What's your Flight 370 conspiracy theory?

[wysiwyg]

Seriously though, I think this whole thing is absolutely fascinating and TBH, I'm kinda looking forward to the Air Crash Investigations show they do on it. I have no real theory about it really. The plane could be anywhere. Re the black boxes, they would be transmitting, but you have to be near the plane to be able to detect it I would have thought. I do hope that because they haven't found anything yet, that there is a tiny, tiny chance of them being found OK.

I agree, I was talking about it with DH - about how it is possible to lose something the size of a plane, he was saying he had watched some show about aeroplanes disappearing in the Bermuda Triangle, and apparently there is to do with a fault line in the earths crust where some gas bubbles up and causes all debris and whole planes to sink rapidly and be drawn into the fault line itself, and therefore never ever be discovered. Is called the Methane Bubbling effect apparently and on a site I was looking at it also said

"And if some really large bubbles of methane gas were to rise in the atmosphere and then get sucked into the engines of a jet, they could make a nasty explosion"

So Methane Bubbles causing the plane to crash and then sinking/disappearing the debris - is my theory. (Would think the area round there must have a few fault lines, underground volcanoes etc?)

It took them 2 years to find the Air France plane that went down near Brazil.
The ocean is a big place and a plane isn't very large

The thing with the passports freaks me out. You would think that with the ease of running checks on passport number through interpol that ll passports would be run through.
TBH I think it's probably just a co-incidence that the fake passport guys happened to be on a plane that crashed. I hope they can identify them so their families don't spend forever wondering where they are

I was reading up on it today and the consensus is that black boxes should be scrapped. There was a plane that went down in the sea three years ago near France and it took them two years to recover the black box and by then, it was so damaged that they couldn't get anything from it. They have the technology to go live with pilots for each flight and that's what they should be doing.

I feel so sad about it and am trying to not get too involved in it. I keep hoping that somehow the plane with passengers safe will turn up. DH said that with the phones that are ringing, surely one has the find my iPhone app on it to track it! I just hope authorities are in fact doing everything they can and following every suggestion to track this plane down.

I am sticking with the above.
