[breaking] Malaysian Airlines loses contact with Beijing-bound flight, 239 on board

FWIW, $24M RM so approx 7.3M USD

 

No, the figure was US$. It was $77M in Malaysian currency.

 

... and people complain about the president and our congress's salaries

 

Malaysia plane relatives dragged from news conference



Frustration with the search for missing flight MH370 boiled over into chaotic scenes as Chinese relatives were dragged away from journalists.

They were attempting to speak to Chinese journalists outside the daily press conference in Kuala Lumpur.

A BBC reporter was pushed away from the relatives, who were carrying banners criticising the handling of the case.

Teams from 26 countries are trying to find flight MH370, which went missing on 8 March with 239 people on board.

One of the relatives, a middle-aged woman, cried: "They give different messages every day! Where's the flight now? Find our relatives! Find the aircraft!"

Checked out the Hishammuddin Hussein's wiki page. The guy in charge of the search. Apparently he's the cousin of the prime minister. He has held every gov't job out there. For someone with so much administrative experience, he's very unpolished and comes across like a disorganized idiot.

 

Welcome to Malaysia.

 

Come on guys I want some more crazy stuff; you have a little new material to argue theories/impossibilities on. Where is heyp?

 

My opinion:

It was soft-landed by the loony tunes person(s) at the controls and sank pretty much intact to the bottom of the Indian Ocean. No one will ever find it before the black box quits pinging. It will be like searching for the Titanic and probably worse than that search when all is said and done. At least with the Titanic, they had a narrower grid of where to look based on some data. They have no clue here. And, we will never, ever know what happened.

 

Also, for no reason whatsoever, your dog will die.

 

I don't have a dog. Cue the X-Files music.

 

Thats what they want you to think.

 

Or, maybe my new dog was on the plane and I didn't know it yet?

 

Did not know.

 

I have a new dog. I don't think she'll be flying anytime soon.

 

I bet it's at Diego Garcia like the link earlier suggested. If DG is a space shuttle emergency landing site.. it can most likely land a 777. There were some high value target(s) on that plane. If it was staged by nefarious people in our govt (not putting it past them with the current climate) then DG would be already highly controlled and could be used clandestinely. They put out all the disinformation early on to get people to search everywhere but there. Now it's too late and it's probably repainted and already somewhere else. /tinfoil

if it isn't in the bottom of the ocean.. someone pulled off the heist of the century. The only explanation would be that it was state sponsored. Don't think some jihadis could pull it off even with help. Iran maybe. I'm wishing it did land somewhere and those people are still alive but the thought of someone successfully hijacking a 777 w/ a couple hundred people onboard is scary in itself.

 

Good grief.

 

This is just one of the craziest things that has happened in a long time -- a true mystery... a giant 777 just gone.

 

Infowars called and they want you back on their site.
