3. This plane was hijacked to Afghanistan and
   the passengers were kept in different places
   without even water to drink and no food and
   this is done by the terrorists of that country.
   I doubt whether any one still alive and later
   the plane was dismantled into pieces and re-
   painted to show a different face and not to
   show any identity of Malaysian Airlines. I
   request the authorities to do a thorough search
   in Afghanistan with the help of the government

4. My sister recently traveled from Sri Lanka where she said that a tv news channel was reporting finding aircraft debris on one of its beaches ….has this been verified ?

   1. I think nobody has given the order to check the provenience of those objects.

5. You people are so dumb. Why do think we have heard so little from Boeing and the US government?????

   Reply to Peter Hanley

   1. Agree totally, they are searching in the wrong place. US and Boeing have something to hide.
      It was heading towards Diego Garcia and the search is in the opposite direction because of pings.So much time has passed since it vanished that no floating debris would be found.
      A fisherman, sailor and oil rig worker have all seen the plane on the night in question.
      Shot down I suspect or in custody where no one is allowed. Hmm DG.

6. I think this plane could be in Indian ocean down there. if the World could come together as one and we could win this war of searching.

7. obviously the second link I posted was not mine, after I discovered and shared that Tomnod map, other people worked on that image to enhance it and I choose the best one. But many other people are sharing my view and enhanced the map in various ways.
   I could not send my own enhanced pics due to the fact this form does not allow attachments, so I choose to send you a link to pictures enhanced by a third person, who I thank for his work an support for this theory, which is shared by a lot of people amongst the “armchair hunters” who, during two months (and even more ) supported this theory based on the Tomnod satellite image. I don’t ward rewards or claim to be the first to have discovered the “object”, but if you browse through old Tomnod facebook page’s posts, you can find easily my comments and posts. Thanks to all the people from Australia, Usa and other Countries for their support, in particular, amongst them , Clint Myles , Robert Leslie Williams , Tina Webber from Australia, and Christine Worsley Kallen , Lori Gerthoffer from USA, Claus Dastrup from Scandinavia and all the other “armchair searchers”whose posts have been, and are still being, an inspiration to stick to my idea.

   1. the airplane is some km south of Cor Nicobar island, aligned to the landing strip of the island’s airport

8. I have already sent to you the Tomnod map where I found an object resembling a stuck airplane on the reefs south of Cor Nicobare islands. The old link to the Tomnod map is https://seniorplanet.org//www.tomnod.com/nod/challenge/mh370_indian_ocean/map/545810 but they seem to have changed link to it ( I have it, though). More enhanced photos of the same object? Here: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=772808606062557&set=gm.289085401246227&type=1

   It is more than two months that I keep posting that map on the Tomnod Facebook page, I wrote to Richard Quest by Twitter, I wrote to the JAAC in Australia, I wrote to BBC and CNN, to no avail. Please , could you send there someone with just a normal patrol boat? the waters are shallow……If you wish I have other enhanced photos of that object, and I have researched if during the WWII some bomber went down in that area, with no results. Also, the object is not visible in Google Earth ( mapping obtained years or months ago) so it should be something which has crash-landed recently.

9. If MH 370 did not crash in the ocean. There should be search of all serial numbers of any electronics and passports carried by the passengers and crew members and serial numbers of the aircraft parts such as electronic components in the black market. If you find one of this items you can prove the plane did not crash in the Indian Ocean. Good luck try Iran and Yemen black market..

10. Instead of searching around Australia, those who are involved in the search should consider the sea route between the Maldives and Yemen/iran

    Reply to sam

11. I think that once the pilots said good night to the ground control and switched the guidance on auto pilot mode and either relaxed or had left to the rear part of the plane. Making use of the opportunity made their way into the cockpit and disabled the communication equipment, lowered the altitude to elude radar detection and headed for west Asia like Yemen, Iran or Afghanistan. I have this suspicion because some people in one of the islands of Maldives had sighted a very low flying plane with colors resembling Malaysian Airlines, passing that island early the next morning.
    I suspect the two Iranians who went aboard on fake passports are trained pilots who know about that type of Boeing airplanes. According to me three of these possibilities are there:
    1. The plane had fallen into the sea between
    the Maldives and Yemen/Iran, having run
    out of fuel,
    2. landed in Yemen to be used for terrorist
    activities,
    3. landed in Iran or Afghanistan to be
    converted into a flying bomb against
    western targets.

13. What ever happened to Australia’s over the horizon radar and why did it not track this aircraft, even if in international waters.

14. Why Authorities are not searching/crosschecking the Air-ports???

    Reply to ngawang lhendup

15. Stop wasting time and just ask the US government where the aircraft is or where they brought it down.

    Reply to Peter Hanley

16. Given many flights leaving Australia for the UAE and similar destinations cross the Indian Ocean and the suspected flight path of MH370 is it possible that on board radar could have detected the missing aeroplane?

    Reply to Peter5044

17. I suspect the terrorist had hijacked the plane
    to Afghanistan and also as per the Indian
    Newspaper I read that the passengers were
    divided into seven sections and kept in diffe-
    rent places without water and food. Why not the authorities investigate about this from
    Afghanistan government, may be Taliban
    terrorists have organized this, perhaps this
    may be true. Hope the authorities will do
    something and get the passengers released.

    1. We need to do the detectives work here.Remote control electronic was installed into this B777,it was rigged and warplanes have been used that night to abduct the plane,the cargo and the pax. Ordinance has been fired (warning shot or meant to kill) that Oil rigger observed the fireworks in the sky.

18. As l have quite a bit of time free per day, l too am as interested in locating this missing plane, as is many other people around the world, just to find the causes as to why it just disappeared, and therefore perhaps make it possible that this should never happen again.
    I feel very strongly for those families who are waiting to hear what has happened to their loved ones!

19. I HAVE ALREADY PUT my comments since 23rd March, three million US Dollars , to name who can help dig out solid information from sources.

    Second choice which I asked Paul the Octopus of the scenarios, the Octopus is on the net,

    Third i have put all my analysis one of them is the Malaysian Government has approached United Nations direct, presented the UN with a suggestion of a tracking system for aeroplanes, when UN has already been contacted the Malaysian authorities know already the plane could have been flown to an unknown location, also believing the plane is somewhere but the passengers are not.
    The scenario for no.3 will be : the passengers are all sold out for human organs all deceased by now

    or the torture form of drugging the passengers giving them sedatives and making them brain washed with different Identities.

    either or I am willing to contribute sirs and madam given such a solid chance. first let me give you the details here…….

    The search is of no use, the Hung Moe Kwais are confident in Australia that the plane is not in Bay of Bengal, then they know the plane is somewhere
    of the last two possible scenarios:

    a) if plane is hijacked it is already worth millions of dollars y to destroy it, the contents are worth much more

    b) the plane could have been shot down by missiles by the jet fighters entering Vietnam brought to the mountains and shattered in the tiniest pieces so no debris can be located, the blast so intense the contents of the plane turn to ashes with the new rocket.missiles hitting the plane,

    these are the following logic , if no debris it is somewhere okay, for that three million US bucks are required my friends,

    thank you for tuning in.

20. Very whimsical proposal. They don’t provide all volunteers for searching with geographical coordinates, and they force volunteers to search where they want to be searched. I want to help searching a specific area that I have on my mind, but they don’t let me go there, neither let me know where I am searching.

23. We need satellite images for 8th march along the possible route taken by the MH370

    Reply to sm

    1. If we know the flight path, we can pinpoint on the images the rough route of MH370 and finally come to a conclusion. Anyone agree?

       Reply to LEPrecon

       1. Satellite imagery is done by satellites that ‘fly’ over the earth, not those that are geo-stationary way way further (24km above the earth) so it is not possible to see a map of the earth at a given ‘time’. A full map of the earth takes maybe a full week to create, so if you are lucky you may have a few images of the area where the plane was flying, but at best that would give you 2-3 data points of the entire flight path.

24. I waited over an hour for a map to download…..never receiving such was a bit irritating.

25. As seen on bbc & CNN plane may got freezes,transformed into an ice object,cruising at high speed,hit ocean,and maybe now lying at the bottom of ocean.Hence underwater search should be enhanced at possible spots.

26. I have used TOMNOD for quite a few hours and although the concept is good it is not very encouraging to use. The maps are identified by numbers so you have no idea where you are searching. Often it is the South China Sea or even LAND ! Then when you do find something of interest to tag it increments your tag count but doesn’t save a copy. So no going back unless you remember their map number or scan the display image. Also no recognition of whether your tag is useful. It’s interesting but after a time demoralising.

    Reply to John

    1. What you have told is true. I too discontinued the search for the same reasons.

       Reply to thirusingh

27. The article is interesting — but where’s the link to the satellite imaging company? Why publish an article telling people they can help and not post a link? Makes no sense….
