[QUOTE=Alex141;44193067]Just talking to me dad about this, interesting theory he had, meteor strike. Would explain lack of debris and the randomness of the situation.
Also he reminded me back in 2008 we both flew that exact route. Could have also been the same plane....[/QUOTE]
That is entirely absurd.
It's almost certain that aliens are to blame for this.
They may have found the planes door in the ocean. I guess Aliens don't like doors so they threw it back.
Maybe the captain decided to take them all on a little space journey instead and just fly upwards.

exactly. and since we have the internet readily available at our fingertips it's probably best for people not to post outdated (since disproven) findings
so eerie how something that big can just vanish and not be found for the longest of time.
I remember something about a plane that crashed into a swamp/marsh, and like the entire thing just got consumed by it instantly

Can't really say it IS real or not. Just heard it.
I've heard that the US has mined a ton of data from satellite imagery taken since then and can't find one lick of debris along its actual and potential courses. Even falling into the ocean, there'd be some notable data between things like the previously noted oil slick, floating debris like seating/luggage, SOMETHING. On top of that, the whole 'active cell phones' thing when people call known numbers of those onboard is just curious, meaning that at least some phones are undamaged and within range of cell service.
My best guess on this evidence is that they could have been hijacked and flown to a somewhat remote landing location, but maybe had complications setting up some sort of connection to get it out there they're holding the plane ransom, but don't want to use the passengers' cellphones for fear of being located.
Question is, if anyone has an android phone that is active, google should be capable of picking up their location through either cell tower triangulation or straight up satellite GPS services, so if they haven't said anything the whole 'calling phones and they're ringing' thing could be a case of phones left at home, having number forwarding when one isn't available, phones not destroyed in a horrific accident, or having google phone numbers or something. It's super situational and could be a lot of things at this point

bit more on lost planes: the black box of the air france crash in 2009 didn't get found until atleast [I]two years later[/I]
also, this was the biggest piece of debris they could find I believe.
This is [U][I][B]NOT[/B][/I][/U] a picture of the current disaster, just in case someone scrolls trough the thread without reading

The rest is just...gone. Chances are the entire plane in this accident is already on the bottom.
another (cargo) plane that crashed in 1979 is still missing as well, although it seems all forces have moved out to find the current plane no matter what.
[QUOTE=imacc2009;44195142]Wait, if their phones are actually being called, possibly stating that they are on, but doesn't having a phone turned on fuck up a planes communications and stuff.

Nope. Modern day cellular devices do not interfere with aircraft systems whatsoever. It's an urban myth that's being phased out worldwide. Google will return tonnes of recent (2013/2014) results on mobile phone use being used on airliners both in the US and Europe.

An airliner that departs from normal flight at say 36,000ft will descend toward ground level at a very high speed. If that's an uncontrolled descent with fully open throttles, the aircraft will be pushing mach 1 which in itself will cause structural damage on modern day airliners. Upon hitting the water, it would be like hitting concrete. Not a lot would survive - that tail is surprisingly intact for such an event.

I thought they were only just now working on a plane that accepts signals?
What's strange is just how the ADS-B stopped mid-air, not before it started going down, which implies something catastrophic happened in the air, enough to stop the electrical systems at least.
[editline]10th March 2014[/editline]
This is speculation, please don't take it as fact and get mad.
[QUOTE=imacc2009;44195281]I thought they were only just now working on a plane that accepts signals?[/QUOTE]
It's a long standing subject of debate but in truth, there has never been an aircraft emergency where a mobile phone has been linked to it. Airlines now have the option to allow mobile phone use on their flights - the CAA, FAA etc would not provide that option if it were proven to compromise flight safety.

If you're referring to the data retrieved by FlightRadar24 and the like, this data is sometimes inaccurate and in my opinion shouldn't really be trusted. Even though ADS-B reports its position every 0.5 seconds (or there abouts) FlightRadar24 might only update the position every 30 seconds. That's a lot of lost positional data and an aircraft could easily have departed from normal flight and descended a fair bit in that time.

Couldn't they in theory find any sort of imagery data from the exact time and coordinate the plane went missing, or do they have to tell the satellites where to take pictures, assuming they don't do so automatically?

Unless the satellite just so happened to be overhead taking pictures of the middle of the sea coincidentally then that's not likely. Usually satellite imagery has to be ordered.

Air France Flight 447 hit the water "only" at 280km/h. It just stalled very high up and semi fell / glided to the ocean because they didn't figure out how to get out of the stall.
Good documentary about it:

Can someone catch me up on whats happening?
[QUOTE=Xonax;44195866]Can someone catch me up on whats happening?[/QUOTE]
Big plane disappeared. Can't find it.
it's still creeping me the fact that such relatively large object can just "disappear" off the grid, with few strong countries contributing to the search of the plane for 3 DAYS with not a single sign of it.
chances of survival is small... I hope they can atleast find the remains of the plane. must be hard for the relatives of the people that are on the plane, waiting for so long with no news at all
lets hope they find it soon
First claim of responsibility.
