Most Mysterious Aircraft accident: Malaysia Airlines MH370 | What Went Wrong | Free Documentary

an extraordinary search in the south indian ocean is underway the royal australian navy coordinated by the australian transport safety board is leading an international search for a plane that simply disappeared while on a routine flight from kuala lumpur to beijing the malaysian airlines flight 370 with 230 passengers and nine crew aboard there is an official hypothesis about where it crashed but nothing has been found some private individuals have attempted to calculate where it might be using their own professional experience finding the black box is vital to establishing the truth of one of the world's most mysterious air disasters there is only one theory that stacks up in every way about what happened to this aircraft this aircraft was deliberately taken wherever it's gone by somebody who knew everything about the triple 7. we might think that the pilots became unconscious after a few seconds the plane in fact had a very erratic trajectory this erratic trajectory may come from the fact that the pilots tried to find a new route to do something but one may have fallen unconscious before the other we have built a theory which is based on technique and this hypothesis is that the plane and the people at the controls wanted to land safe and sound somewhere on a landing strip able to have them we don't go any further we give no political interpretation and based on the facts that the radar and inmarsat data gave us the first thing i noticed was um i looked at the waypoint uh where the aircraft had gone missing and i saw that it was a place quite unusual and it was a place where all five different airspaces actually meet in one spot everything that we know about mh370 has been pulled together by both public authorities and private individuals to get a fleeting glimpse of what might have gone wrong aboard the flight [Music] it is the evening of the 8th of march 2014. the flight for beijing is ready for departure there isn't a cloud in the sky and 153 chinese 38 malaysian and a mix of other nationalities including two italians are preparing for their flight to china captain zachary ahmed shah and his co-pilot first officer farik abdul hamid are in the cockpit they have been through security and are preparing the plane for takeoff neither has shown any sign of mental stress both have families and enjoy the prestige of flying for one of the best airlines in the world what happened on board mh 370 remains one of the great mysteries of aviation bernard chaber is an internationally renowned aviation journalist and has investigated aviation accidents for the last 50 years it was an aircraft in a perfect state piloted by serious people competent people who fly for an airline that has a good reputation especially in southeast asia an airline that's an example an old airline a traditional one that knows what it's doing the flight takes off around midnight the weather's good there's nothing special it's not a long flight either several hours a flight to china that crosses airspaces that are not dangerous either weather-wise or geopolitically a priori in the initial report presented by the malaysian government the exact route followed by mh370 is accurately traced but understanding the sequence of events even partially was not easy the flight took off at 0 0 42 malaysian time or 1642 coordinated universal time the time measure used by the investigation it rapidly rose to 35 000 feet or 10 and a half thousand meters and headed directly for beijing [Music] the flight was due to last approximately five hours just after 1 20 am the aircraft left an area of singapore's air traffic responsibility delegated to malaysia at a waypoint known as igari as he entered the ho chi minh air traffic control area sahari ahmed shah said good night to malaysian air traffic control malaysia 370 contact 120. [Music] david leomand is a civil airlines expert for flight international magazine a whole lot of simple things happened in a few moments and just as the the aircraft captain um called kuala lumpur control and said good night and was told to call ho chi minh city air traffic control um he then uh we the the transponder on the aircraft went off okay so let's say one of the pilots turned the transponder off so it could no longer be seen by kuala lumpur and they would have thought that's a bit odd but he's talking to ho chi minh city but of course he didn't call ho chi minh city what he did do was he turned quite sharply to the left mh-370 disappeared from the air traffic control radar that traces the signals sent out by the aircraft's transponder with its individual call sign former euro control project manager and member of the captio group of investigators into the mystery jean-luc marshall understands exactly what this means you have to understand what was going on in the mind of the air traffic controller kuala lumpur had said goodbye to the aircraft which means that in his mental procedure he was no longer under my control i asked you to manually make radio contact with ho chi minh it is an old-fashioned manual process it is the aircraft that takes the initiative not the air traffic controller which explains the reaction time so the malaysian controller thinks that's it i'm done this aircraft is no longer with me so he concentrates and that night he concentrated on four aircrafts that were flying in the southwest quadrant that maybe weren't going to meet but required his attention and for him the malaysian 370 was out of his control area the civilian air traffic control services lost sight of the aircraft because they rely on what's known as secondary surveillance radar basically at the their radar sends out an interrogation signal and a transponder on the aircraft airplane answers it and says i'm here and this is me identification if you switch off the transponder on the airplane nothing comes back so air traffic control loses sight of it other automatic and voluntary communications systems exist also the aircraft captain will change vhf radio frequencies as hiyoshi enters a new air traffic control airspace to be able to communicate with the new controllers on the ground the aircraft also signals its status directly to the airline the system is called aircraft communication addressing and reporting system or a-cars la carcetail system diagnostic delivery is an auto diagnostic system of the aircraft a system by which the aircraft self diagnoses and is able at predetermined intervals to automatically send a status report saying i'm here i'm going there i'm flying at this speed engine temperatures of this and a massive data as requested as required by the airline and the owner of the aircraft who decide how they want to follow the aircraft and how often and so forth so the aircraft sends data that shows the state of the plane constantly diagnostic a third navigation system contacts the navigation satellite in marsat and depending on the package the airline has bought from the satellite company can identify the exact position of the plane system the system keep us parallel resources and systems the communication the inmarsat satellite system is a system of communications relays that are emitted by stations in the air on the ground on the sea there are signals that can be received within a certain range of the transmitter but if this transmitter contacts the satellite and the satellite can send the same signal to another satellite at 120 hours local time on the 8th of march 2014 all these communications ceased to function [Music] by the next morning the aircraft was declared lost it never landed in beijing hundreds of distraught relatives would be left without answers with the heaviest heart and deeper sorrow that on behalf of the government of malaysia we officially declare malaysia airlines flight mh370 and accident and that all 200 239 of the passengers and crew on board mh370 are presumed to have lost their lives this aircraft didn't disappear in one click it disappeared over a couple of hours okay it was being watched the military who use other forms of radar mainly primary radar they did not lose sight of it they were watching it for some time and they watched the aircraft virtually do a 180 degree turn and fly along a line precisely between two areas of air traffic control responsibility that's vietnam's and and kuala lumpur's responsibilities so that each side thought the other side had responsibility and nobody questioned what was going on it was the beginning of one of the most tragic aviation mysteries of all time had the aircraft crashed into the south china sea it took a week for the malaysian air force to volunteer the information that mh370 had been tracked by military radar in fact the flight flew right over penang and north westwards out over the andaman sea before disappearing what could possibly have happened aboard the military the military if they had been watching and they said they had seen the plane at that point could not understand that the four segments they could seen on their radar and their echo radar were the same aircraft only a person could make that connection and if the controller did then as he said in his report he did not consider the aircraft as a threat and rightly and cleverly the aircraft flew along the frontier between thailand and malaysia making each side think that it was under the other's control one of the people determined to find the plane is simon hardy himself a boeing triple seven pilot and instructor it was only when uh the first report came out saying that the they had really no way of finding where it was that i became interested um and the first thing i'd noticed was um i looked at the waypoint where the aircraft had gone missing and i saw that it was a place quite unusual and it was a place where all five different airspaces actually meet in one spot six weeks after the aircraft disappeared the satellite company inmarsat was able to come forward with information of its own the aircraft's inmarsat receiver contacted the indian ocean satellite seven times beginning at 225 local time an hour after the aircraft had disappeared signaling that the system was booting up proving that it had been turned off beforehand our interpretation is that when the aircraft's electricity was cut off or that someone aboard turned off the electricity there are two ways there's the electronic bay that is under the cockpit that someone could have got into on the ground and stayed there during the flight as it's pressurized heated habitable and decide to open the main electricity disjunctures that turns the electricity off what happens the rat or a turbine a little windmill is deployed from the aircraft and produces a small amount of electricity but enough to fly the plane and enough hydraulics to activate the controls the system sent out and sent out an interrogation that is the satellite sent out an interrogation from time to time and got a vestigial response it wasn't a response that contained much detail but but geometrically the satellite could work out where at what range from the satellite that aircraft was now the range means it's anywhere on a big circle those are that those those signals enabled enabled people to understand navigation and mathematics to work out where the aircraft must have gone your gps uh in your car is uh finds three satellites and it doesn't know where you are your gps it knows how far you are from that satellite and it also knows the distance to that one and this is that one so in its brain in your gps it then draws three circles and where they intersect is your position and then it puts it on a map so in this way we've got if you look at these seven circles they're the sort of gps distance circles but we've only got one satellite we haven't got the three so there's no intersection of three lines to show you where you are you've just got a circle and you're somewhere on that enormous circle the satellite provided two types of information the burst time offset is the time it takes for a signal to leave the ground station and reach the aircraft via the satellite which gives an arc of possible locations another set of data burst frequency offset is derived from the difference between expected and real speed of delivery of the return signal which varies due to a doppler effect caused by the planes and the satellites movement [Music] for each inmarsat signal we have two values the bto and the bfo the first gives us a position on a sphere that isn't necessarily the terrestrial globe as it is also in altitude the second gives us an indication of the movement of the plane at that moment in time is it climbing or descending how come because the aircraft has a system of frequency compensation that compensates the doppler effect that is imperfect and this error tells us whether the aircraft was climbing or descending and whether it was approaching or distancing itself from the satellite the seven concentric rings produced by the inmarsat satellite tell us mh370 was somewhere on the circumference but do not tell us the direction it was flying in however the bpo values did help identify the root and the altitude the malaysian radar signal shows an extremely calm precise execution of the flight and the turn off course shows that the pilots were professional and executed it manually and clearly were not panicking they turned the electricity back on when they needed to but they had plenty of time because the maneuvers were every half an hour their aircraft can't descend by itself someone has to enter a new altitude an aircraft will always remain at the same altitude unless there is a human intervention in the meantime a number of safety issues were coming to light together with various theories as to what might have happened on board two travelers on italian passports were found to be iranian refugees who presented false passports but the hijacking thesis was quickly discarded when the two iranians were identified however another terrifying hypothesis came to light [Music] ion we think that there was a case containing 200 kilos maybe 240 kilos of lithium-ion batteries loaded aboard this aircraft let's imagine that this crate was loaded into the front cargo bay when you go into a triple seven cargo bay which is a high ceiling space almost as high as here you're in a room a long room that's several maybe six meters wide and in front of this room and under the cockpit there's a bulwark that separates the cargo bay from the electronics bay soon electronic the communications bay of the boeing triple 7 is separated from the cargo bay by a thin bulwark and a door if the lithium-ion batteries had been loaded against the bonework any explosion would have cut through the separating wall and the communications bay releasing toxic gases directly into the air conditioning this might have knocked out the crew and passengers leaving only the pilot enough time to don his oxygen mask when illicit battery burns it produces a fireball a flash that burns out very fast that doesn't burn very long a real flash that releases an enormous heat that releases mortal gasses very quickly without communications and struggling to find somewhere to land the fainting pilot could have headed for the closest airfield missed it and turned back before losing consciousness what will be the first reaction of crew that is swamped by fumes and realizes that they're dangerous fumes they put on their masks they try to communicate to alert someone and the first thing they do is to turn towards the closest emergency landing strip the aircraft did in fact according to the presumed radar trace the aircraft did turn towards an airport that could have worked as an emergency airport in case of a catastrophic problem aboard so the aircraft did in fact follow an erratic route and this erratic route could have been due to the fact that the pilots tried to find a new route to do something but one might have fallen unconscious before the other two other lithium battery related incidents in the past decade suggest that this is a possibility flight ups 9 from dubai crash landed in the desert after the pilots signaled a fire aboard provoked by lithium batteries however the fire was so catastrophic that the aircraft crashed there have been two accidents involving 747 cargos one in the middle east and the other in the far east over the pacific a short time after takeoff in the case of the middle eastern accident the flight lasted just a few minutes the captain it seems had left his seat in the cockpit full of fumes to go and get a mask because his wasn't functioning but the co-pilot on the other hand who was equipped with the mask said just before the aircraft crash that he couldn't even see the instruments such as the smoke in the cockpit the supposed fire didn't bring the aircraft down unusual and two didn't cut off the communications very unusual so it's something that you wouldn't expect and the aircraft was still flying and we could still see it on the military radar it was still flying very successfully as it goes around penang so the time between the fire and somebody not controlling the aircraft is quite long if there's a fire you do want to get the aircraft on the ground as soon as possible land as soon as possible is what the checklist says is someone in the cockpit who on the upper control panel above the pilot's head can press four five buttons to open the circuits like the disjunctures that are simple pressure buttons he presses and turns off the generators the two main ones one in each engine plus the backup plus the turbine that you hear when you go aboard an aircraft you hear the turbine at the back of the aircraft that supplies power to the aircraft at times and the fifth generator if you turn off all five then the rat is deployed automatically the investigation brought to light another disturbing fact pilot zahari ahmed shah had mapped a route to the south indian ocean on his personal computer simulator and carrier the co-pilot was a young man who was beginning a brilliant career as an airline pilot which isn't the worst job in the world as for the captain he had a great career and although he was like anyone else with his ideas with her life but it showed no signs of mental stress unlike other crashes caused by suicide as a pilot that could have been foreseen or were foreseeable while here there's nothing that could indicate that there was a deliberate decision on the part of a crew member precedent deliberately we know that this aircraft must have been directed from the time that it was watched by military radar it must have been directed by somebody who knew how to fly the aircraft and how to navigate it and how to operate its systems so we're probably talking about a pilot um there were only two pilots on board we don't know if if this was a deliberate act we don't know the precise motivation for it but it might have been revenge against malaysia against the airline against the employer against the government you've got a huge device with malaysia written down the side of it if you want to get your own back on something malaysian making that airplane disappear might be rather a good way of doing it however speculation on the reasons for the loss of mh 370 will only be fully dispelled once the black box or flight data recorder has been found as the world puzzled over what had happened to mh 370 with 230 people aboard a number of new details came to light the first officer's telephone was on and a signal had been picked up at 2 31 hours as the aircraft flew around penang island no other telephones were picked up and yet there were hundreds of phones on the aircraft what had happened to the passengers and crew the aircraft followed a route that only a very able pilot could have managed according to jean-luc marchand two other aircraft were flying along the flight path mh370 was on so the pilot took evasive [Music] he action to find this route after leaving penang it was an airline that runs from singapore kuala lumpur towards the middle east and europe and which was quite active which planes were flying along and that night as he left the radar coverage he was followed by an emirates flight about 20 nautical miles behind his left shoulder and in front of him he had a flight that had left half an hour earlier from madras from chennai which was on indigo and which was flying about the same altitude so he had two planes flying more or less at his altitude and he wanted to take a left turn and to avoid them he carried out a contingency procedure which involves shifting right by 15 nautical miles and then descending to pass under the airline the aircraft went to great lengths not to alert air forces by flying along non-threatening routes and as far away as possible from known radar ranges but if the plane flew south where did it end up we hypothesized that the pilot or whoever was at the controls respected the structure of airspace and the lanes and keeping that in mind we deduced the potential and possible actions of the aircraft at each key moment and thanks to the measurements we identified the direction and the altitude of flight from the inmarsat data so we interpreted the data to find the trajectory and this gave us a trajectory that was descending between 1825 and 1840 before turning south to fly under the air lanes remaining at altitude 270. to go around the secondary radar of sibang and then he flew south so changed heading and then he flew under two air lanes that are lower on the other hand simon hardy does not believe the plane flew low but rather tried to get as far away as possible so he concentrated on the last three arcs on which the aircraft was located while still communicating with inmarsat there's seven pings seven circles seven uh range circles which have to be solved the first one and the last one is the uh aircraft being re-powered or the satellite unit the satellite data unit on the aircraft being re-powered and it's saying to the satellite i'm starting up after having been off the other ones is a periodic uh inquiry from the satellite to the aircraft saying uh are you still turned on so that's why these arcs are now apart apart from one which is the ones i use later is an hour and a half apart because there's a telephone call that comes in at the moment when it would have been sending the inquiry the hourly inquiry the information simon hardy was looking for was direction and speed values that were compatible with the plane taking an hour to fly between the fifth and sixth arc at 90 minutes between the sixth and seventh most of my lines when i drew them on this this big map here were pretty much parallel i didn't know which one was correct but i was finding something out i was finding out that the the the track of the aircraft during those two and a half hours was somewhere between 188 degrees and 192 degrees now simon had to find the speed the aircraft has to fly down from up near the tip of sumatra it has to get to these various points on the last section has to get there and so what i did then was say okay the the distance from there to there the time from there there is three hours and five minutes it has to get there so what's the speed of it from there to there one of these lines will be no speed change between the three hours and five minutes and the next bit which is drawn down here so then that was that was the next process was okay what is the constant speed line of all these lines and they're crossing over and nicely in the opposite direction so which is the constant speed line so i did my calculations i found the constant speed line which was 488 knots the constant speed line that connected the distance between the fifth and sixth arc and the sixth and seventh indicated a speed that simon had seen often unlike a car and in crews an aircraft goes pretty much at the same speed day in day out so for the last 15 years i've been seeing 488 knots in front of me as i'm in cruise on my triple seven so the fact it was telling me the constant speed line is 488 knots that's that's that's astounding that tells me not only that i'm making progress but maybe the the aircraft that made this line was a triple seven rather than a 737 if the aircraft was flying at 488 knots along those lines what course would it have taken to reach the place it disappeared from radar coverage in three hours and five minutes from its last sighting [Music] so at that point i then transferred from this map where you can't see this is a long way away from the tip of sumatra so i then transferred my infections onto google maps drew the little line down here which is the 488 uh between four five and six and joined it up the three three out of five minutes to see what the difference in the angle was well it wasn't there wasn't a difference in the angle it's a straight line that was the second part where i'd say oh goodness i'm on to something here the slower the plane flies the more its route will curve to the east so it will end up further north and the areas searched that were searched assuming a straight line if you assume a high speed then the straighter the line and the more it will take a southerly route it's inevitable in our case our trajectory is descending bit by bit so the speed of the plane is slower and slower that's inevitable so our trajectory aims towards christmas island other groups such as the atsb for example say that they think it flew at a constant speed because at that altitude you need to fly relatively fast to fly at all so inevitably their heading is much more southerly that little line down here in the southern edge could have been pointing at bali or india or anywhere but it wasn't it was pointing directly at the place where the aircraft turned south however it is the last part of the route that is so difficult to estimate the inmarsat transmitter was rebooted but never told the satellite it was ready at some time within those three minutes the aircraft was no longer flying the royal australian navy and the malaysian government joined forces to search for the aircraft and launched the most expensive search and rescue operation of all time the resources placed at the disposal of the operation were impressive but the size of the area was also awe-inspiring more than a million square kilometers of empty ocean the search continued for four years and then the private oil prospecting company ocean infinity offered a success fee deal to find the plane these two campaigns also drew a blank once simon hardy was able to establish the route and the distance it was a logical step to estimate the location of the aircraft that where that 188 degrees crosses the last beep is uh the place to say okay the aircraft passed over the seventh arc here uh that is not where they've searched there but i've always said you know that's not a place to search where the seventh arc is is where the aircraft is saying um i'm you know it's another indication that the satellite unit is working it's actually a start-up again but it's saying windows starting so it's working so the seventh art all these complicated things inside the aircraft are working it hasn't been smashed into a thousand pieces the inmarsat transmitter was rebooted because it had been turned off beforehand possibly because the engines no longer provided electrical power it never sent a message to say it was ready in those three minutes the aircraft was no longer flying by creating a flight plan based on the actual route followed by the aircraft and the presumed route to the south indian ocean simon hardy was able to find three parameters that indicate where the plane should be as a triple seventh part pilot i was able to use a professional flight plan for the known part of the flight which you can see for about the first hour um up to when it disappears off the edge of the radar at 1822 forever so that's all absolutely correct and then after that i have to add in a little bit up to the turn south and then turn south on 188 straight and then i can also draw another circle of where it runs out of fuel so i've got two circles i've got i've got two lines one eight seventh arc and now i've got another arc which is the the range circle so those all cross and almost the same place they cross in about 27 nautical miles from each other which is again that's extraordinary i couldn't make it up according to this theory pilot sahari ahmad was alive and piloting for the whole period of the flight from where it disappeared off the radar screens to its final descent it is a terrifying idea the french former euro control expert has a different theory we don't know how whoever was in control actually introduced the data into the flight computer to indicate the next point did they introduce a flight plan or did they do it point by point so if it was a flight plan and they had indicated christmas island we have to take into account that the predictions of the flight computer are not perfectly precise and it gets more accurate as it draws closer to the destination our flight simulator continued to tell us that we had enough fuel to get there up to 200 nautical miles beforehand and then as we drew closer told us we wouldn't make it how could the pilot have got away with it there was a crew and there was a co-pilot the most obvious uh way to disable the passengers would be to do a depressurization which can easily be organized we have switches to prevent it so it's usually it's usually done by the aircraft is automatically doing pressurization but if that goes wrong we have some switches you can go to manual opening of uh outflow valves big about this size uh outflow valves on the side of the aircraft on the front one of the back and we can manually control them so if you wanted to do a depressurization for some reason uh you can do it as as the pilot you have you know you have full control over the aircraft so that would be the easiest way to disable the passengers and the crew one of the reasons simon hardy is so convinced that the aircraft was deliberately taken off course is a strange maneuver it carried out over the island of panang the aircraft does a strange turn around penang that was another one it took me months to think about that one in that it doesn't go directly over the airport so i was thinking why is it staying away it's staying a few miles away but it does a very shallow turn all the way around the southern waters of the island and then after a while i remembered that i'd done this sort of maneuver myself when i want to look at something it was air's rock so i wouldn't want to look at something so oh somebody's looking out the window somebody's looking at something and so that's when i came down here and i typed in who where the crew from where's the first officer from it's from selangor where's it where's the captain from it's from the island of we think that the aircraft was controlled right to the end and despite having no engines the pilot tried to ditch the plane why because there is so little debris on the surface that has been recovered and the nature of the debris and the way it has broken suggests to us that it was a ditching effect study of the ocean currents suggests that mh370 really did crash land in the southern indian ocean one part in particular is of interest it is the left flapper on and it suggests that the pilot tried to ditch the plane smoothly on water rather than crashing it vertically [Music] the flaperon found in reunion was eroded along the trailing edge damage that can only have been produced if it had been extended for landing an event that was spectacularly achieved on the hudson river in 2017 by chesley burnett sullenberger we took a look at all the depressions that crossed the potential path of the debris and there were about 15 of which one was very important and that is jillian just a few days after the crash and that's determining because it took the debris very far south for several days and then pushed them westwards which makes the point that we have found as the aircraft's crash site plausible so we projected this debris and saw where they would land and in fact the data suggested la reunion island over the times observed on the coast of madagascar and africa over the same time simon hardy's calculations did not end with an approximate place of ditching he continued to look at the data available and at the area where he thinks the plane might be when i started drawing the final resting place of the aircraft which ends up with a shape of a piece of cheese i saw that there was a dark line running through the this piece of cheese from the tip of it to the uh curved edge running right through it uh like a spine through it and i had no idea what that was another coincidence so i then looked it up and it's called the hailvinch fracture zone it's a big trench it's uh [Music] 4500 metres deep it has seismic activity as somebody who was planning uh to make an aircraft disappear if that's what's happened this would be an ideal place to put it according to some reports there is a final twist in the story of mh370 shah received a telephone call on his own cell phone half an hour before takeoff it was made from a phone using a sim card that had been bought by a woman using a false identity however the telephone that used that sim card has been identified but that identity has not been released by the malaysian government nor where the telephone call was made from the sim card made that one single telephone call who made it and what was said will never be known even in this day and age of high-tech and ubiquitous personal information nor will the reason why one of the largest and most sophisticated aircraft available today disappeared over the most remote area of the earth the mystery will continue unless the aircraft is found and its flight data recorder retrieved as the relatives of the 230 passengers and crew aboard mh370 earnestly hope [Music] [Music] [Music] is an internationally renowned aviation journalist and has investigated aviation malaysian 370 1209 [Music] david leomand is a civil airlines expert for flight international magazine and member of the captio group of investigators into the mystery jean-luc marshall understands exactly this aircraft didn't disappear in one click it disappeared over a couple of hours it was only when uh the first report came out saying that the they had really no way of station and reach the aircraft via the satellite which gives an arc of possible locations [Music] however speculation on the reasons for the loss of mh370 will only be fully dispelled once the black box or flight data recorder has been found he managed to find this route after leaving penang it was an airline and simon hardy does not believe the plane flew low but rather tried to get as far away as possible if you assume a high speed then the straighter the line and the more it will take a southerly route it's inevitable descending bit by bit so the speed of the plane is slower and slower that's inevitable so our trajectory aims towards christmas island right where that 188 degrees crosses the last beep is uh the place to say i've got two circles got i've got two lines one eight eight seventh arc and now i've got another arc which is the the range circle so those all crosses almost the french former euro control expert has a different theory jillian just a few days after the crash and that's determining because [Music] [Music] you

Sort of off topic, but I figured it was worth pointing out. A year and a half ago I posted a review of Florence de Changy's "The Disappearing Act: The Impossible Case of MH370" on the Amazon website. I titled it "Why let facts get in the way of a good conspiracy theory?" Well, now when I go to the Amazon page, under Top Reviews from the US, guess what - my review has percolated to the top of the list! In fact, if I search for the book using Google (search terms Changy Disappearing Act), the returned results page actually quotes part of a sentence from my review. What next? I might even have my work highlighted at airlineratings.com!

Right after that last message where the pilot said goodnight the transmitters go off. It seems like it was intentional for the plane to look like it went down in the South China Sea. Of course the last ping is close to one of the deepest parts of the Indian Ocean. The pilot practiced this on his simulator. I am curious to know what else was on his computer.

There are what we call totally unnoticed, very solidly established findings in MH370 mystery. Why has NO attention ever given to the huge facts that ONLY in Ft. Maturin, Reunion, Mauritius, and NE, and Se Madagascar, as well as Eastern Africa from Tanzania on down into S. African shores, have ANY debris been found?

No where else in the entire Indian Ocean basin has ANY debris found conclusively and much highly likely.

https://jochesh00.wordpress.com/2019/06/19/the-likely-indian-ocean-so-equatorial-current-crash-sites-for-mh370/

Please look at the debris and current maps in the article.

None has been found in Indonesia, nor S. China Sea, nor Andamans, nor the Maldives no from India eastwards to Malaysia. None has been found in Australia.

Those debris facts are always being ignored. & because of that a testable hypothesis is also being ignored. The debris finds match the So. Equat. current like a hand in a glove.

The actual, proven and likely debris have ONLY been found in those sites. And that means, empirically consistently with the drift data alone the So. Equat. Current of Indian ocean, was Where MH370 went down!!!

Recently had another purported downing in S. China Sea. Where absolutely NO debris have ever been found, either.

Only on the flow patterns of the S. Eq. Current have Debris been found in Ft. Mathurin and west.

If he plane crashed just east of there in the So. Equat. Current flow would have taken the debris to precisely those places it was found.

If we take 120 , very durable, radio frequency buoys, and scatter them from a site within a few 100 Kms. East of Ft. Mathurin, then they will e carried by the S. Equat. Current to where debris were found. Should we find too few, then the jet went down further west of the first test drop site. If we find too many, then to the East of the test site.

This observation has been made, and ignored. It's empirically testable. ANY really solid theory of where the MH370 went down MUST, Clearly, empirically explain why the debris were found where they were.

No other model can explain the data but the above. Ignoring real, existing data is not good science and violates the Empirical rule of the science, that data cannot be ignored.

Drop the RF buoys in the right site in Indian Ocean on the So. Equ. current, and we will find MH370.

It's that simple.

Why didn't they search all along the 7th arc rather than searching one section of it that was wider? I know that there was evidence from ocean drift and the flaperon barnacle analysis showing that the debris traversed through warmer waters, but it's not conclusive evidence that writes off a more southern or even more nothern location. This is especially since the Indian Ocean currents are like an anti-clockwise circle. So many assumptions were made (e.g. straight lines? pilot still making turns at the end? hard or ditched landing?).

Without any hard evidence, there should have been at least one passing search along the entire 7th arc from the southernmost location all the way up until the north, then they could have followed with a more concentrated search in the areas modelled by the ocean drift.

OI's next search is going to be even further north which I doubt they will find anything because Z was clearly trying to hide the evidence. Why fly closer to land-based radars and risk further detection?

That we can't rule out multiple different assumptions make future searches more difficult.

From an outsider POV with little investigative knowledge i'd bet everything i had it was the us military. I'm not saying they were in the wrong by any means for doing it either. If any of us flew our plane near their island with zero communication we would be shot down, and we all know that. Regardless, thats just my theory. God speed for the truth, and for the families.
