What happened to MH370?

I was 14 when this plane went missing. It fascinated me then, and it fascinates me now. What happened to it? Will they ever find it? Was it shot down? Did they cover it up?

I was writing for the school newspaper in high school back when that happened so I was always reading news articles. I remember reading so much about that flight at the time.

Last I heard, they tracked it's flight pattern to have turned around from it's original destination then flown straight out to the open sea without stopping or turning until they eventually ran out of gas. It's said that the on board communications were also cut off in a way that could only be done from on the plane. It's never been revealed what really happened though. Some believe the pilot may have made the choice to kill himself along with everyone else on the plane. Some believe the plane may have been hijacked. Some even believe it was a series of unfortunate & strange accidents that led them to veer FAR off course & never even realize it

@ChiefJustWalks Very interesting. Did you think about a career in journalism?

I don't believe anything they have said about this plane. So much of the information has been undermined and contradicted by other information. It is not possible for them to have such minimal evidence and details to work with. I believe it was shot down. It's also possible they were all taken away to be experimented on by a government. There should have been immediate debris and some bodies on the ocean surface. Did all 239 bodies on this plane stay inside it? How? It did not just neatly crash into the ocean. It would have broken apart, and lighter parts would stay on surface.

I remember reading many articles and watching it on news channels at the time. In July 2014 another devastating event happened with a Malaysia Airlines plane when it was shot down over Ukraine, and this was also a major news story. The following year, a Germanwings pilot deliberately flew his plane into the French Alps.

@SW-User I did think about trying journalism when I was young since I always liked writing. I guess I never thought much about it past that though.

You're right about so much info being often contradicted. There's really not much we know as hard facts & that in itself gives off strong vibes of a cover up. You'd think there'd be more debris than the little scraps it took them forever to find. I forgot about that flight that got shot down though.. I remember it was a Russian missile but I'm not sure what ever came of that situation

@ChiefJustWalks You have made a lot of posts here. I like writing too, at least about these kinds of topics

All of that is true! It is all very suspicious. As for Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, 298 people were killed and no one has been punished for it.
A Dutch court did convict three men in absentia. They are all living in Russia and cannot be extradited. They arranged transport of missile into Ukraine, but did not fire it. Some other separatists fired it.
