My thoughts and prayers go out to the relatives and friends as it doesn't look like the plane landed in southern China as once thought from mechanical failure.
There are conflicting reports when the plane simply vanished from radar - Malaysian authorities claim it was few hours , Vietnamese flight control maintained they they made contact 1min into Vietnamese airspace- Another jet travelling to Japan and 30mins infront of the missing plane was asked to attempt contact with the Malaysian airliner however the response was muffled and it did not sound like the cockpit was in trouble - Ships in the area might have been able to pick up the short frequency and investigations are continuing.
The Vietnamese Airforce have seen oil slicks around 12km -15km long in the waters off the coast and this is usually what appears when a jet liner goes down however there is confusion whether this is correct as cargo ships are known to dump "Bad oil" contaminated oil not good to use in international waters.
It seems two passengers on board an Austrian and Italian citizen was on the plane however reports from their consular staff have determined that both passports were reported stolen in Thailand and both people are fine and well back home.
There's also reports of another 2 fake passport holders on board that may lead investigators to believe that this may be a terrorist hijacking attempt gone wrong.
Thoughts guys?
