Malaysia Airlines

[Dugout DickStone]

So how shitty is this blackbox/transponder thing that is supposed to be sending out a signal?

a million dollar idea is to make one that sends out an only slightly pud signal instead of the current model that sends out an extremely pud signal you have to be basically holding your ear right up next to it to hear. then every year or two you make a new one that has a somewhat less pud signal and make all the airlines upgrade again.

Welp, close this work ticket and meet me over at Ruby Tuesdays

can anyone prove to me that this plane ever actually existed?
 
could this plane's existence be the hoax?

I'm starting to buy in to the plane being flown at low altitude to a secret location for unknown reasons theory.

I will analyze google maps to tell you guys where the plane is.

Probably a government of a country adjacent to the altered flight path is involved.

you guys think the pilots could be in on this?

Heard someone discussing this theory yesterday.  Would be scary as eff knowing they could load it up with nuclear weapons or something

seriously, if it had crashed/exploded a debris field would have been located by now. this plane has been stolen and is being hidden.

i'm txting jesse ventura about this

a fully loaded 777 would need at least 5800 ft of runway for a safe landing. i am narrowing my search to all uninhabited islands in the region at least 6000 ft long

think you should go the other way. a "safe landing" is probably way over what a good pilot would need. if youre gonna figure this thing out puni, you need to think like a t-rist (don't use full words)

There was a really good episode of Airwolf (nm, every episode is really good) where a plane was hijacked and crashed into the ocean but it stayed together and sank to the bottom so the terrorists were still able to hold the passengers for ransom.  That plane was a 747 so Boeing has a documented history of making large planes that can survive water landings intact.

Holy crap, I remember a scene in a show/movie when I was a kid of an airliner being sunk and scuba divers being outside it and passengers inside freaking out.  Is that the same Airwolf episode?

I so wish I could see that pic.

Google Earth getting calls, reminding people they're not real time.   

If you think about it, the region has a number of potential landing areas, the issue becomes are they over grown by now, or developed to the point that it would be hard to sneak a plane in there the size of a 777.

The plane is obviously a transformer and transformed.

I remember that movie, a good one.  Didn't they have to decide if they should retroactively partake in the Battle of Midway or something?

[michigancat]

wait, google earth has a phone number?

[sonofdaxjones]

Google does Captain Anal. 

Okay, some people were apparently calling news outlets telling them they found the plane on Google Earth.   Google told the news outlets that Google Earth is not real time, and I will presume one of the methods used in this explanation process was a phone of some sort.

yes, thats the one

I'm going with everyone on the plane was lazy and the plane landed in the past Langoliers style.

Google does Captain Anal. 

Ironically, it's kind of hard to find.

I am ready to accuse Myanmar. They have an extremely sketchy government and control adjacent airspace. Once the plane is out of range of the malaysian radar, all Myanmar has to do is lie about the rest.

Probably.  I searched my memory banks for crappy 80's TV shows with this plotline and Airwolf was the only one that matched.  Or you may have been watching Airport '77
