His reference was to a fireball meteor, not a test missile. the going theory there is that there was a fireball meteor over japan 2 days ago. I was referring to that. How the heck did you get NK from my reply?

theres at least 2 difference intel agent in the plane.
from xxx and yyy country.
the plane probably did landed in nanming for re-fill or could possible still there hiding by someone or some organization.
The website also reported aviation sources in China as saying that radar data suggested a steep and sudden descent of the flight, during which time the aircraft had changed track from 24 degrees to 333 degrees.
Wouldn't they flight crew radio they were turning back? Is this something they would do on their own?

Wonder how they will confirm if it turned back..this newspaper stating that

Anyone know what that would look like on a map 24-333?

Lost communications happen all the time. International flights aren't tracked by radar, they report in by waypoint as they go. It's up to the plane to report their position.

This plane was using either ADS-B or ADS-C. ADS-C is older and was only in use in a couple of regions that were not covered by normal radar in Malaysia. The tower can set time increments to request systems information automatically and will automatically transmit important systems and altitude changes out of normal, immediately. ADS-C had plans to be implemented everywhere in Malaysia between 2014 and 2016. However, since the flight showed up on Flightradar24, which receives information from ADS-B. This is GPS Sattelite based and sends information constantly in regard to systems and location based on GPS satellite. There is no reason why they don't know where this plane is and where it was when it lost contact.

I was simply shocked at the lack of depth in this thread regarding the terrorism allegations. It was all 100% Islam based from start to end
That's just simply not true. There were a number of posters talking about Chinese terrorists.
See how easy it is to be ill-informed?
