The world is baffled as to what happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 several days ago. One of the largest commercial airliners in existence, a Boeing 777, simply vanished from radar, in a day of advanced technology, and out of sight, in a heavily populated region. Half of the world’s entire population lives in Asia, yet not a single pair of eyes have seen this giant airplane.
Investigators seem to be clueless as to what has happened and have only recently decided they’ve been looking in the wrong place. At least that’s what they’re telling us.
The online site Educate Inspire Change.org has recently published a story that asks us to look at six facts that the mainstream media is not telling us. And it’s not conspiracy. These are reasonable questions that are as of yet to be answered.
• Fact #1: All Boeing 777 commercial jets are equipped with black box recorders that can survive any on-board explosionNo explosion from the plane itself can destroy the black box recorders. They are bomb-proof structures that hold digital recordings of cockpit conversations as well as detailed flight data and control surface data.• Fact #2: All black box recorders transmit locator signals for at least 30 days after falling into the oceanYet the black box from this particular incident hasn’t been detected at all. That’s why investigators are having such trouble finding it. Normally, they only need to “home in” on the black box transmitter signal. But in this case, the absence of a signal means the black box itself — an object designed to survive powerful explosions — has either vanished, malfunctioned or been obliterated by some powerful force beyond the worst fears of aircraft design engineers.• Fact #3: Many parts of destroyed aircraft are naturally bouyant and will float in waterIn past cases of aircraft destroyed over the ocean or crashing into the ocean, debris has always been spotted floating on the surface of the water. That’s because — as you may recall from the safety briefing you’ve learned to ignore — “your seat cushion may be used as a flotation device.”Yes, seat cushions float. So do many other non-metallic aircraft parts. If Flight 370 was brought down by an explosion of some sort, there would be massive debris floating on the ocean, and that debris would not be difficult to spot. The fact that it has not yet been spotted only adds to the mystery of how Flight 370 appears to have literally vanished from the face of the Earth.• Fact #4: If a missile destroyed Flight 370, the missile would have left a radar signatureOne theory currently circulating on the ‘net is that a missile brought down the airliner, somehow blasting the aircraft and all its contents to “smithereens” — which means very tiny pieces of matter that are undetectable as debris.The problem with this theory is that there exists no known ground-to-air or air-to-air missile with such a capability. All known missiles generate tremendous debris when they explode on target. Both the missile and the debris produce very large radar signatures which would be easily visible to both military vessels and air traffic authorities.• Fact #5: The location of the aircraft when it vanished is not a mysteryAir traffic controllers have full details of almost exactly where the aircraft was at the moment it vanished. They know the location, elevation and airspeed — three pieces of information which can readily be used to estimate the likely location of debris.Remember: air safety investigators are not stupid people. They’ve seen mid-air explosions before, and they know how debris falls. There is already a substantial data set of airline explosions and crashes from which investigators can make well-educated guesses about where debris should be found. And yet, even armed with all this experience and information, they remain totally baffled on what happened to Flight 370.• Fact #6: If Flight 370 was hijacked, it would not have vanished from radarHijacking an airplane does not cause it to simply vanish from radar. Even if transponders are disabled on the aircraft, ground radar can still readily track the location of the aircraft using so-called “passive” radar (classic ground-based radar systems that emit a signal and monitor its reflection).Thus, the theory that the flight was hijacked makes no sense whatsoever. When planes are hijacked, they do not magically vanish from radar.Conclusion: Flight 370 did not explode; it vanished
The inescapable conclusion from what we know so far is that Flight 370 seems to have utterly and inexplicably vanished. It clearly was not hijacked (unless there is a cover-up regarding the radar data), and we can all be increasingly confident by the hour that this was not a mid-air explosion (unless debris suddenly turns up that they’ve somehow missed all along).The inescapable conclusion is that Flight 370 simply vanished in some way that we do not yet understand. This is what is currently giving rise to all sorts of bizarre-sounding theories across the ‘net, including discussions of possible secret military weapons tests, Bermuda Triangle-like ripples in the fabric of spacetime, and even conjecture that non-terrestrial (alien) technology may have teleported the plane away.
So what do you think? Bermuda Triangle? Aliens? Or is it just that the world is way bigger than we view it as being and there’s still a lot of area that is yet to be searched? Let us know in the comments below.
