Monday’s 449-page report offered little to solve modern aviation’s biggest
mystery -- and stopped short of apportioning specific blame. There’s nothing to
suggest the plane was evading radar, or evidence of behavioral changes in the
crew, it said. Significant parts of the aircraft’s power system, including the
autopilot function, were probably working throughout the flight, the report
said.

“We are unable to determine with any certainty the reasons that the aircraft
diverted from its filed planned route,” Kok Soo Chon, chief inspector of the
MH370 investigation team, told reporters in Putrajaya, outside Kuala Lumpur.
“The possibility of intervention by a third party cannot be excluded.”

Without the help of cockpit data recorders, search teams could only guess what
happened in the flight’s final moments. Analysis by the Australian government
suggested MH370 ran out of fuel before plummeting -- at as much as 25,000 feet a
minute -- into the water. Other investigators speculated that a person was at
the controls until the very end, gliding the plane into the ocean beyond the
furthest limit of any search area.

Monday’s report didn’t support either theory explicitly, but struggled to come
up with a mechanical explanation for the aircraft’s deviations.

I was thinking the recorder would be picked up in some poor fishermen's net 500
years from now and tossed back in the water as some useless barnacle encrusted
relic of the past.

The History Channel will no doubt find a way to work in aliens and/or
black holes...

That is what happened when Fox bought THC, Discovery, Velocity(Speed),
TLC, and NatGeo. Now all of those Fox assets are about to be sold to
Disney, and who knows what that will bring.
