Could this just be a massive stunt by David Blaine? He's just going to appear next week, and pull the plane out of his ass?

Apparently that wasn't confirmed as yet. May have been a hoax.

So apple and phone companies can track us everywhere we go.
But an entire plane can just disappear.

This is such a weird story.

That may prove the stories about phones allegedly dialling out. If that were the case, surely someone could use the 'find my phone' service, or the telcos could've tracked them by now.

That just leaves the option that A) the plane has crashed and all phones are destroyed, or B) the hijacker has switched off/destroyed all of the mobile phones to prevent tracking.

its just crazy enough to work!

Maybe he wanted the plan, and not the passengers. Perhaps he's landed, dropped the passengers off somewhere (under guard/locked up or something) and is preparing the plane for an attack?

Actually, a thought just occurred to me.. Are these planes capable of flying into the depths of space? Or will the simply break up/compress? Could it be floating in orbit (all dead on board of course)?

Maybe I didn't get enough sleep last night.

That first episode of Fringe springs to mind. Could have been snatched right out of the sky.
Another theory says the Chinese or North Koreans shot it down.
To what end I dunno.

Think that has something to do with the air getting thinner the higher you go and the lack of air stopping the combustion with the fuel. And you have to be going a few thousand miles an hour. I think.

Between having the entire world looking for it and dealing with the insane degrees of upkeep and secrecy involved in having a stolen plane, I'd have to think that it makes more sense to steal a big commuter jet because you want the people than because you want the plane. Human beings are pretty good, as far as commodities go. High value, not a lot of market fluctuation.

But at the same time, I'm sure they were counting on people just shrugging their shoulders and assuming it crashed, so...

that's what that northern flight corridor has me thinking too, though iran is at the very outer edge of possible distance the plane could've traveled. risky.

however...

Quote:
The latest data and calculations provided by Malaysian officials show an arc of places the aircraft could have traveled. Because the northern reaches of the arc include some tightly guarded airspace over India, Pakistan and U.S. installations in Afghanistan, U.S. authorities believe it more likely the aircraft crashed south of India into waters outside the reach of radar, one U.S. official said.

Had it flown farther north, it would likely have been detected by radar, the official said.

The thing is, if it was hijacked and landed, someone would have made some demands by now, right?
