My thoughts and prayers go out to the people and family members of flight MH370, but with that said anybody got any half-baked theories as to what the heck happened to that plane?
Alien abduction, Bermuda Triangle-type thing or maybe terrorists...?
Hard to believe a plane load of people can just vanish into the ether without a trace.
And, very sad for the friends and rels on that flight. If they don't find anything it may haunt them forever. I hope they eventually find some peace with it and that the mystery is resolved although the longer it goes on with no concrete evidence of what happened the harder that will be.

Not really a laughing matter, but I'm thinking a government/supernatural conspiracy-thing which will be the subject for my next script "A Cabin in the Plane". Or maybe not.
All kidding aside it'd be an interesting topic for a OWC.
I think it has crashed into the sea and sunk. I imagine it should be possible for a plane to hit the sea at such an angle and speed it simply sinks rather than smashes to pieces.
I think Rende's point is that we do not the knowledge to make anything more than a guess regarding what happened. Saying, "I think it was the flight crew," because we can't guess anything else is bullshit.
We might as well try and guess what happened to Atlantis or the Roanoke Colony.
Not gonna fire up any conspiracy theories, I just find it hard to believe that Boeing would build such a sophisticated airplane and still leave the ability of th pilots to manually turn off the transponders. Just about every new car you could buy today either has GPS or Lojack and could be found instantly... And they don't cost $265 million...
I don't see what's wrong with speculating, it's just a writing website for crying out loud, not the New York Times. And if someone is not interested in the thread, why on God's green earth bother posting to say that?
Guessing is NOT the same as speculating based on available evidence.
We know the flight was in the air(or on the ground and powered up) for at least 7.5 hours after it turned the transponder off. That makes pilot suicide unlikely...wouldn't they just take it down quickly if they were committing suicide like the Egypt Airlines did?
What about an accident or malfunction such as a fire? It can't be ruled out, but circumstances are somewhat against that. Evidence suggests the new course was entered into the computer before the last pilot transmission, which gave no hint of trouble. And the plane seems to have taken a very deliberate new course.
Also, if the plane malfunctioned, how likely was it that it remained airborne for 7.5 hours after that, with no communication to the ground?
People say it could not have flown over any of the northern countries because radar would have picked it up. However, we KNOW for a fact it flew back over Malaysia and no one noticed at the time. Does Burma have a more diligent radar detection response than Malaysia? It seems to me that the military tends to ignore commercial flights as being normal.
So there are problems with every theory. Which makes it interesting. I see no reason not to speculate a little.
