On A Runway In Kazakhstan Sits The Missing Flight 370

By Steven Birchwood


Not knowing their fate, the 227 passengers and 12 crew members on board Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 bound for Beijing, China from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia got ready for their 6 hour flight. These 239 individuals from 15 different countries had no indication of what will happen to them nor did their families and friends have any reason to fear. More than a week has passed now and Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 is still missing. What happened to them?

There are many theories that came up with the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines Flight 370. It was hours after the flight has been missing before Malaysia announced the disappearance of the plane. Since there was no distress signal to warn proper authorities, nobody assumed that something went wrong. In fact it came as a surprise that Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 just vanished into thin air. Did they crash somewhere in the ocean? Were they hijacked? Did the pilots have anything to do with this? Was it an alien invasion?

There are various news circulating in the internet, some true and some purely speculative. And though all of them are interesting to read, these reports could mislead the readers as to what really happened. Officials have been careful in releasing information and not because they have something to hide. Every morsel of information is often misconstrued in so many ways by the public. Since there were no debris found, officials may suspect a hijack. So it would follow that investigation of all passengers will be conducted. At first there was a commotion when two reported stolen passports came up and was used by two Iranian men. Then the flight simulator was found in the home of the pilot. Again this caused turmoil amongst the public. All reports are based in facts, but the news is misleading and some reports are already claiming terrorist attack or a takeover by the pilots.

The more bizarre reports presumed the more impossible occurrence. One of which is the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 in the Bermuda Triangle which has always intrigued the public. An even more bizarre report concluded that the colony of aliens tool part in the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines Flight 370. Both presumptions would logically be rejected by any rational being but given the situation wherein no concrete answers can still be found, people would begin to doubt whether such things are really improbable.

The wait for many is still dragging on as Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 still remains to be missing. The mystery behind its disappearance still unanswered. With this, it is easy to believe so many different things just to appease the growing unease of the public. What is taking so low for the proper authorities to find the aircraft? Aren't we living in an advanced world where technology could have picked up signals from the aircraft? While the world is growing impatient, speculations are all that can be offered. The important thing now is not to jump into conclusions and just wait for more concrete answers. Until then, all we can do is hope and pray for the passengers and their loved ones.
