Here's my hangup about the missing Plane...

1. Can't track a plane that was gobbled up by a space ship!

[Loudly]

2. I'm sure they've tried to track the phones on that plane

and have come up empty handed.

3. It still makes you wonder.

They can hunt a person down by there cell phone, a SMALL object.

But with all the ways that they are supposed to have to track a plain at time of takeoff to landing, a LARGE object, they can't.

4. They can't track your phone if it is off

(although in some cases you might have to remove the battery to be sure it is inactive).

And if it is at the bottom of 20,000 feet of water in the Indian Ocean, they sure can't track your phone.

5. That is another hangup...

What happen to turn the tracking stuff off? The world news said that they were still airborne for 4 hours after it drop from radar???

Missing Malaysian plane may have flown up to four hours, U.S. officials say

The search for a missing Malaysian jetliner with 239 people onboard could expand westward into the Indian Ocean based on information that the plane may have flown for at least four hours after it dropped from civilian radar, U.S. officials said Thursday.

8. Most likely the pilots and/or highjackers turned the switch/circuit breaker to "off".

6. Haha

That plane was hijacked/taken over by the pilot. More than likely it was shot down by us once it was hijacked. Now all we are waiting for is the powers that be to come up with a plausible story to feed to us.
