| #17 If you're snatching a person, thing, or just disappearing, 3-4000 ft would do. Maybe less if you didn't give a darn. Throw a tarp over the plane after it skids to a stop in a field and you're good to go. |

| #16 Y'all need to stop slandering the Chinese! Why would rational, practical people, like the folks running China today, stumble all over themselves shooting that plane down a week ago, when they can take it out of ghost city cold storage and dispose of it later, wherever and whenever they like? |

| #15 Too much BS from non-aviators. Stop it. Its in Xinjiang waiting for the 12th iman to bless it on its mission to land in Tiammen Square with a cargo full of MSG. |

| #14 #13. Same discussion in American Thinker. |

| #13 My guess is they got into Chinese airspace (why? Maybe thinking they could get to Pakistan or Iran?) and got shot down - before anyone even knew anything was wrong. Then China covered it up to avoid bad PR. |

| #12 I wonder how many it could have landed, refueled, and taken off again from before anyone knew they were supposed to be looking for a hijacked plane instead of a crashed one in the Gulf of Thailand. |

| #10 it's not 634 if you takeout the ones where people would notice an errant plane. |

| #8 Did Jindalee pick up anything? That is exactly why I don't believe the plane took the "southern arc." I suspect it is somewhere in Burma. Al |

| #7 if mh 370 had landed somewhere with a runway, the odds are that it would have been spotted by someone nearby or by satellite or aviation even if it had landed on a straitaway w/o a runway, the odds are only slightly less of it being spotted |

| #6 I had a '61 El Camino many moons ago. Loved it. Faster than blazes, but real 'squirrelly' to control when empty. Handled better with a couple 60# bags of sand (tied down) in the box. |

| #5 Certainly better than your graphics... |

| #4 Yes, the plane has landed at a "secret airfield" where it is being converted into a fleet of 1960 Chevy lowriders, which will be used to invade Los Angeles, California by Uighurs loyal to Al-Qaeda. (Just a theory, about as good as this article) |

| #3 ..imho, someone at the Pentagon knows exactly where this a/c is.. |

| #2 Bear in mind, these runways are only if you want to use the airplane again. If you're snatching a person, thing, or just disappearing, 3-4000 ft would do. |

#1  Was Diego Garcia a destination? A target? Did Jindalee pick up anything ? |
