Agree the whole thing is highly suspicious. It's good to hear people going on record saying there is more to this than meets the eye and what we have been told. I get the feeling though that the whole episode is history now. They may 'find' some wreckage one day and an 'expert' will be able to say ahhh the engine cowling fell off after being hit by an overly large seagull, case closed...

Yes...I was not literally saying the case is closed. I was saying that the 'authorities' could possibly trot out this scenario sometime in the future if they wish.
Then again...they may not need to bother as sadly MH370 is ancient history to most people.

No civilian airliner have ever been remote controllable, period.
When and if that happens you're gonna read about it in every newspaper all over, not just on conspiracy websites.
And btw:
and enable air traffic controllers to take over a distressed aircraft and land it by remote control.
ATC don't fly airplanes, pilots do.

If it was just the patent issue as motivation, people have died for less. If they wanted the team dead then why not just blow the plane up and make it all official? With Mores law still running around I would not be surprised if the team is still working away on the next version, in some deep dark hole with a gun to their head.
Maybe they are all dead and all this mystery just compounds the confusion and uncertainty. Personally if I went to all the trouble to make a plane disappear then I would try to capitalize on the investment as much as I could.

They were flying them in WWII. But go back and read what he said. No CIVILIAN airliner has ever been remote controllable. Not "they can't do it".

you land parallel to the waves not perpendicular and it is possible to do so with the plane not breaking apart. the stall speed is somewhere around 120 kts with full flaps and nothing else extended and remember it didn't have any fuel so that weight is out of the equation.
otherwise where is the debris
a water landing is not out of the question, especially if you practice in a simulator
That's an interesting scenario. I just wonder though what motivation a suicidal pilot would have to go to such great lengths to hide the wreckage and keep the plane from being tracked. A guy who wants to off himself by jumping off a bridge doesn't concern himself with hiding his car so that no one can find it. The suicidal pilot idea just doesn't make sense to me. I don't see how anyone can come to that conclusion based on the efforts the pilot would have to take to pull this off. If he wanted to kill himself by crashing into the ocean why would he care where he ditched the plane?
Maybe I've just seen too many Mission Impossible movies.
