Anyone see the Horizon Programme last night?

www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b047czkj/horizon-20132014-11-where-is-flight-mh370

Didn't realise it was on/football dominating this household at the moment but Horizon had good access to Inmarsat apparently.

[AnyaKnowIt]

Just watching it on iplayer now

[AnyaKnowIt]

Sky news are saying that the plane was on auto pilot

[whoneedstosleep]

I've just read that Anya. So it was set to auto pilot on an unknown route.
It is just bizarre now, and no more closure for those poor families.

'MH370 was under control, probably until the very end': Emirates CEO Sir Tim Clark reveals doubts over official view of missing airliner's fate
Sir Tim Clark questions current thinking about the fate of flight MH370
Sir Tim said if the jet crashed into the ocean then wreckage would be found
He said the somebody took control of the aircraft before it vanished
...
He said: 'My own view is that probably control was taken of that airplane. It's anybody's guess who did what. We need to know who was on the plane in the detail that obviously some people do know. We need to know what was in the hold of the aircraft. And we need to continue to press all those who were involved in the analysis of what happened for more information.

'I do not subscribe to the view that the Boeing 777, which is one of the most advanced in the world and has the most advanced communication platforms, needs to be improved with the introduction of some kind of additional tracking system. MH 370 should never have been allowed to enter a non-trackable situation.'

Sir Tim said it would be unlikely that the aircraft's pilots would have been able to disable all the jet's tracking equipment."

The lack of wreckage still makes me think something fishy is going on. Surely, after 6 months something would be spotted .

[YonicScrewdriver]

They aren't looking for surface wreckage now, meglet - just under the sea. It's a huge huge search area. Like looking for a dead moth in a field of wheat, when the wind can blow the moth around.

[mildlyacquiescent]

Air Crash Investigation have released an episode!

Amazing that it has been a whole year

Debris washed up on the Indian Ocean island of Reunion consistent with a part of Boeing 777 wing - Mh370 only unaccounted for 777 in the world

[MyBeloved]

I hope this is it as I am sure the loved ones of those lost souls will want some sort of closure.

If it was a suicide murder on the part of the pilot....well, just how unbelievably awful

Seems there could have been plane - related stuff washing up months ago but it's been burned.

Although the piece of wing/flapper on has arrived in Toulouse, analysis won't begin till Wednesday apparently

[member]

Flapper on confirmed as being from a Boeing 777.

Plane door reportedly washed up on Reunion today; Malaysians want searches for wreckage around island.

[SideOrderofChips]

They're not sure now its a door.

[member]

Oh, there haven't been any pictures which Inthought may have been due to the aircraft livery being visible or something.

The conspiracy theorists are in overdrive as to how "convenient" finding two pieces in a few days is not to mention how a volcano has become active on the island

Piece of plastic which may be porthole window washed up on reunion

Confirmed flapper on from MH 370

French have confirmed "with certainty" flaperon from mh370. Prev confirmation issued via Malaysia.

2 year anniversary since MH370 disappeared. A couple of pieces of suspected aircraft wreckage have been found in Reunion and Mozambique in the last week or so & have yet to be analysed in Oz.

[Imbluedabadee]

Sorry to resurrect this zombie thread but I read some new reports that several experts have agreed that the only explanation now is that the pilot depressurised the cabin to kill everyone then flew over his home town before going out to a remote location to commit suicide. I couldn't find any other threads about it so I wondered if anyone else had heard this?

More likely to be a Russian action, apparently: www.theguardian.com/world/2018/may/24/qa-mh17-investigation-russian-missile-aircraft-ukraine

[GarlicGrace]

I had the definite impression from British media that MH370 was shot down by a Russian missile. Looking further afield, this doesn't seem so clear but Malaysia will be releasing a full report at the end of this month.

Ocean Infinity's continuing the search for wreckage, even though the official search has been called off.
