I don't know if her posts are still on that forum, haven't been there in years. It's a lot of good reading if anyone is interested. Her husband said there was some sort of Navy ship also in the water at the same time, I don't think they were close enough to it to know who's Navy.

FWIW.
People vs machines!
People are usually very poor witnesses: we have imagination, supposition, we have a memory that falters, our mind may add additional details “to fill the voids” or to “help explain” what we are seeing, we have biases, etc, etc.
Add to that our emotional weaknesses like attention seeking behavior, being under the influence of chemicals, profiting, etc
Machines on the other hand may record what they were designed to do objectively - unless broken of course or tweaked by humans.
Unless it was/is a worldwide spontaneous conspiracy and we are all lied to about the data/ information collected from the various machines from different geographic areas in different countries; machines designed for different applications like satellites, radars, airplane transponders and other avionics
the objective data driven conclusion is that
the plane was flying for more than 7 hours and ended up in the midst of the Indian Ocean.
Years later it is confirmed empirically with hard evidence when they found some parts that came from the plane - where the scientists predicted they may wash ashore brought by currents
Burning planes don’t fly that long and that far (the Swissair111 couldn’t even make it to the airport 56 miles away)
The only uncertainty is again due to our human factor:we may speculate why it happened and guess by preponderance of the evidence? but we would never know - unless there is a letter hidden somewhere or his wife’s deathbed confession?
