Conspiracy theories

[magman]

Missing flight MH370, They say now that it is not where they been looking for the last two months, and where they heard the pings coming from (I bet the pings they were chasing was from a great white shark with a tracking device)

I am really beginning to believe now that the press is feeding us rubbish, and that there is definitely a conspiracy to it.................whats your views

[MegaWatty]

No ****ing idea.

[LarryLong]

Reality TV show in the making.

[PerryGroves]

No theory, would like to know what our cost is for running around chasing this thing. Who do we send the invoice to? I know we share some global responsibility but nobody goes missing in the water around Liechtenstein.

$90M just quoted on the today show..Could've bought a new one for that.

[Dotty]

Bernard Tomic took it to a party.

[Pencil]

Maybe LOST was a prequel?

[PeteyD]

How much if that is fixed costs though? I think if you had family members who were on the flight the cost would not be a consideration

Of course I agree, its a statement nobody would argue against.

So the cost is now $2bn (our bill is $1bn), they still think its somewhere near Australia, its one year on, do we stop looking?

They're not the ones funding it so they don't give a sh!t about costs.

What the real cost out of pocket cost?
Apart from fuel, any military used costs nothing as they get paid regardless of what they are doing so is not a real cost.

How many none government have to be paid?

Malaysia should get the invoice.

I think that most of the search stuff is government (different countries not just us), and hence fixed cost. There are international treaties that define the responsibilities etc for these sort of things.

Not just fuel costs Hatchy... additional flying hours / seagoing hours means increased maintenance costs plus, additional victualling costs for the ships at sea & aircrews who are operating out of a base that is not their own. Agree on the wages bill, the cost doesn't change but, there are significant cost factors in using the military for activities that were not planned for.

I'd throw out a reward for finding the plane and let people and private companies go bananas. We might actually get somewhere then.

you are right, wish the governments would take your advice

They knew where the air france plane was. They are looking for a needle in a haystack with this one.

in this case they have no idea even where even the haystack is

Any of you Alex Jones fanboys have any evidence of these conspiracies?

some of the first news reports that came out, were witness who had seen it flying over the maldives, do you really think a plane that size would stay intact when it hit the water, and sink to the bottom of the ocean complete with out leaving a trail of debris. There is just too much missing.

[Ashes]

I don't agree but I'm probably the exception.

Personally, would rather see the $$ spent trying to save lives.

You could argue if they find it, and then work out what happened, anything done to help prevent that in the future is saving lives. But you do have a point.

No problem with that if there's a decent prospect of recovery. I don't have an issue so much with following the leads to date, but it seems to be moving into Hail Mary territory now.

[PeteyD]

Nope. Took em 2 years for the other one. By that stage they tone it down a lot though.

I do wonder if they will ever know what happened.

[golfbound]

Just wish they would find it, I have a friend who was on the flight. I have no idea where it is I still think the us might have it somewhere, might have landed and taken off again from Diego Garcia.

^^^^this!!

Just to clarify, that wasn't me agreeing..

[Feelzy]

This whole incident was botched from the start. I remember hearing one thing and then later that day or the next morning, it would change. Authorities withholding information.

For this to be correct you have to assume everything you get from any news service comes directly from the authorities.

Is there no chance the news "reports" rubbish based on whispers because they want to be the first with a story?

Never believe anything you see or hear in media, anything to get a story and sell papers
