Yeah I caught that earlier, I wonder if they will ever be found.

Shocking that in 2015 we can lose a plane still. In 2009 it took a couple of years to find a french air bus that went missing.
From what I've been reading the Maylaysians have been a little all over the place with their attempts to find it and change thier straedgy on a whim.

Rather mysterious. Must be so hard on friends and families of the missing, can´t imagine!

The sea has a habit of throwing stuff up on shores, but nothing has been found on shore or off shore.

I do not believe the suicide theory and that the pilot took one last look at his place of birth Penang.

They say the plane did a u turn and flew for almost 7 hours undetected south west of Australia until it ran out of fuel.  If this be the case then why were there no messages from mobiles???

Other than a hand shake what other evidence is there to support this?

In the 2009 incident they found debris floating on the surface in more or less within a few days.

in this case no trace what so ever

It done more than just a U turn it done some more other strange moves.  The most likely scenario is pilot suicide, very selfish and stupid

I don't believe it was pilot suicide at all. If he wanted to commit suicide with a passenger full of people he would have done it as he approached Vietnam.  Why program the plane to continue flying till it ran out of fuel? Why not just ditch it in the jungle?

At the end of the day we don't know what happened and I guess we will never know.  We don't even have any evidence to support the fact it went down in the ocean?


Its a mystery David isn't it?

Its likely pilot suicide - if so he would have flown it into a deep remote part of the sea so hopefully for him no one will find out or recover the black boxes.

If he had rendered everyone to sleep with the lack of oxygen, he himself would only have oxygen to last him for one hour, so how do you supposed he flew the plane around Penang some 3 to 4 hours later? He himself would be dead.  But, I supposed he could have programmed the plane to have done that.

Have you any clues as to why he would commit suicide with a plane full of passengers?

He could have flown to a high altitude depressurised the passenger cabin knocking them all unconscious
Then flown lower and set pressure levels to normal before his oxygen mask runs out

Pilot suicide has happened before

I didn't know you could do that? 

Yes it happened on one occasion before,. but its been strongly debated that it was not a pilot suicide.  I'll remember in a few minutes where that was...My memory is awful at times.

239 people lost. The aircraft must still be in one piece,even at the bottom of the ocean and obviously wouldn't have crash-landed,nor have hit the sea with any force,or bodies and wreckage would have been found floating,or washed-up in other areas.
I wonder why the pilot was forcing a fuel loss  ? The only time they do that is if they're landing closer than first anticipated,perhaps because of a problem with the controls,I don't know. Or perhaps he'd known,owing to a fault,that he was having to crash land. An awful situation.

My first thought was that he'd landed on one of the many small islands in the vicinity. Strange that there'd been no signal from anyone's mobile phone,or calls to their families that something was wrong. It seemed an eerie silence that there was no communication at all.

I've flown on an old 777 and like the 747's were workhorses of the skies and mainly reliable and safe.
I feel for all the friends/relatives whose lives have remained in limbo for the past year,not knowing anything,just hoping that no news is good news.

Yeah you can only really knock people out when the plane is flying high up where oxygen is low. The pilot could have just flown lower once everyone was knocked out

Don't forget they never searched in the south indian ocean until a few weeks after the plane went missing they spent a good 3 weeks or so looking in the china sea then the north Indian ocean. They missed the opportunity any debris would be scattered by the currents and impossiable to find only could do so by luck
