What if this is an epic viral marketing stunt? What are they selling?

It's always sex, isn't it?

Lots of jokes about Lost, but this is what the "real world" reaction would've been like outside of the island. Crazy.

but widmore planted a fake plane crash.

That's right, I forgot.

If it is, it's way better than couples kissing for the first time.

also, what about reports from some family members saying that social media apps were still showing missing family members logged on? like on facebook if you are logged into it on your cell and that little cell thing shows up if someone is looking at their active friends list type of stuff? you guys!  :runaway:

News radio in KC, a few days ago, had some cell company guy on a call.  He said that the news was saying that relatives were calling passengers' cells and that they all rang as normal(no one picked up) but that if the plane was in water or out of tower service, they wouldn't ring, they would give some out of network message or go directly to VM.

Anyone confirm?

Friends dad is an Avionics Engineer that consults on refurbishing foreign based planes to meet U.S. FAA standards.

He too said that it's very improbable that there's not anything found floating in the water if the plane did indeed crash or have a high altitude mishap.  He said a plane of that size impacting water fully intact would have to be a Sully in the Hudson type of event.

Straight to VM typically means that a device is not receiving signals.   I'm more of a landline/fiber in the ground guy, but I believe Wireless Networks, if they don't find a device available on the network go straight to VM.

The plane obviously flew through a wormhole in the spacetime continuum.  Probably land in Beijing in about 2041.

Whatever they are re-purposing this thing for is of no matter.  The US has sent a destroyer into the general vicinity they assume it could have landed.  The minute this thing clears 5,000 feet it's going to be lit up like a Christmas tree.  (If it hasn't been already)

Just an arbitrary number I threw out there.

It could have landed safely in the ocean (Sully style), but then before anyone could get out a giant squid swam up and pulled it under.

One of my colleagues is former air force (20 years). he is of the belief that if this plane was diverted, transponders inactivated, etc... that it's likely one of the pilots had to have been involved in the caper.

I think so too.  1 of the pilots had a high-tech flight simulator in his home
