Every bit of evidence they find contrary to your opinion? Well, that's just part of the conspiracy, right? In this light, no matter what, you can't be wrong - you're just "not buying" what the investigation yields because it's all a big coverup anyway. It doesn't matter that you probably know next to nothing about aviation, you have figured it all out already.

Way to go, dude... You've solved the big mystery. And based on all the evidence you've acquired, why not just present it to the media, show them that this is in fact a big coverup, that they've wasted their time, and expose the illuminati for what they really are.

Appears that co-pilot's cell phone was on after the turn was made...no indication that he was trying to make a call, but the signal was picked up. Maybe he just forgot to turn it off but being a pilot, I doubt he would make that kind of mistake. Possible he was trying to alert somebody...

They did. They found out that the ocean is full of junk.

The pilot in the plane ahead of him tried to make contact, but couldn't understand what he said.

Its very common for ATC to ask other planes flying in an area to pass request to other planes over the Aircraft VHF radio, if ATC can not contact them.

The Plane in front of him would be contacting him on the VHF radio, not on his cell phone.

No, I mean from THAT spot, on THAT date in THAT time frame. They have latitude and longitude readings, right? Am I missing some glaring reason why they haven't done this? It seems like there would be a way to go back and take a look.

People have seen far too many movies and dramatic TV shows. What point is there to have a satellite snapping images of the middle of the Indian Ocean constantly? It's just a waste of resources. I don't doubt we have satellites taking images of regions of interest in places like China, North Korea, etc... But, to assume we, or anyone, just sits there and takes pictures of the middle of nowhere is probably not very realistic.

Even if we do have satellites that are taking pictures of the middle of nowhere, they're probably not pictures that would provide resolution details of that kind of debris. They'd probably be larger scale images of the general area.

Now, I mean, if we thought that someone was shipping nukes via a cargo ship that was headed across the Indian Ocean, then yeah, we might have satellite images of the area as we probably would redirect a satellite to follow it. But, I'd be highly doubtful any country had a satellite snapping images of the middle of nowhere.

What if everybody on the plane just happened to decide to leave their phone on? Wonder how that could affect a plane?
