Flight MH370 was flown into water, says crash expert

A section of wing from missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 shows evidence it was extended upon landing, suggesting a rogue pilot brought it down, an air crash expert says.

World expert air crash investigator Larry Vance believes no other theory can explain the fate of the doomed aircraft.

“Somebody was flying the airplane into the water,” he told Channel Nine’s 60 Minutes program on Sunday.

The Australian search has been based on the theory the jet was not under human control when it crashed with 239 people on board, en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on 8 March 2014, after it inexplicably veered off course and headed south over the Indian Ocean.

Vance believes a small section of wing, called the flaperon, found a year ago off the coast of Madagascar, shows “definite evidence” it was extended at the time of landing – and the extending can only be activated by a person.

1. Still don't understand how an ENTIRE COMMERCIAL JET can go missing

Well actually I do understand. Its the regulation of the aviation industry that is to blame for not putting the equipment in place that would track planes better even over water.

2. "The extending can only be activated by a person"

Really? I don't know the details of the control systems, but he's implying that, for example there are no electric hydraulic pumps that could have been activated by a wire shorting out. None? Zero? I find that hard to believe.

And there are no CPU errors which could have caused it, keeping in mind that high energy cosmic rays/particles pass through us, the Earth, & airplanes by the trillions every day & sometimes they collide with & interact with atoms & electrons, doing nasty things like occasionally causing computing errors, & cancer?
