Just for everyone's info: Light 370 is now 318.

James Hausman seems to be on target. SOMALIA, one of the airports there. They are PIRATES! They now have over 200 passports at their disposal, a 777-200 that has been repainted already, and over 200 hostages for sale. The two iranians may just be part of the scheme to take the blame for the highjacking so that the pilots may be innocent and return to Malaysia to their families, with some reward. My first guess was also Somalia then Socotra. Without wreckage near Malaysia and 2 passangers with false passports, and the radar contact interrupted, and the signals from the motor continuing, the flight was headed to a far off place. The plane didn't have to fly low for the whole trip, only near India and the Maldives after which it could fly higher to gain distance. In the end, the satellites may reveal the route as the flight simulator is revealing the pilots' preparations for the landing. Iran has an airport also in the south near the coast,

The bookies in the UK soon may post the airports with the latest odds.

Correction of previous comment: Socotra Island (SCT) international airport (Yemen) has a 3,300 meter asphalt landing field which is over 10,00 feet. 8,100 feet is the required distance to land for the B777-200. Flight MH 730 would have been able to land there. Most of the flight across the Indian Ocean could have been at a higher altitudes to gain distance and go undetected while the world's attention was focused on (or distracted to) the area where the plane went off the radar. There existed the risk that the info from the motor blips would be relayed to the searching parties but such coordination didn't exists so the gamble by the hijackers was successful. My guess is that there were others on the flight to assist the hijackers get the cell phones or even fly the plane! After landing, the empty plane either was hidden or was refueled and flown to a nearby airstrip to be hidden. My guess/wish is that the passengers may be alive on the beautiful island. The plane may be repainted sim

Socolta Island (SCT) international airport (Yeman) has a 3,300 meter asphalt landing field which is over 10,00 feet. 8,100 feet is the required distance to land for the B777-200. Most of the flight could have been at a higher altitudes to gain distance while the world's attention was focused on or distracted to where the plane seemed to go off the radar. The risk was that the info from the motor bips would be relayed to the searching parties but such coordination didn't exists so the gamble by the hijackers was a good one. There must have been others on the flight to assist the hijackers get the cell phones or even fly the plane. After landing, the empty plane either was hidden or flew off empty to a nearby place to be hidden. The passengers are probably well secured on the beautiful island. My guess the plane will be repainted similar to a US airline and used as a long ranged bomber. I hope the first part of the theory is correct so the passengers are safe. The second part is the scary

My money is on a Somalia landing.

Thanks Sparkie,

Would little cameras stategically placed around the outside of the plane be use? Say one by the front landing gear, others showing the positions of the landing gears under the wings, others along the fuselage monitoring the engines. Does a pilot have to rely on the tower or a crew member to see a fire in an engine

How does the TSA guess the exact measurements of employees yet to be hired for this big order? What happens to the money that older employees pay for the replacement uniforms? If a uniform costs one grand, how much is the replacement amount the older workers pay apart from the TSA allowance? Expenses incurred by employees for uniforms are tax deductible, I guess the workers are informed of this. How many days of work is needed to cover the cost of a uniform? HAVE 100% of the uniform made in Tennessee or other US factory. Putting more Americans to work=more taxes paid. The company should be able to do this and still make a sufficient profit. Free enterprise OK, but we also have to expand work opportunities at home, (unions be willing.)
