MH370: Deliberate action confirms Malaysia PM – but where is it?

The Malaysian PM is holding a Press Conference – the first he is addressing since the plane vanished where he will make a short statement but will not take questions.

The Prime Minister upheld perceptions of Malaysian officialdom. The press conference started just 50 minutes late

  • Turn back confirmed.
  • Based on satellite , highly certain that ACARS communication was first switched off
  • Near handover to Vietnam control, transponders were switched off.
  • Deliberate action by someone on the plane – all possibilities being considered.
  • Last satellite communication was on 0811 on 8th March (7 hours after the last normal communication)
  • Still calculating how much further it could have flown
  • Could have been on Northern or Southern corridor
  • Likely to be in Corridor Along Thailand-Kazakhstan route or Indonesia-South India
  • Ending Search in South China Sea, Focusing on New Corridors
  • All aboard to be investigated

One of the pilots or someone else with flying experience hijacked the plane.

We don’t know who. 

We don’t know why

We don’t know where the plane is now (but it is not in the South China Sea).
