The Mystery of Missing Malaysia Airlines 370

[Monoriu]

Australia found the plane. Hopefully this can all go away now.

They found something.  We don't know if that's the plane yet.

Decades later, when we finally have pilot-less planes, they'll point to this incident as a justification to get rid of the pilots.

If it isn't the Air Malaysia plane, I'm hoping it is Amelia Earhart's.

Found on Nikumaroro by a random British guy already.

Well crap, what other things do we hope to finally find in the ocean? The long elusive giant squid, godzilla, or  ?

Hopefully it is one of those.

My post was a reference to a prior thread we had where TIGHAR came up.  Those are they guys who think AE crashed on Nikumaroro/Gardner and survived for a short while as a castaway.  Meanwhile according to this theory her Lockheed Electra was broken up by heavy surf and slid down the reef slope into the deep.  Their forum is publicly viewable @ tighar.org and I lurk there because, while I've never come around to their theory, it's an interesting collection of folks with a lot of aviation knowledge between them (some of it professional).

Incidentally I've seen this posted all over the place but not here:

Seems plausible.

Silly Shielbh.  It was a black hole wut dunnit.

Somebody needs a remedial science lesson.

Mary Schiavo, a former Inspector General for the U.S. Department of Transportation, said, "A small black hole would suck in our entire universe, so we know it's not that."

Maybe we are in a small black hole?

Seems plausible.

I've seen this scenario posted before (in fact, soon after the realization that the plane had changed course), and still think it the most plausible.

[Berkut]

Saw something that debunked that...but I forget where.

Better than having him do the baggage handling.
