FYI:

Input from my neighbor - a US Air pilot.

Asked him if there was a consensus amongst his peers and he said "No one knows anything other than what has thus far been reported. It's truly a mystery."

Then I asked for his opinion.

He said he's leaning toward some human related intervention. He also said the radar systems in that part of the world are a bit sketchy.....so the searchers may not even be searching in the right area(s).

He also said the planes have both homing devices which are activated when triggered by a certain G force level or hit by water. Also the black box gives off a beacon. But if those are down past a certain depth - they are not detectable.

He said we may never know what happened or we may find out soon...really no way of knowing how it will play out.
