:wtf: Malaysia Airlines Plane "Vanishes" en Route to Beijing with 239 Aboard

[Serious]

it just turned morning... it would have been difficult to find pieces if either thing had happend.

i read than can tell if the plane blew up in the air or if it went down for other reasons depending on how the pieces scattered on the ocean.

My dad's an ex-pilot and he believes it was somehow human error, not a like a bomb or anything, but the pilots not paying attention or something. He expects that something will turn up within the next few hours (like 10 pm PST)....


He also said an investigation will probably show similiaries between the Air France Flight 447 crash a few years ago:

Officials are investigating the identity of four passengers on the missing Malaysia Airlines flight - but have not determined if the plane was downed in an attack, Malaysia's defence and transport minister has said.

Speaking during a news conference in Kuala Lumpur, Hishamuddin Hussein said: "All the four names are with me."

He confirmed that Malaysian investigators had met counterparts from the FBI, and said the investigation was focusing on "the entire passenger manifest".

Meanwhile, US federal safety officials have said a team of experts are heading to Asia to assist in the investigation.

The team includes accident investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board, as well as technical experts from the Federal Aviation Administration and Boeing.

People shouldn't be making jokes at times like this. It would crush me to be waiting at an airport knowing my relatives or my child was on that flight.

Ok, so make another pl—nah you right breh

Man I was on a tiny ass prop plane last month, I swear I thought we were going down. I actually texted a good bye message to family and friends in case it went down. shyt was real scary.

Not trying to scare you. I just hate those little tiny planes.

I'm no expert in the air traffic control system over in Southeast Asia but I know about the one here in the U.S. (I'm an air traffic controller) and the whole fukking system is old as shyt. We're still using ground based radar and chances are that plane went down over water when most planes are usually non-radar meaning they aren't being tracked by anything besides some flight strips. There is GPS but who knows what type of system failure occurred if any.

With that being said this shyt is still EXTREMELY rare. There is a satellite system in the works now but still a few years out I think.

smfh, technology is being used for all the wrong shyt. How u gonna have a dated system for something as important as flight tracking but have a million useless apps on ya cell? shyt is all kinds of dumb

planes usually crash not soon after take off so it would make sense if it went down in the ocean.

I think he's saying that most planes that crash, crash during or shortly after take off.
