LOL @ BB-C news for showing you how you can learn to fly a Boeing in 15 mins by actually showing you on a simulator on the news and then showing inside the 777 cockpit and how to turn the transponder off. "All you need to do is turn this switch two clicks to the left!"

^what in the actual fck??

Are those pics legit? Looks like a runway in the middle of the desert?!

[jackleballs]

Not really. It gives us a likely location because there's no reason to believe the flight path was anything but roughly straight, but there's also no way to be certain of that.

Apparently they can tell how far away from the satellite the plane is, they just can't tell in which direction.

So they took the last known location and the satellite ping locations and factored in how far the plane could get with the amount of fuel they had left.

It's likely that it is somewhere on that arc.

And that is just what they are telling us. I have a fairly strong suspicion that countries like England, The USA, Israel, etc... keep a pretty close eye on places like Iran, Iraq, The 'stans. In fact, I'd be shocked if they didn't have blanket satellite coverage of the entire region.

I'd be equally shocked if they were to ever share that type of info with some twitter clowns, or the media.

I think there is a pretty good chance that some agency / agencies know where the plane is.

Or, they have no idea and it's in pieces on a mountain, or way deep in the Indian ocean.

[datniche]

was there a plane though? how do we actually know this? even if there was, it was a planned operation and the plane was escorted into a secret location by military.

are you ok?

can it be proven that in fact there were actually ~50 seats empty on the plane at the time?

I was reading that empty seats on a flight like this really isn't unusual at all.

I remember when one day one of my mates phone got stolen, It was a Samsung Galaxy s2 and he had Google Latitude installed in there.

Guess what, he tracked down the phone all the way to the other side of the country, and when police did not want to do anything we saw how the phone went all the way to france 100% srs.

So no one on that flight had a phone with a gps in there that could be tracked? lol.

do you even cell tower?

There are runways all over the place. I took off from Monterey California to Vegas like two years ago and saw a few small runways in the middle of nowhere.

empty seats means nothing....airlines dont always fly at full capacity

lol for anyone that has used flight simulator, it is not easy and cannot be easily learned in 15 min. especially if there is no contact with air traffic control.

Option B is pretty scary. It could take months or years to find any trace of the plane if it went down there.

[montecarlo]

are you ok?

are YOU?

TFW i actually owned and played this game. goat.

if it went down at the red dot? that's not that scary. at least there's no potential of further action.

[ClaudeGiroux]

holy fuk that hit me right in the feels

brb downloading when i get off of work

They had a pilot show the reporter how to change altitude and turn the plane in a real simulator or change course by programing some chit into it, in 15 mins he could do it. He didn't actually use the controls, just programmed some chit into it. They then showed him (and us) how to turn the transponder off.

whats in that red dot aware me?

If you are still holding out hope for survivors it is.

A pretty ****ty place to have your life end.

It doesn't mean anything official, it's just right in the middle of the Indian Ocean, around where the southern arc ends.

China's already said they will find the plane no matter what--even if it takes 20 years.

Oops.

[YourCousinVinny]

CNN reporting some stuff right now live.

Still puzzling.

[plsmire]

How far does a country's airspace radar stretch to? I mean if the plan is travelling, it surely would have entered another country's airspace, detected on rader.

Did the plan literally travel via sea avoiding all country's airspace and therefore avoiding its atc radar?

[LaRuso]

Passenger in row R, seat 3 was apparently US citizen Cameron Poe.

[LaBellaVita1]

ah its really sad... got me in the feelerinos..

[AcE831]

LOL 15 minutes to master flying a plan on Flight Simulator? LMFAO notsureifsrs.jpg it took me 15 minutes to learn how to switch between screens, find the thurst, etc. brb restarted it 10 times due to overstressing the plane. GTFO beebeecee. This happened two days ago. Might try to master it again in 15 minutes lolwut?

I don't think the pilot was involved IMO. Just because he had a badass flight simulator, doesn't mean he had it to practice the hijacking. Some people have pride in the work they do, which he seemed to have. Think about it in a country like Malaysia. Third world country and you are a pilot and fly all over the world. Something to be proud of IMO.

mind blown people dont realize there is global surveillance. ****ing noobs wasting your damn time being "puzzled" over something you should already know the answer to.



smh.

the ocean

i am hoping, but highly doubting

their life probably ended due to intentional decompression of the cabin
