If that scenario were true (transponder off) and the plane flew to a remote destination, least we forget satillite reconnaissance. Fuel remaining, outer range of B-777 (was it the LR?), noted fields capable of handling the B-777, go to remote fields, etc. How many? A dozen? Two dozen? Whats the liklihood of visual confirmation (Malaysian markings) by anyone and reporting it by now? It ain't no Cessna 150 landing in the Gobi desert!

Is it feasible, plausible or possible? Maybe, but doubtful.

This may well fall into the realm of something well beyond our scope and boundary. Keep thinking people..................
