#3 Looks like about 35 or 40 degrees south latitude. Weather can be rough but I think they found it. Lines up very well with projected path.

#4 It is in the right place, but doesn't look like a piece of a plane to me. Hopefully, we will find out tomorrow.

#5 Looks like a CG/Navy recruitment video.
Last 1 sec shows debris.
Mark it as a jettisoned shipping container.

#6 If the debris is from the MH370, the on-board fire and crew/passenger asphyxiation theory obviously gains credibility. Bangkok Billy was the first to dismiss the complex Taliban or AQ hijack theory. Hopefully we call all dismiss the terrorism theory soon.

#7 I couldn't disagree more with Besoeker's assertion. How in the world could that plane be THAT FAR off of the filed/planned flight course and yet so many be so eager to simply wish this away as a "on board fire"??? There was no distress call, the transponders were intentionally turned off, the plane DIVERTED from the planned course by a minimum of a 90 degree angle, and then quietly said "Good Night". Sorry, but I'm not willing to chalk all of that up to a "on-board fire".

Good grief.

#8 I certainly respect your opinion Crusader, but I surely hope you are incorrect.
