In one of the articles I read which was written by a pilot, and therefore given more 'believability', the pilot makes the argument that a fire started in the cockpit and the smoke rendered the flight crew unconscious and eventually dead. I guess the expert 'pilot' writing that story conveniently forgot that the flight crew have oxygen masks readily available, and I would bet that it is standard procedure to immediately put the masks on if any problem occurs, especially smoke. so much for erudite expertise.

From: Jed Rothwell This author says that hypothesis [fire] has to be wrong: http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_tense/2014/03/18/mh370_disappearance_chris _goodfellow_s_theory_about_a_fire_and_langkawi.html The latest twist on this story is that a search of the Pilot's home found a flight simulator, and the flight data that had been erased from the simulator indicated that the pilot had been training to land on Diego Garcia Island in the Indian Ocean. Here is another story on that connection, notably that this airport has hangars for B-52s (could hide a 777 from satellites) and was used to bomb areas in Afghanistan: http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headlines/2014/03/island-of-diego-garcia-factors -into-mysterious-malaysia-flight-theories/ It get weirder and weirder since this implies that the Pilot and probably the copilot as well - took the plane to 45,000 feet with the intention of killing all of the passengers and flight crew that did not have access to oxygen in the cockpit, and then headed to Diego Garcia. It also implies US complicity - to land on a US base and avoid the News getting out. Plus the Flight 370 was seen by local fishermen flying over the Maldives, which is on the flight path to Diego Garcia. This has of course been disputed by Officials of the Maldives. http://metro.co.uk/2014/03/18/flight-mh370-residents-on-remote-island-in-mal dives-saw-jet-matching-missing-malaysia-airlines-planes-description-4640688/ Thus, if a rogue element in the CIA was behind this act somehow, it would mean that something very valuable was aboard that airplane and not a passenger, since they would have all perished, most likely. Or else, someone in the US military is out to trigger war, possibly in the Middle East. The only apparent rationale for that is that someone in the Pentagon or NSA thinks that the USA can avoid an even greater tragedy by starting a local War now, possibly between Iran and Israel. One way to do that would be to load a "missing nuke" aboard a repainted 777, now El Al 666, with which to eliminate Iran's nuclear weapon program, and blame Israel at the same time. Makes a good plot for the next Bond movie if nothing else.
