#1 If it wasnt such a tragic event we could all freely laugh with great gusto
at the mainstream media regarding the disappearance
of Malaysian flight 370. Every single source, substantiated or not, has been
taken as a great revelation.
It was and continues to be a sad circus of events.

Of those following the serious clues left available there is only one
question to ask. Why does no one mention the Indian Oceans
most advanced and secure air base, the stationary Aircraft Carrier located
south of the southern tip of India called Diego Garcia?

Not a peep. Not even an indication of a US managed military installation
that monitors everything in this war region.
In fact the best old metaphor regarding the lack of reference to this
location is The Silence Is Deafening.

So here it is. As CNN, Fox, MSNBC, CBC, BBC, CTV and all the rest are
prepared to spout off theories without any solid
confirmation, here is one from a source who wishes to remain unidentified
from Northwest BC Canada.
This individual comes from a three decade long background of exposing the
secrets the military forces would rather have
remained secret. He has recently revealed what happened to flight 370. Film
at Eleven.

Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah prepared and practised with his home flight
simulator and had determined the maximum speed and
angle of descent the Boeing 777 could withstand.

As soon as the flight reached the extent of the Malaysian radar capability,
when he knew they would no longer expect to see his
radar signal, he wished the ground crews good night. He then turned off one
tracking device, waited to see if anyone responded
or raised alarm for 15 minutes, then turned off all communication devices.
He locked the cabin door to prevent anyone from
entering after asking his co-pilot to get him a drink or check on a system
outside of the cockpit.

The Captain then immediately turned the plane southwest into a known flight
path and climbed to over 40,000 ft,. the maximum
structural capability of the Boeing 777. He put on the pilot supplied air
mask and kept the plane at over 40,000 ft until he was
certain all the passengers and crew, including his co-pilot, were
asphyxiated.

From his flight simulator experimentation he had already determined the
precise coordinates where he would initiate his next action.
To bring the plane down at the maximum speed and maximum angle of descent to
make a direct hit on the fuel storage tanks at
Diego Garcia.

As he initiated this direct course of action the American Military had not
been concerned with the radar blip of this flight at 40,000
plus feet. They monitor vessels and flights which appear to be a threat or
are invading their space. However they were suddenly
brought to complete attention as their warning systems set off alarms.
The base at Diego Garcia attempted to make radio contact and immediately
dispatched interceptors. Knowing full well this was an
imminent threat, having no time to debate the issue and recognizing the
aircraft was operating in what was basically stealth mode,
uncommunicative, the plane was shot out of the sky.

Becoming aware of which flight it was with the political and potential
military repercussions, the US military ordered a complete
lock down on all communications regarding the event and began dispatching
crews to locate and pick up all the debris.

When the rest of the world became aware the flight was missing the US Navy
offered all their resource to help them look for it in
the South China Sea, then the Gulf of Thailand, Bay of Bengal and the Strait
of Malacca. This kept the worlds attention focused
away from the location they were cleaning up.

US 7th Fleet Commander William Marks told CNN We wait for the Malaysians to
tell us where to search and we go there.

This is the most telling statement of all. Since when does the US take
directions from Malaysia unless they are simply providing
the rope to let them hang themselves.

The most powerful radar systems in the region are at Diego Garcia. A perfect
target for such an attack, one the USA stopped and
one they simply cannot reveal to the world due to the nationality of the
passengers on board. They will continue to assist in the search
while doing everything to ensure no one even mentions Diego Garcia in the
mainstream media.

#2 Curiously enough, Gateway Pundit had a story about the Pentagon blocking travel leave to Diego Garcia. Never been there myself, but DG never seemed like a tourist destination.

#4 Indian Ocean's pretty big. There's 3000 miles or so between Diego Garcia and Perth.

I know all the misinformation specialists are pushing Diego Garcia in a multitude of scenarios for their usual disinformation reasons, I wonder what they're covering for.

#5 Any normal, knowledgeable Rantburger know if the black box(es?) would even be transmitting at this point?

#6 It's claimed 30 days then it's up to the batteries.

It's been 30 days...

#7 I would wonder if 30 days is the 'minimum' time the batteries would last and not a set 'expiration date'.

Or perhaps 30 days until the transmission power starts to seriously degrade...

#8 Tractor beams got 'em almost certainly an no one is saying anything. I blame Massey Ferguson.

#9 I heard/read that the 30 day number was in ideal conditions. Colder and deeper water deteriorates the box faster. IIRC

#10 The French found the black box for AF 447 almost three years after the crash. However, it was not pinging. Not sure how they found it in 20,000' of ocean. Found some surface debris within a week. AF 447 link

#11 I still think they are holed up in the Burma jungle with the opium warlords.
