Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 Mystery
Malaysia Airlines flight 370's disappearance continues to be a mystery. The flight went missing with 239 people on board over the skies of SouthEast Asia on March 8.
Malaysian authorities discovered that there were two people who had boarded the plane with stolen passports. Making their identities as unidentified to authorities. As a result, the countries air force chief have contacted counter terrorism agencies all over the world for any information following the concerns of the unidentified passengers .
The mysteries surrounding the missing plane keeps getting more complex as the search for the plane continues. According to CNN they said, “The Boeing 777-200 took off from Kuala Lumpur, the Malaysian capital, at 12:41 a.m. Saturday. It was scheduled to arrive in Beijing at 6:30 a.m. the same day, after a 2,300-mile (3,700-kilometer) journey. But around 1:30 a.m., air traffic controllers in Subang, outside Kuala Lumpur, lost contact with the plane as it was flying over the sea between Malaysia and Vietnam”.

Since then, from what new sources can gather at this time, the pilots didn’t issue any distress signals. The Malaysian military officials suggest that according to their site radar the plane might have changed course and turned back toward Kuala Lumpur before it disappeared. Also, if that was the case the pilots failed to inform air traffic control what they were doing. Leaving officials and others all wondering why they would have turned the plane around in the first place.
Meanwhile, Malaysia’s neighbouring navies are pursuing new leads in hopes of finding the missing plane. According to Thailand navy official Karn Dee-ubon told CNN. “The shift came at the request of the Malaysians, who are looking into possibilities the plane turned around and could have gone down in the Andaman Sea, near Thailand's border, Karn said.The Andaman Sea lies to the west of a narrow strip of Thailand that ends in the Malaysian Peninsula, while the Gulf of Thailand lies to the east of that Thai isthmus”.

Many conspiracy theories have thus emerged from different sources. For example, the two passports that were stolen have raised concerns of potential terrorism. However, officials say it is too early to draw and confirm those conclusions. Also, another theory is that the plane could have dissolved in high altitude.
These are just theories and officials are following different outcomes that may have cause the plane to vanish and how. The officials are looking into the the crew members, the stolen passports and seeing if there is any logical connection tied to the flight going missing. Also, the security screening and mechanical causes are also matters being look into .
After more than 30 hours without contact with the aircraft, Malaysia Airlines told family members they should “prepare themselves for the worst,” Hugh Dunleavy, the commercial director for the airline, told reporters.
Vietnam’s Maritime Search and Rescue Services was scrambling ships to a debris field after a commercial Cathay Pacific airliner Monday en route to Hong Kong reported a “large amount of metal debris”.
The search and theories as to what happen to the plane that vanished are all still a mystery. For now will stand by and see how this unfortunate tragedy unfolds.
