This would have catapulted the hapless 777 out of the earths atmosphere and on a spinning journey towards Naboo 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electric Avenue Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 In all seriousness , this is odd indeed. My bet is it's in Iran parked up somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest av1 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I've just saw a interview with Vincent Tan, his theory is that the gods took the plane in disgust that it wasn't red. Sounds plausible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 So my question remains unanswered, could it have been hijacked and flown to somewhere like Iran? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eames Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 So my question remains unanswered, could it have been hijacked and flown to somewhere like Iran? Unlikely. It wouldn't have had enough fuel on board to make the extra distance. I think someone is trying to make a really shit version of "Moonraker" and is nicking Jumbos.

thetrees Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 So my question remains unanswered, could it have been hijacked and flown to somewhere like Iran? Yes, sort of, but why? Malaysia is a fellow Islamic country. The aircraft was en route to Beijing, with a high proportion of Chinese nationals on board. Iran enjoys very good relations with China Fuel wise, more than likely enough to reach Tehran. Of course, to hijack an aircraft you need access to the flight deck, which isn't easy.

My question was more a practical one than political. It wouldn't make much sense. But then not much does about this. The silence is deafening.
