I am just curious how it got to the Southern Indian Ocean. That is an exact 180 degree opposite direction of where they were going. No cell phone calls were made and for the plane to have ended up there, it would have had to have flown for hours. This whole thing is baffling.

best theory i have seen is that an electrical fire damaged the transponders and communication devices...they changed direction heading for the nearest airport...people on the plane were overcome by smoke or lack of oxygen (much like Payne Stewart plane) and plane was on autopilot and flew until it ran out of fuel...
if they can ever prove that, i have no idea...but it sounded more plausible than any other explanation i'd heard

Now that they know where it is they might recover the black box, provided it is not 1000 feet below water.

And hopefully provide some facts as to what happened. This constant speculation and asking experts what they think happened is mind numbing.

CNN's devotion to this story has been historic. It is almost like nothing else is going on in the world.
Seems to me like they don't want to focus on Crimea.

I thought the best theory was the that guy that talked about the black hole swallowing it up. I am glad they found it and I hope that get the box quick so we can stop with the crazy and move on to helping the families of those aboard and dealing with Putin rebuilding the USSR.

Now that they know where it is they might recover the black box, provided it is not 1000 feet below water. they have successfully recovered an airplane black box from over 13,000 feet underwater, so the depth where it is suspected now should not be an issue...but if it is an electrical fire as one guys hypothesizes, then there will be no recorded data from that point

It would still be nice to know what happened to them. But who knows if they can even find the black box.

Other than Bill O'Reilly, Fox has spent a lot of time on it as well.

all the varying speculation concerning this is annoying...i hope every clown they've brought out on every single news channel that has said it was in "whatever-Stan" should have to apologize for their stupidity

Did you see that the MH370 families were notified the fate of their loved ones via text message? This being misreported in the media. Follow-up stories said that the families gathered at the hotels (where they have been since the event) were told in person with counselors on hand. The text was sent in addition, so that the ones who could not be told in person would have the information. http://www.itv.com/news/update/2014-03-24/malaysia-airlines-we-did-not-only-send-an-sms/Typical of the media to get the story half right and run with it.

no matter how it was communicated, at this point it would be criticized...samew with the response to the mudslide in Washington...same with tsunami response...same with hurricane sandy response...
way too much monday morning quarterbacking by people with no skin in the game other than wanting to have their name in lights...

I was hoping at one point that all the Ukraine 'experts' would switch places with the aviation 'experts' and we could see if the coverage would be different.
