Malaysia airlines flight 370

[heliragedeleted]

Hmmm for the most part I believe wrong. There were 20 senior staff from that company, there was no secret invention or such.
The official statement is:
Freescale says the employees onboard were technical staff travelling to the company's chip facilities for a review. A patent frequently cited by the conspiracy theorists does exist. But rather than being military in nature, it covers a system for optimising the number of circuits on a piece of semi-conductor material. And none of the four people mentioned as being the patent holder were on the plane.

The deepest spot is in the Pacific, the Mariana Trench, and even though it's 36,070 feet deep...it is possible to go there. Regardless of depth todays survey and scanning equipment could detect wreckage.

First you will have to find it.

Helirage,

We are all free to believe what we wish my friend. You want to believe mainstream media...be my guest...I have other sources.

JTF2

And that is why fake news is so powerful, there is a large group of people who believe investigative sources are corrupt and those who are willing to write anything down in order to justify their reason to be on the Earth will write anything that comes to their minds.
I would have rather enjoyed reading those different sources, looking at their data and proof. Usually it all unproven, loose inferences and poor journalism. A load of crap = fake news. The internet is a perfect medium for that, they have a hwhole hoard of readers avid for all types of crap and willing to believe what gives them the most interest, facts who cares about that!

Many questions unanswered thus all kinds of conspiracy theories. The latest one is stowaway attempt theory ... .

It’s a very odd case and I don’t understand how wreckage could elude the authorities although I should point out one thing. There is such a thing as impact occurring at supersonic speed which would destroy the blackbox. In the 2012 crash that killed Mexican singer Jenni Rivera, they actually found the wreckage but the blackbox was destroyed because the aircraft went into a nosedive straight down and hit the ground at 700 mph plus supersonic speed. Black boxes are not designed to survive that and it didn’t so they don’t know what caused the crash. Is it conceivable the same thing happened here with wreckage scattered in smithereens over hundreds and hundreds or thousands of miles of ocean floor? How could such diffuse particles be identified as one time being a plane? In such a situation the passengers would be shark food. Long since eaten.

EB,
If there was a nose dive at supersonic speed, we will find millions of pieces that will float and scattered, then carried away to any shore by now. They found couple of pieces only that they claim to be MH370 parts, ie a flaperon piece. In modern science, the wreckage would have been found by now. There is a piece of me that is siding with JTF2 above due to the fact that it's not publicly exposed as to what happened. My sense tells me that the secret services like Russia know something. The crash of MH17 over Ukraine was the one that strikes me the most - Same aircraft B777 and same airline. What are the odds ? Honestly, I'm still scratching my head about this case ... .

I don't believe in Ghosts personally. Its irrational to me as i consider that once we die, we die, there is nothing afterward. Brains stop, you stop existing.

As for peoples forgetting well... when its accidental (and therefore not cause by malicious intents) i think its bound to happen at one time. 40 years is longer than i existed... (im 34 today...)

When its terrorist etc peoples remember it longer because we prevent it does not happen again. I mean accidents too but sometimes it just happen and nothing that could had been done could had prevent it.

In any case at some point obviously its time to move on. Its sad that those peoples lost there life that day of course, but that was a long time ago.

Very interesting post Patron. I remember that 1979 crash at O´Hare Airport it scared the hell outta me I was a kid. To this day I am still a bit nervous about flying. I saw the MAYDAY episode on that crash. The mechanics tried to cut corners while taking the plane apart for inspection and caused some wear and tear. This caused one of the engines to tear off after take off and the pilots were in a panic and stalled the plane so it crashed into a hangar. There was a new feature on board: a camera that would allow passengers to watch take off and landing. Instead they could see their own impending doom. Needless to say cameras have been banned since (according to the show). To this day it remains the deadliest accidental crash on US soil. The worst crash of all time took place two years earlier when two 747s collided on the Canary Islands resulting in over 500 deaths. One of the casualties was the ex wife of soft core porn filmmaker Russ Meyer.

You are correct Patron. The widely held belief is that the pilots slowed the plane down out of panic cos a plane can fly with one engine missing. However when the engine tore off it severed many essential cables so the pilots did not have great control over the situation. You are also right about the damaged reputation of the DC-10. IT was involved in the deadliest crash in the US and Europe as well ( A Turkish airline over France i believe). In the 1970s the joke was that the DC stood for "DON`T CRASH".

Will passengers ever feel good about the 737-MAX again? I personally prefer Airbus planes,

When the Airbus 320s appeared some 30 years ago, they were the first planes to introduce computer controlled / FBW
flight system, they had few crashes that were very very similar to recent 737 crashes, software issues, where the computer
overrode the pilot inputs, eventually the software was modified and they are one of the most successful planes in the market.
All is forgotten about the Airbus crashes, same thing will happen with the 737s down the road.

One mechanical issue with the 737 crashes that they were using input from one AOG sensor only (Which malfunctioned
according the the reports) , along with the software fix, from now on they will use inputs from the two AOG sensors already
on the plane. (Which was an unacceptable redundancy oversight in the first place). The second AOG sensor input reading was an option worth about $800,000.00 which those airlines did not buy (Unfortunately).

I flew DC-10s not too long after the crashes, nervous during the whole flight, pre-internet days, you didn't know what plane
you would be flying until you got your boarding pass.
