Chevy Cobalt (third generation Vega with the same deserved repuation) was designed by business school graduates. All properly designed cars both steer and brake even with the engine turned off. Only products designed by business school graduates (also called communists) are so dumb as to need a pump to steer and will lose brakes when the engine shuts off.

None of that exists in this story. The most unreliable thing in any system is a human.

Looks like we're just going to have to wait until someone rings a bell and shouts "De plane! De plane!"

Apparently, when he died, the message went with him. Leaving us only with this Fanatasy world.

Get the fuck out of here, the Cobalt acts like every other car with power steering and power brakes. Engine off, the steering and brakes require a lot more input, but still work. It's clueless fucking drivers that don't know what to do when it happens, and liars like you promoting false information.

Routine is to power off an engine in any car. Power brakes must work fine with full vacuum assist. Bruce would know that had he learned before posting. Steering might require a tiny more force on larger cars. And should require no additional force on small cars. Also called speed sensitive steering (discussed so many times previously). Bruce would know that had he learned before posting profanity to prove his manliness.

If a stalled engine requires more force to brake, then take it into the shop ASAP to fix a major human safety problem. These crashed Cobalts were apparently so badly designed as to lose brakes and could not be safely steered without engine assist. No properly designed small car (designed by engineers) has that problem. All cars, without exception, must have full power brakes if its engine stalls. But the emotional (not very adult) would post denials laced with profanity rather than learn how things really work.

Also looking forward for his clueless reasons why Malaysia Air 370 disappeared. Hopefully he will not repeat Mulder's X-file theories - that even claim a Cobalt would be harder to stop.

hmmm...

They wouldn't have to be in cahoots, one or the other could have done it alone.

Statement of the obvious coming up.

The aircraft has either:

(i). Crashed at sea

(ii). Crashed on land, or

(iii). Landed safely.


If a reasonably gentle ditching was accomplished, not the easiest of tasks, followed by sinking, then little evidence might be left on the surface.

If the aircraft crashed on land was any evidence recorded by a seismic observatory anywhere?

Which brings us to (iii). I would not be in the least bit surprised to find that the aeroplane had landed safely somewhere suitably remote for one reason or another. I am far from a conspiracy theorist (I lack the imagination!) but I wouldn't discount the possibility that its location is now known and the powers that be are assessing the situation and wondering what to do next. A public admission to that effect is unlikely.

I go with ii, personally.
Horrible outcome for the initial survivors, little hope thereafter.

Where it **could** have landed:

What was at the back of my mind was the 1973 hijacking of a Swissair DC8, a PanAm B707 and a BOAC VC10 to Dawson's Field in Jordan.
It was a disused former RAF airfield dating from WW2. I just wonder if a similar move might have been made in the case of MH370.
I suspect that there are many locations that could be pressed into use above and beyond the 'formal' airports shown in your graphic.
If the aircraft is still in one piece I just pray that all on board remain safe.

Why bother, just fly straight down, nobody can stop you. No, if the pilot and/or copilot planned and executed this it was not suicide, they planned on landing somewhere.

At least we can spell Appalachian, you fucking genius.

It must be true. It was on the internet:
Appaliachian Christians
Appaliachian Ortho Center, Carlisle, PA
Potomac Appaliachian Trail Club
and home to my Alma Matter
Appaliachian Christian School, Boone NC

Deja Vu. They were "Lost" on a similar island. Some years later, we discovered they all died in the crash.

It works in SciFi. So it must be true. First identify all possibilities.
