Breaking News at noon today - the plane did a 180 U-turn and flew for over an additional hour after turning off all Coms (Malaysian Air Force) tracked the plane until it disappeared near Malaca / thousands of miles from where it should have been.

Well, that lends credence to the theory that it was pilot disorientation, and the Malays saying the plane turned around.

I have a feeling that this is going to end up as a big time Hollywood movie...

Something tells me this plane did not crash, at least not because of mechanical failure.

But later last night supposedly the M.A.F is saying they never made those comments that it turned around.

and btw...they said it went 350 or so

Malaysians backing off the U-Turn theory now. Viet Nam says "GFY... until you have some more evidence we're not spending anymore resources searching all over the So. Pacific for this plane."


Smoke Monster gots 'em now.

But is it possible that the hijackers were actually extraterrestrials visiting our planet?

Ancient astronaut theorists say "yes".

I am not an airplane expert, but I sort of doubt this as well. The Chinese sea is notorious for drifting debris.

Somebody on CNN speculated earlier that Chinese officials may have waited to report the discovery of the debris in order to avoid getting the families' hopes up of survival. Wut?

Same government that tried to tell it's people that pollution is beneficial to their everyday lives.

http://news.yahoo.com/chinese-government-tries-to-spin-smog-as-a-healthy-benefit--and-aid-to-national-defense-174649885.html

But it turns out they are now saying this is not a debris field from the plane.

The Wall Street Journal is stating that the plane may have flown 4 hours longer than its last confirmed location, but Malaysia saying not true.

Who the fuck knows what is goin on

My theory is the plane dropped off the passengers at a bio-war lab in Iran before going to Africa for some test monkeys. The Iranian nuke facility is just a distraction, its the airborne Ebola virus ya gotta worry about.
