Why was the transponder initially turned off, if it wasn't a hijacking or crazy pilot suicide plot? Any ideas or theories? Everything I saw about the pilot didn't sell me on the suicide bit.

I'll wait for facts and data and until then everything stays on the table. I agree that there are more questions than answers, but I can't think of one reason to turn off the transponder if my plane is on fire, depressurized, etc. If the fire was in the transponder, or something effecting the power supply to the transponder... or the depressurisation was caused by the transponder antenna ripping out and leaving a hole in the fuselage...? There's a couple of reasons. Just tossing out some crazy ideas. Thanks for brainstorming for a reason. Seems more than we have got from the media. This morning on abc was all about what the ping sounded like on a real black box. guffaw Just the facts, please, if you can find them abc. At this stage, my money is on the systems being deliberately switched of by person, or persons, unknown. This is based on wild eyed guesswork on my part. I find it strange that it supposedly flew for over 7 hours total. With submarines all over the Indian Ocean, you would think they would have picked up the ping on the box. The Indian Ocean is a BIG place. 73,556,000 kmē = Indian Ocean 9,826,675 kmē = USA Yes, I do realize how big the Indian Ocean is, I've been on Google Earth before it was called that. When you pull it up, almost the entire picture is water. I wonder how far out the Boeing 777-200's ping will sound? LP |

Shill #2 -- Great Tarverisms #5 The pitot tube was added to the first American jets to prevent the kind of failures that killed an entire squadron off Florida. Without P1 and T0 a jet will stall in fog. Thanks to both of you for playing. John rec.aviation.military 11 August 2002 |
