Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 missing!

MALAYSIA: STOLEN PASSPORT USER WAS ASYLUM SEEKER

Malaysian police say one of the passengers using a stolen passport on a missing jetliner was an Iranian asylum seeker.

Police chief Tan Sri Khalid Tan Sri said Tuesday that the man was not believed to be a member of a terrorist group.

He says the man was a 19-year-old who was believed to be planning to reach Germany. He said the second passenger using a stolen passport has not been identified.

Authorities have not found the missing Malaysia Airlines jetliner three days after it disappeared from radar screens, and the discovery that two passengers used stolen passports to buy tickets raised questions about their motives for being on the flight.

Rescuers in several countries are searching for the plane that had 239 people on board.

SEARCH WIDENS FOR MISSING MALAYSIAN PASSENGER JET

The search area for a missing jetliner has expanded with Malaysian Airlines saying the western coast of the country is now the focus of the hunt.

That is on the other side of Malaysia from where flight MH370 was reported missing.

In a statement Tuesday it said the hunt had expanded beyond the flight path, and the "focus is on the West Peninsular of Malaysia at the Straits of Malacca."

Civil aviation chief Azharuddin Abdul Rahman says search teams continued to look in both areas.

Vietnam's deputy military chief says he had ordered a land search for the plane up to border with Laos and Cambodia.

The announcements reflect the difficulty authorities are having in finding the plane, which was carrying 239 people when it vanished off radar screens Saturday.

ONE SUSPECT ON MISSING JET IS IRANIAN, NO TERROR LINK

Malaysian police said Tuesday they had identified one of two men who boarded a missing Malaysian jet with fake passports as a 19-year-old Iranian believed to be seeking to emigrate to Germany.

"We believe he is not likely to be a member of any terror group and we believe he was trying to migrate to Germany," said Malaysia's national police chief Khalid Abu Bakar.

Khalid said authorities had not yet identified the other man.

DISAPPEARANCE OF MALAYSIAN PLANE UNLIKELY A TERROR ATTACK: INTERPOL

The mysterious disappearance of a Malaysia Airlines plane with 239 people on board was not likely caused by a terrorist attack, Interpol said Tuesday after revelations two passengers had used stolen European passports.

"The more information we get, the more we are inclined to conclude it was not a terrorist incident," Ronald K. Noble, head of Interpol, told reporters.

Even if it was hijacked and the plane is parked somewhere at a abandoned airfield, the plane would not have just disappeared from radar?

Ja, and they would be able to triangulate the cellphones. So it sounds more like just some superstition.
 
Has any plane that has been hijacked ever reached their objective or are they all just suicide missions?

Thats what gets me :confused: , the technology exists for "them" to track cell phones, smart phones, they can even track a flipping jihadist across the mountains of Afghanistan and drop a bomb on his outhouse while he is sitting in it from thousands of kilometres away.
So with all this electronic real time tracking around the globe how the F do you lose a bloody great plane?
