http://www.veteranstoday.com/2015/02/11/wild-goose-chase-for-malaysia-airlines-flight-370/Der nævnes tre teorier, der som de eneste af de undersøgte kan forklare MH-370.
1) kæmpe brand ombord. Usandsynlig teori, fordi der næsten altid er tid til at udsende nødsignal.
2) nedskydning med missil udenfor Diego Garcia. Noget usandsynlig, fordi den ikke forklarer de forskellige mobil-telefon forbindelser efter forsvindingsnummeret
3) elektronisk kidnapning af flyet, fulgt af en landing på Diego Garcia. Den mest sandsynlige teori. Forklarer bl. a. dem SMS der kom fra Diego Garcia fra en passager på flyet.
Philip Wood, a passenger on MH 370, “sent a message from his iPhone and attempted to send a photo after disembarking from Flight 370. The photo was not received, but, allegedly, the encrypted information embedded in the message revealed the GPS location of the cell phone at the time the message was sent—and the coordinates are a match with Diego Garcia, the remote secret US military base in the Indian Ocean. It’s said that the text message was as follows:
I have been held hostage by unknown military personal after my flight was hijacked (blindfolded). I work for IBM and I have managed to hide my cellphone in my ass during the hijack. I have been separated from the rest of the passengers and I am in a cell. My name is Philip Wood. I think I have been drugged as well and cannot think clearly.
