Yeah, but the key component to that theory is auto-pilot being engaged. I don't believe auto-pilot would take you below 1000 feet in altitude and remain engaged. The terrain sensors would have been yelping and the system would have disengaged on its own, right?

Yes it would have.

Yeah he mentioned cabin depressurization as well.  And the folks on Payne Stewart's jet weren't incapacitated; they were dead.  :yes:

If I recall correctly, that plane flew on for miles with the cabin and cockpit windows iced over, and when it ran out of gas, it did a nosedive.  One would assume the same would have been the case with some sort of depressurization of the 777.  Only they would have had a hell of a lot more fuel, allowing them to fly much farther before and eventual crash occurred if that was what happened.
Stewarts jet, a Lear 35, flew for 1500 miles and 6 hours before running out of fuel.

Interesting though that an eye witness, among a group of hunters within 3 miles of where the jet went down, heard nothing but saw it hit the ground in a nose first orientation. No explosion, no fire. . .

That's because you left out another no.  No gas.  ;D

Nothing flammable was left on the plane at that point.  It was just a big heavy piece of metal and wires hitting the ground at that point.

Well, new theory that maybe the plane tried to fly to Australia, debris has been spotted so we see if it is the missing plane!!!

Sweet Baby Jeebus Hanging on the cross! WTF are those jackwagons doing?

They release a "transcript" just days after this flight disappeared, and now a month later they release an "official transcript" that changes the last words from this flight?

What's next, an April Fools declaration?  :rant:

April fools assholes. We flew the plane to a tropical paradise to make all you idiots go nuts!  :icon_evil:

A Chinese patrol ship searching for signs of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 in the southern Indian Ocean discovered Saturday a pulse signal with a frequency of 37.5 kHz, state news agency Xinhua reported.
"That is the standard beacon frequency" for both so-called black boxes , , ,

http://www.cnn.com/2014/04/05/world/asia/malaysia-airlines-plane/index.html?hpt=hp_t1

To this point, this now appears to be the only "promising lead" they've come up with since the disappearance of the aircraft.

Not much else transmits on this frequency that I am aware of, so I expect they'll locate it within a few days now.

According to a CNN article, that sound was located at about 25 S latitude and 101 E longitude.   That point is plotted on the below map.  If that's true, the prior search teams were WAY off from where they should have been searching.  Last I heard, they were concentrating on an area about 1,500 miles southwest of Perth.  The location below is clearly quite a distance northwest of Perth.

Seeing how the larger percentage of passengers on that flight were Chinese citizens, and given that the frequency is by and large reserved for emergency signal becons, I'm guessing they're likely hearing something.

Moreover, given the "breakthrough math" used in determining the flight path and projecting the potential crash site location, the area where they've discovered this signal isn't too far from the realm of statistical error margins. . . In my opinion anyway.

I just wish they'd find it and get the data analysis underway. The global airline industry needs to know what the hell happened and enact countermeasures in order to help prevent it from reoccurring. . .
