I don’t have a twitter account, so missed this little drama:
Hysteria created from this guy taking an emotional subject such as an airliner going down, and feeding off of it.
I don’t agree with calling him or the others *retards*, however.
The bigger picture here is that it takes just one person to start something and then people just run with it instead of doing their own thinking and investigation and looking behind the curtain.
Here is my former post on MH370. I’ll add this quote from the spiegel website (it tries to get you to remove adblocker which I refuse to do. Too many viruses and sexually suggestive ads are being used.)
Larry Vance, 67, a flight crash investigator, whom has investigated over 200 flight crashes, confirmed my dream that MH370 was still intact when it landed on the water and is probably at the bottom of the ocean:
SPIEGEL: Only a handful of pieces of MH370 has been found. How can that be enough to reconstruct what happened?
Vance: A flaperon, found last year, has been confirmed as coming from MH370. And a piece of flap that showed up in June will doubtless be confirmed as coming from MH370. Those two pieces are wreckage — and wreckage can be studied for clues.
SPIEGEL: What do they tell you?
Vance: Flaperons and flaps are high-lift devices. Pilots deploy them when they need to fly at lower speeds during the final stage of the flight. The photos clearly show that the trailing edges of these devices are severely damaged whereas the leading edges are virtually unharmed. This is an extremely significant piece of information.
SPIEGEL: Why?
Vance: There is simply no other conclusion you can make: The flaps were extended when the aircraft hit the water. The trailing edge was dragged over water for some time — some seconds — to erode the trailing edges of those pieces. This evidence is easy to read. The pressure from being dragged through the water exceeded the structural strength of the attachment points of those pieces. They flew off, fell back in the water and presented themselves in the state they are in.
SPIEGEL: Assuming the flaps were extended — what exactly would that prove?
Vance: A lot. Hydraulics and electrics must have been available. One engine at least must have been running. The airplane did not run out of fuel as is often said. And most importantly: The flaps were selected that way. Somebody in the cockpit did that.
SPIEGEL: Couldn’t they have been deployed automatically?
Vance: No. Somebody pushed the lever, there is no other way to move the flaps. Somebody wanted that airplane to land on the surface of the ocean in such a way that the fuselage stayed intact, so that everything would go to the bottom, never to be found or seen again. All this talk of this being aviation’s biggest mystery makes me angry. There is absolutely no mystery to what happened. It’s a mystery why somebody would do this.

SPIEGEL: Were the passengers alive when the airplane touched down?
Vance: There is no way to know that. But my educated guess would be: No, the people died very early in the sequence, soon after the transponder was turned off. They were probably killed by apoxia which was induced by someone from within the cockpit.
…this was my feeling, too, from what I saw in the dream. Everyone was still strapped in their seats, except three passengers that floated towards the top of the ocean.
