I reckon they should be looking at land searches as well now.

Satellites picked up "pings" from Malaysia jet, source says...


Reuters) - Communications satellites picked up faint electronic pulses from Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 after it went missing on Saturday, but the signals gave no indication about where the stray jet was heading nor its technical condition, a source close to the investigation said on Thursday.

The "pings" equated to an indication that the aircraft's maintenance troubleshooting systems were ready to communicate with satellites if needed, but no links were opened because Malaysia Airlines and others had not subscribed to the full troubleshooting service, the source said.

Two sources familiar with the investigation into the disappearance of the jet five days ago also confirmed that manufacturers Boeing and Rolls-Royce did not receive any maintenance data from the jet after the point at which its pilots last made contact. Only one engine maintenance update was received during the normal phase of flight, they said, speaking on condition on anonymity.

Boeing and Rolls-Royce declined comment.

==========================================

Rolls-Royce staff in Derby believed to have been monitoring 'mystery' plane.

The Services Operations Room at Rolls-Royce, Derby. It is thought that its staff would have been monitoring the engines of the Malaysia Airlines plane, which has been missing since last Friday.

ROLLS-ROYCE staff in Derby are likely to have been monitoring the engines on a Malaysia Airlines aircraft just before it disappeared, the Derby Telegraph understands.

Flight MH370 from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing has now been missing since last Friday evening.

Mystery still surrounds the fate of the Boeing 777, which disappeared about an hour after take-off with 239 passengers and crew on board.

No distress signal or message was sent and Malaysian authorities said that the last communication from the jet suggested everything was normal on board.

IF, this plane was intercepted, does anyone have any theories on who or why?? would the above be to far fetched as a contributing factor?

Its not impossible that it was taken down by a missile, if it was still in the air when it stopped communicating and was tracked by military radar they may have regarded it as a hostile object and took it out.

[TwistedSisterr]

so you mean this could have been accidentally blown to shit and nobodys fessing up?

[bob351]

Yeah but protocol for hostile objects is to scramble jets to guide whatever it is either out of the airspace or shoot it down. Immediately shooting down whatever comes into your airspace with surface to air missiles would seem kinda retarded.

Both vietnam and malaysia have capable air forces.

does anyone think this has been orchestrated? or am i the only one?

US Officials Have 'Indication' Malaysia Airline Crashed into Indian Ocean

By MARTHA RADDATZ | Good Morning America – 3 minutes 32 seconds ago

U.S. officials have an "indication" the missing Malaysia Airlines jetliner may have crashed in the Indian Ocean and is moving the USS Kidd to the area to begin searching.

It will take another 24 hours to move the ship into position, a senior Pentagon official told ABC News.

"We have an indication the plane went down in the Indian Ocean," the senior official said.

The official initially said there were indications that the plane flew four or five hours after disappearing from radar and that they believe it went into the water. Officials later said the plane likely did not fly four or five hours, but did not specify how long it may have been airborne.

White House spokesman Jay Carney said, “It's my understanding that based on some new information that's not necessarily conclusive, but new information, an additional search area may be opened in the Indian Ocean, and we are consulting with international partners about the appropriate assets to deploy.”

Carney did not specify the nature of the “new information.”

Pentagon officials said that the USS Kidd was being moved at the request of Malaysia and is heading towards an area where the Indian Ocean and the Andaman Sea meet. The ship has helicopters aboard that can scour the area................
