I think I missed this bit of the news.
So what happened to this plane?
Have they found it yet?

    They'll need to find the Black Box. I would have thought you of all people would know that.

    Latest is it might be somewhere where they didn't think it would be. I tend to find that is the case when I lose things too. I can also guarantee it will be in the last place they look and presumably the radar operator has been asked where he last saw it?

    Is it down the back of the sofa? That's where I normally find things I've lost :wink:

    It's probably flew through some worm hole thingy and it's stuck somewhere in the future or past.

    why don't they just ask their wives to look, never fails here?

    Did they not install the "Where's my Plane" app from the AirStore?

  • Is very strange indeed. Meteor strike? It may have crashed in jungle as it headed back over land, in which case they may struggle to ever find it as would not be seen from the air. Communication equipment stopped so no way of tracing it, could have flown on autopilot for 30 minutes at 650 miles per hour without being tracked so could literally be anywhere. I think I read the Daily Mail too much at work.

    Could it be in Crimea?

  • Maybe it crashed on the beach of a weird tropical island, that has polar bears, smoke monsters etc.
  • It is a reality game show now, they are actually asking members of the public to try and find it. Bit like a mordid version of a treasure hunt

    It was actually a privately charted aircraft by the Lord Lucan appreciation society.

    Link to a professional pilots' forum - interesting reading, although they don't seem to know where it is either...

    They need to ask a woman to look for it. This is typical male behaviour - look around all over the place and everywhere, in a panic, no matter how unlikely it is to be in some of those places are, fail to find missing Boeing, so go back and look in all the places you already looked for it and still fail to find it. A woman would just work out where it was most likely to be and find it in five minutes. My bet is that it is parked infront of the control tower in Kuala Lumpur and nobody has noticed it is there - it never even took off. "Dammit, what's that plane doing down there getting in the way of everyone. Don't they know we have a plane to find?"

  • It must have crashed surely? How could 200 hostages been hidden or worse for so long without anyone saying anything.

    there was a russian on board

    he democratically had a ballot with the choice to either a) secede from the plane, or b) secede from the plane

    he was the only one to vote, making it a 100% vote for secession, so putin made it part of russia

    Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed.
    Faith is the denial of observation so that Belief can be preserved

    It will turn up down the back of some student's sofa in a couple of years with mouldy bacon wrapped around it.
