A Chinese family successfully rang the mobile phone of a passenger on board Malaysia Airlines plane MH370 which is still missing after it lost contact with the ground on Saturday.
A video clip of a man dialing the number of his elder brother was shown on Beijing Television's news bulletin. The call got connected, but no one picked up.
The man, who did not give his name, spoke to reporters at a Malaysia Airlines briefing in Beijing. He claimed that he made a total of three calls, but no one answered.
Desperate family members have asked Malaysia Airlines to use satellite technology to pick up the mobile phone signals of passengers before their phones run out of batteries.
Somebody compared getting in a car to the dangers of a flight. I guess that is correct on some base level. But let me tell you something. If my engine dies in my car and I"m out in the middle of nowhere or in light traffic, all I have to do is pull over. If a plane engine goes to dirt for whatever reason while you are in the sky, let's just say your options are few if any for getting out of that little snafu alive. There's risk and then there's relative risk.
eh ive been in a car crash black ice and I HAD no control of my car as it veered off the side of teh road into a pond in the dead of winter.
the odds of bewing in a plane crash and dying are so slim, it just sucks because that slim chance odds of ou getting out alive are slim, while a car crash you have a higher chance especially if your not on the highway
The latest news on this is that the plane was hijacked by a skilled pilot
seems like it. Flew upto 45,000 ft when the max ceiling on a triple 7 is 41,300 feet. They probably wanted to knock the passengers out, drop back down to normal altitude and continue on with whatever they were doing.
Whoever did that though, isn't very skilled. Nearing that ceiling height puts the plane in a VERY compromising position where flight controls are pretty much nullified and the plane can break apart.
They were saying how the rate of descent from that point on was like 40,000ft/min which is pretty much a nose down attitude.
whoever was at the controls could've even flown to the southern most region of the indian ocean and crash the plane so that no one would be able to find anything.
soo many questions, so little answers and its been a week.
Do you think this was one of the pilots or do you think it was a terrorist? I figured that if someone had the intent of crashing the plane, they would have dropped it quickly instead of flying for a few more hours. CNN is talking about how skilled this person had to be so I personally think it was one of the original pilots. An average person wouldn't have the knowledge of how to fly/disable a 777 and with the way they are looking into everyone's background that was on board, they should have known by now if anyone else on board had those skills.
