the domino affect can take down the most advanced airliners and experienced pilots, but there are way too many ?? over MH370.
Clear night and cruise flight is not usually where the dominoes start falling. It could have pulled a China Airlines, flamed out an engine and nose dived I suppose, but even they were on freq and communicating.
It really is a great mystery.

Americans have flown a plane into a swamp while investigating a burnt out light bulb. Never say never.

Oh yeah! No amount of technology or automation will ever 100% cancel out human error, but is just a very weird phase of flight to have such a outcome.

Yep. Anyone who has spent time in a small boat out in the open ocean can tell you how incredibly small it makes you feel.

No smoking gun that it went into the ocean is what boggles my mind.
You could have had explosive D like major structural failure due to a bomb, but no one has claimed it yet so you can rule that out. It for sure wasn't a ditch because of the lack of mayday so if you think there is no foul play involved the only possible outcome was multiple systems taking a dump at once, which is highly unlikely in a Boeing.

I was really hoping Richard Quest was the one who came up with this one

Interesting. I am however convinced that the human mind can convince its self that is correct through a great ability of flawed logic and false correlation.

Oh I understand that, but just the idea that something the size of a 777 can just vanish in 2014 is still mind blowing. I would have expected SOMETHING to wash up, or be spotted by this point.

There are piles of trash that are miles wide in the oceans that never turn up on shores. A 777 is minuscule in comparison to the trash, or especially to the oceans, themselves.
We will eventually find something, and figure out what happened. It may be 50 years from now, but eventually something will be discovered.
To say Russia did it, as in the article, is laughable, though. A private pilot "expert". Come on...

Like a bunch of Styrofoam cups, life vests, seat cushions, bodies.
Makes one think it ditched and sunk pretty much intact.

But a ditching from FL370 would have some radio trace of evidence. I would hope
Aiya. The simplest answers are probably one of the pilots pulling an EgyptAir 990, something going horribly wrong a la Air France, or a bomb. And I kind of even doubt the last one because I'm sure people would be falling all over themselves to claim responsibility.
