Vanishing plane

Very odd especially with today's technology...they can track an iphone to within about 2 feet of when it was last on....

In which case they are probably regretting telling people to turn their phones off before the plane took off.
 
Trouble is there are a lot of black areas where radar cannot track planes, the pilots have certain points where they have to contact the radio towers and give them there precise position and altitude.I boarded a Malaysia Airline flight only hours after this one went missing,my flight was from Manila to KL ,then KL to Melbourne.

Why would you fly from Manila to Melbourne via King's Lynn?
 
Apparently the plane turned west, away from its course.

Looking like terrorism or a suicidal pilot I reckon.

I heard this from a work colleague yesterday morning but hadn't seen it written in the press. Could have been a number of reasons for that happening that aren't linked to terrorism. Whatever happened, where is that plane? Bottom of the ocean?

Thing is, if it was terrorism some organisation would surely admit responsibility but heard nothing.
 
Bizarrely, relatives are saying they're still getting ringing tones on loved ones' phones on the plane....cannot the phone companies pinpoint them then? I don't understand it at all.

While you would expect that when you hear a ring tone the phone is on and in working order that may not actually be the case - according to one expert.

"That does not mean the phone you are calling is ringing yet," wireless analyst Jeff Kagan told NBC News.
