Questions about MH370 going missing since 2014 are still unanswered in 2024. The most important of these is why MH370 seemed to change direction in a seemingly controlled direction towards the Indian Ocean and more importantly, why the two important tracking and communication devices on the plane were silent.
This has led plot theories about MH370 to focus on captain Zaharie and deputy commander Fariq Abdul Hamid, 27. The hypothesis targeting MH370 is further strengthened when recovery data from the flight simulation device of captain Zaharie shows that he had planned a route to the southern Indian Ocean.
In fact, many things are known for sure about the fate of MH370. First, the disappearance was an act of intentional action. It is unconvincing to say that the flight route is known, and radio and electronic communication devices are also silent, due to a combination of system errors and human errors" - William Langewiesche - pilot, investigative journalist - wrote in the Atlantic in 2019.
Langewiesche believes that the Zaharie captain could send the sub-uchievers out of the cockpit to do some chores, then turn off most of the power system and deliberately reduce the aircraft's pressure, causing everyone in the cabin to lose the ability to operate within a few minutes.
According to The Sun, the documentary "Why Planes Vanish: The Hunt For MH370" examines the hypothetical that captain Zaharie was behind the suicide - murder case that was carefully planned.
According to this hypothesis, the captain who worked for Malaysia Airlines for about 30 years gave the plane for 7 hours after cutting off contact with the authorities. The MH370 captain deliberately reduced the pressure in the cabin to "deactivate" the passenger and crew that could die 20 minutes later.
Malaysia Airlines' crisis director at the time of MH370's disappearance - Fuad Sharuji - said: "There were no emergency signals, no emergencies. We have tried to contact the flight in many ways, including the crew's satellite communication system, but they are not working."
Scientists at London-based company Inmarsat later discovered a satellite that received an hourly signal from MH370 within 7 hours of the plane's loss of contact.
Higher military radar data shows MH370 turning around immediately after the disconnect, flying back to Kuala Lumpur and around Indonesia.
Jean Lucand - former director of aerial research at Eurocontrol and former pilot Patrick Lelly, who studied the missing MH370 case through simulation, believed that only experienced pilots could carry out this challenging route.
Sharing in the new documentary about MH370, Jean Luc noted that to be invisible, pilots only need to turn off theater used to communicate with air traffic control.
Retired aerospace engineer Richard Godfrey said that there were changes in direction and altitude that proved the pilot had chosen to "end" the plane.
Patrick Lelly believes that MH370 pilot must reduce cabin pressure to prevent the crew from issuing warnings.
I believe this was done by an experienced pilot, Jean Luc added.
According to The Guardian, Dr. Ghouse Mohd Noor - principal Zaharie Ahmad Shah - said: "The family of principal Zaharie is still hoping for an answer. The door was not closed yet. There must be an explanation for what happened."
"I pray day and night that this plane will be found. We support all efforts and new efforts that are being promoted," he added.
Former Malaysia Airlines crisis director Fuad Sharuji said that the family of captain Zaharie was isolated by plot theories surrounding pilot MH370.
"They stay away from the media because they cannot accept the accusations. They are trying their best to continue their lives" - Sharuji said.
