Yahoo user Frank responds to Torrent (see previous post on this blog, below this one) with these comments regarding missing Flight MH370 via yahoo news comments (see link to article below, also I commented as yahoo user Robert):
"Great post - here's some thoughts-
So - Let's rule some stuff out.
1. Agreed - Suicide is out. The pilot would have to disable some
control systems but within his capabilities. But the flew on for 7
hours - he would have had to kill all onboard too - doing that without
just crashing the plane is too weird..
2. Kinda - Terrorism is out. It could have been a lone wolf type of thing - like Boston.
3. Agreed - Theft of the plane is out - this is a theory that I believe
oringniated on yahoo comment boards and is about as idiotic as even the
worst theories.
4. Kinda - Theft of the plane for technology is out, although terrorist
would love to have a 777 to learn how to fly on - it's a difficult
thing to pull off - the "radar" thing would have watched the plane land
anywhere (except Diego Garcia - but the ACARS data does support the
plane flying in that direction).
5. Agreed - Military seizure is a very difficult solution to a problem where so many much simpler solutions exist.
6. Out - Communicable diseases theory is straight out of Hollywood -
right now there is some producer that is calling Harrison Ford about
this movie right now.
7. Out - Theft of the plane to pack it full of nukes - This just
couldn't happen for so many, so many, so many, so many, so many reasons -
here's a short list - tracking of nukes, tracking of current flights
and current squawks, the huge number of civilians that would act as part
of all of these systems make a cover up in possible, RADAR - it sees
planes flying around, missile defense systems, fighters ready to
scramble at a moments notice, ACARS, etc.
Thought on the List of oddities:
1. Complete radio and telephone silence - last words heard: goodnight
tower (no stress or concern in voice). Technological know-how and
ability to disable communication systems is extreme - and the pilots
should have been able to communicate using alternate forms of
communication as systems began failing.
2. Disappearance from all area national radars
3. Disappearance occurred on a calm night.
4. All passengers and crew are cleared of terrorist suspicion
5. Pilots are cleared of suicidal tendencies
Conclusions: Need a single thing that can fit into all of the oddities -
Rapid Cabin Depressurization - at altitude could kill everyone on board
in minutes - O2 system could last 15 minutes as best (and likely on for
the pilots at that time). Pilots could have still descended quickly to
an altitude with enough O2. BUT, what if a spark in the O2 system
cause the explosion - this would eliminate the O2 from the masks,
killing everyone on board within 2 minutes. The plane would continuing
flying on George - even executing the preprogrammed turnaround towards
the nearest airport (common practice) but with dead pilots, the plane
would keep flying til flame out."
My own thoughts are that it was either...
1. Poison gas (including, but not limited to Co2 - Carbon Monoxide).
2. Electrical fire that had deadly smoke, fire eventually burned out though.
3. Cabin Depressurization like Frank mentioned above.
4. Terrorist/Lone Wolf Bombings/Other act, also as Frank Mentioned above.
5. A fast paced deadly virus would be possible like Torrent said, possibly, killing all onboard.
6. Pilot Suicide is always possible.
7. Pilot or Hijackers crashed plane into ocean as a political act, religious one, or other.
8. Something else.
