===========================
Police have found that the information in the flight simulator owned by Malaysia Airlines (MAS) pilot Capt Zaharie Ahmad Shah has been mostly deleted, said Home Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi. “It must be remembered that the police investigation is not aimed at putting the blame on the pilot or pressuring any of his family members but is being conducted to scrutinise everything in detail to find out the cause of the incident (disappearance of a Malaysian airliner). “We’re investigating all possibilities,”
============================
Leaving aside aliens, one of the more bizarre theories is that this was a case of “extraordinary rendition” by the US, which took the aircraft to Diego Garcia and has now flown the aircraft under a false identity elsewhere! This theory does not quite explain where the 239 passengers and crew are except that the “wanted” people have been moved to a US “black prison” somewhere!!
I wonder whether an airctaft can be given a false identity that easily?
===========================
Regarding the time-line it emerges that the course change programmed into the on-board flight computer came 12 minutes before the co-pilot’s last, calm, voice transmission “All right, good night”. So the Goodfellow theory that the westwards turn was due to a fire and an emergency turn back to Langkawi, followed by the pilots becoming overcome by smoke and a flight continuing on auto-pilot is not supported. See the Goodfellow electrical fire theory here and being debunked here. This latest information appears to put the fire theory to rest.
===========================
The only “news” so far today is that an idiot French journalist, Carrie Nooten (France 24) asked Hishammuddin Hussein at the press conference today “Can you confirm that you are PM Najib’s cousin? Are you protected?” A lack of both intelligence and knowledge.
===========================
We are running out of theories. There are no new facts emerging. Harrowing for the relatives and friends of the 239 on board of course – but my thoughts are mainly with the 239. “There but for the grace of God …”
The only detail that emerged during day 11 was that Thai military radar saw a blip shortly after the plane turned around but didn’t reveal it till yesterday “because nobody asked them”.
On the Northern corridor, searches were concentrated in Western China /Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. Near the Southern corridor there was a report of a sighting of an aircraft flying low over the southern Maldives.
No wreckage, no debris, no trace of any survivors.
The lead insurer, Allianz, has started to pay out.
And we now go into Day 12.
