Great article in July The Atlantic on why the pilot is most likely behind the disappearance over five years ago. A most likely case scenario has been put forth in the piece. And the little known facts the Malaysian Government may work fiercely to hide and avoid blame in the plane's loss along with its many passengers.

What I find interesting, is the consequence of actually finding the plane. Or, more succinctly put the 'lack of consequence'. All-in-all, finding the plane will merely confirm one of the inferred scenarios, and will provide little beneficial evidence as to 'why'.

I think that article pretty much puts a bow on it.

The pilot did it -- the evidence, even if still circumstantial, is almost overwhelming at this point and no competing theories exist. It had to be him. If he was just done with life, so be it, but sucks he had to take so many innocent people with him before their time.

We might never learn anything more than that, but I think that is clearly what happened.
 
Agree that the pilot did it. Wish we knew how he incapacitated the other pilot on board. Likely locked him out of the cockpit somehow, a la the German Wings suicide pilot.

Stinks that it seems other radar installations should have been able to track the plane but didn't for one reason or another, including a military installation.

It actually amazes me we of all people don't have military satellites picking up virtually everything in the air.

We do. Don't think that it is not known what happened to the plane. Intelligence leadership knows.
I guess the lesson is....if you haven't learned already....is do not believe everything that the strategic communications specialists are dishing up for you. ****, my local city lies about the freaking park benches they are getting ready to replace, and the talking points are regurgitated dutifully and everybody nods their head and smiles. Truth......Truth is good.

A lot of airlines instituted policies that two people (e.g., one of the pilots and one of the flight attendants if one of the pilots needed to use the lav) need to be in the cockpit at the same time at all times in response to the Germanwings murder-suicide.

Seems not to have been the case in this instance.
