hhunaeh Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I read that it is extremely rare for a plane to disappear in the stage of the flight this plane was in. It seems most of the crashes occur during takeoff, landing, climbing stages. The plane was supposed to be cruising on auto pilot when it suddenly disappeared and this makes the accident all the more serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hhunaeh Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 So this can happen in other planes ? I think we have to wait for the investigations to complete to reach that conclusion. They are still clueless as to why something like this happened in the supposed safe stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSK Fan Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Yes but if it's problem with such basic thing then I would be worried to get onto plane No, the problem here is that the way the plane disappeared seems very suspicious First of all, the flight will be on auto-pilot with the pilots just checking everything. It is not possible for auto pilot to fail completely and even if it does, pilots have enough time at cruise stage to take over Secondly there are multiple methods of communications available, even if the plane loses all power pilots have still falls backs they can use to communicate and inform about the failure. This plane was there on radar one moment and gone next with no attempts made by pilots to communicate at all And finally the time taken for the plane to completely disappear without any communication seems to be very less. Almost like the plane might have hit something or exploded in some other way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StriKe Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 An extraordinary story has just emerged from Italy in relation to missing flight MH 370. Luigi Maraldi, 37, from Cesena, was named as one of the passengers on board the plane. However, reports in Italy have confirmed that he was NOT on board and that he had reported his passport stolen last August. Mr Maraldi's parents have spoken to him in Thailand and he is 'fine', news agency ANSA reports. The revelation suggests that one of the 227 passengers on board the missing flight was using a stolen passport. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/missing-malaysia-airlines-flight-live-3219331#ixzz2vO8g7Jyn Follow us: @DailyMirror on Twitter | DailyMirror on Facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raghav_12 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Based on these couple of stolen passports story, terrorism angle is being insinuated which very much seems possible. There was no distress signal and no other issue reported. Something happening to craft at that height and that sudden is inexplicable otherwise.
