[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1113564, member: 18945"] I think it is either crashed into the mountains of Malaysia or is west of the Malay peninsula and went down in the Straits of Malacca. Today's reports say the Malaysian military tracked it on radar going the opposite direction (west) that was originally thought, meaning it turned around at some point over the China Sea, turned off it's transponder and traveled west for about an hour after the last transponder signal. All airliners have a communication device called ACRS that is linked to the maintenance dept of the planes home base. This is different than the transponder. It allows the maint people on the ground see what is happening to the engines, hydraulic systems, and a few other things on board the plane in real time. Malaysian Air has been less than forthcoming about when that signal stopped or if it did stop. Boeing has been reluctant to comment on what communications devices that particular plane had as well. [i]Asked to detail the communications devices aboard the missing jet, Boeing spokesman Doug Alder said, "It's not appropriate for us to discuss that right now."[/i] Some really odd things about that flight too. Stolen passports zero communication no debris 20 employees of a high tech chip company on one plane phones still ringing but no one locating the phones What else is odd? [/QUOTE]
