I haven't heard anyone talk about the possibility of a pilot being paid to steal the plane.
A human has to be seriously mentally ill to kill over 200 people during a planned suicide.
When the transponders are turned off and communication can't be established shouldn't jets be scrambled to intercept or find that aircraft immediately? Military radar on jets would have found that aircraft if it was still in the air, right?
- dandelany 13y agoAgain, I find a single man's serious mental illness far more likely than a conspiracy to commit mass murder and theft. As for the military radar/jets - this incident has exposed a pretty big flaw in Malaysian airspace security, which likely explains why they've been so hesitant and late to communicate the facts of the primary radar track. If this had happened in America, Russia, China or the Middle East, you'd almost certainly be right.
