Just thinking out loud.


From what I have read this morning, they are thinking it may have made some turns after the transponders were turned off. Someone was in control.

I think your right on, it's Scenario A, Or B, or a combination of both. I think they had Pilot's help, I think this may turn into a big hijacking/kidnapping scheme for asylum... and I suspect the planes somewhere in the indian ocean as Indian authorities say no plane could have approached the islands identified w/o being seen on radar and not being heard/seen.

This is definitely unprecedented. I hope, pray, these people are alive and ok. That would be an incredible story to tell.
