I had a couple come in to my store yesterday , telling me they had heard that there were twenty employees of an energy company on the flight .
Can anyone out there confirm this ?

This is true. They were part of a Texan based firm Freescale.Quote:

That's not quite accurate. It's possible there was a sudden decompression of the cabin which would have quickly disabled the pilots. The plane would have kept on under autopilot until it ran out of fuel. That is a much lesser possibility though because why would the radio signals have gone silent? Can't be totally ruled out until the truth is known though.Quote:

According to these two , this company has applied for patents regarding a new way to pull energy from the earth's magnetic field .
The announcement of which was imminent .
They said they were not surprised that the plane went missing , as they had been reading about the research long before it actually disappeared .
Mind you , they also let on that they believed some of the extra-terrestrial theories , too , so , who knows "
A friend just pointed me in the direction of this article. A rather plausible theory.

It makes more sense than anything else.

so quickly would have destroyed the aircraft in less then 7 hours.
The aircraft made atlest two turns (most likely more) after the first turn at waypoint IGARI.

First they turned at VAMPI/GAVLI (at either of them) then they have had to make another turn
at IGREX to get themselves to somewhere of the two arcs/corridors.

If the pilots were incapacitated so quickly who made/programmed these turns?
Also a plane on fire would surely have been noticed by the vast amount of cargo ships in the area?
Add to that , that the first transponder was turned off as soon as they started out over the water , and the second , about two minutes after the sign off , but not before recording the jet starting to turn to the west at the waypoint .
After it started to deviate from the flight plan , it headed west along a somewhat haphazard track , but generally west .
Then , it went , according to reports , either almost directly north or south .
That's the part that doesn't fit , unless the idea to get far enough west before making the turn , which seems to only fit with going north , from a self preservation point of view , given the alternative means running out of fuel somewhere south of the african continent , where it would be dreadfully hard to find you .
If it was a conscious decision , and given , as BleAviano said , someone had to have programmed those turns , there certainly seems to more going on here than just a cockpit fire .
At today's press conference it was revealed that rather then loading a the standard company route used for MH flights between KUL and PEK,
the one who programmed the route in the FMC, only entered a few waypoints up to the IGARI waypoint and after IAGRI there were no waypoints added.
This is definitely intentional and definitely not normal which means that an accident is less likely at this moment.
Nevermind this, it was a missudnerstanding from my side.Quote:
