Malaysian Officials have concluded missing flight #MH370 was hijacked and steered off course

113. Wow, so the pilot could have had access to a potential murder switch?

I was wondering how someone in the cockpit could manage a hijacking without accomplices.

So the recipe for a pilot hijacking is:

Get Pilot duty on a international red eye flight so passengers are sleeping at critical time;
Make sure flight is over water to lessen the number of radar systems that can track the plane;
Lock cockpit door;
Turn off comm systems and transponder;
Flip circuit breaker in cockpit that deactivates passenger oxygen system;
Fly to de-pressurization height;
Put on Pilot's oxygen mask;
Wait till well past time needed to ensure passenger deaths, but leave enough time to dive to normal height before pilot's oxygen runs out;
Fly, unimpeded by any inside forces and undetected by outside forces, to destination.

YIKES!

So was this the "Perfect Storm" type of flight? It seems to have been.

You'd think Boeing wouldn't have been stupid enough to not install passenger masks that the crew could manually activate in the passenger section, though. And surely they weren't remiss enough to not install a satellite phone in the crew section and idiot lights powered by a separate electrical system (and backup generator) that blink madly when the comm systems and transponders are disabled in the cockpit.

That's just my 2 cents from this average jim. Sign me: "Previously Unbelievable"
