or hint from the order that satellites saw the pings, or the signal strength.

    Here's a conspiracy theory...

    Freescale makes semiconductors (and CPUs) for military, civilian, and space purposes.

    Incorrect. There are two directions it could not have flown for 5 hours: up, or down.

    We have an indication the plane went down in the Indian Ocean," the senior official said.
    The official initially said there were indications that the plane flew four or five hours after disappearing from radar and that they believe it went into the water. Officials later said the plane likely did not fly four or five hours, but did not specify how long it may have been airborne.
    White House spokesman Jay Carney said, “It's my understanding that based on some new information that's not necessarily conclusive, but new information, an additional search area may be opened in the Indian Ocean

    Wonder how long it will take to break the code here?

    Let's see now, it was a long range Air Craft, loaded with enough fuel to get to Beijing. So I presume they (who ever took the plane) wanted to go that far.
    Another clue they wanted to go that far is there isn't any where close that wouldn't be found out immediately. Flying over Bangladesh Nepal in to eastern China or
    one of those Stan places close to there is the only place it could have gone unreported.

    The question remaining is what the hell is next on their agenda?

    I said this on monday. my theory is that the plane was hijacked and taken somewhere remote for a future action (not sure what). They probably killed everyone on board too.

    THAT is a scary thought, and as likely as anything else at this point.

    It is really quite simple. Think of how many radical groups or rogue countries that are in that sphere of influence. How many would have access to nukes, and not have a reliable delivery system? North Korea for one, another would be the muslims in eastern Russia that are raising hell. how to get it there..hmm you would have to refuel in a sympathetic area..lots of muslim radicals in SE Asia..why hijack a plane now? Have to think that there is an up coming world attention event that is being targeted..a couple come to mind if it is eastern european bad guys, could it be the up coming G8 meetings? If its North Korea..I have no idea, that guy is off the charts crazy. Lets see, what else catches world attention..ahh, yes..world cup soccer...what would a nuke do in that mix?

    Seems to me a big plane like that would show up on radar long before it could reach some target location like a sports arena.

    With a nuke, I dont think you need to get too close..It would be pretty easy to stay under radar, or mix in with the traffic in a high density air space..transponder off..fake a distress..I dont know..if you are well enough planed out to snag an airplane, I have to think the rest of the plan is as well thought out..fk, the Chinese are beginning to have trouble with muslims..how easy would it be to fly a nuke over Beijing ?
