The Malaysian ambassador to China has received confirmation from the Malaysian military that it detected a rogue jet just an hour after flight MH370 vanished - but denied rumours it was shot down.

Iskandar Sarudin, confronted by the frustrated families of Chinese passengers, called up a military source to dispel rumours on social media that the aircraft was shot down - and that it could have been the Beijing-bound flight.

Sarudin was bombarded by questions from concerned relatives at a Malaysia Airlines briefing at Beijing's Lido Hotel.

The military confirmed spotting the unidentified aircraft on its radar about an hour and 20 minutes after MH370's signal went cold on Saturday, the ambassador said.

A Malaysia Airlines representative at the same briefing said the military had not determined if it was the missing plane.

The ambassador was quoted as saying the military official had said the rogue aircraft was not deemed a threat, otherwise it would have notified its response teams.

The press was barred from the briefing, but some Chinese correspondents managed to get accounts and pictures from the event. They posted these on their newspapers' microblogs.

The families also asked about the mental health of the pilots, Captain Zaharie Shah and co-pilot Fariq Abdul Hamid. Shah had more than 18,300 hours of flight experience, while Hamid had 2,800 hours.

Malaysia Airlines said its investigation of the crew had not brought up anything unusual.

The airline representative also shed some light on the mystery of the continuing connection to some MH370 passengers' mobile phones. He said that at least two numbers could be reached and that the ringtones could be heard when dialled, but no one picked up.

But Malaysia Airlines said they had yet to confirm if the calls were actually connecting to the phones or if they were being redirected to telecom providers' servers.

Asked if the military radar had not been fully activated, the airline representative said the military could not track flight MH370's signal after it vanished from civil aviation radar.

Accounts described the meeting as tense. The aggrieved relatives stopped the officials proceeding to a media briefing until their questions were answered.

Re: Backside bandit Anwar wants to probe KLIA bomoh!

They should give Anwar a contract work for this case.

He can get rid of bomoh farce and has better PR skills than all the m&ds put together.

Once finished put Anwar back to jail and start their nonsense again.

They should put Anwar into prison right away.

US suggests search for missing flight expand to Indian Ocean as MH370 'satellite pings' revealed

A new search area for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 may be opened in the Indian Ocean, the White House said, significantly broadening the potential location of the plane, which disappeared nearly a week ago with 239 people on board.

Expanding the search area to the Indian Ocean would be consistent with the theory that the Boeing 777 may have detoured to the west about an hour after take-off from the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur en route to Beijing.

"It’s my understanding that based on some new information that’s not necessarily conclusive - but new information - an additional search area may be opened in the Indian Ocean," White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters in Washington.

Carney did not specify the nature of the new information and Malaysian officials were not immediately available to comment.

The disappearance of the Malaysia Airlines plane is one of the most baffling mysteries in the history of modern aviation. There has been no trace of the plane nor any sign of wreckage despite a search by the navies and military aircraft of more than a dozen countries across Southeast Asia.

Satellites picked up faint electronic pulses from the aircraft after it went missing on Saturday, but the signals gave no information about where the jet was heading and little else about its fate, two sources close to the investigation said on Thursday.

But the "pings" indicated its maintenance troubleshooting systems were switched on and ready to communicate with satellites, showing the aircraft was at least capable of communicating after losing touch with air traffic controllers.

The system transmits such pings about once an hour, according to the sources, who said five or six were heard. However, the pings alone are not proof that the plane was in the air or on the ground, the sources said.

Malaysian authorities have said the last civilian contact occurred as the Boeing 777-200ER flew north into the Gulf of Thailand. They said military radar sightings indicated it may have turned sharply to the west and crossed the Malay Peninsula toward the Andaman Sea.

The new information about signals heard by satellites shed little light on the mystery of what happened to the plane, whether it was a technical failure, a hijacking or another kind of incident on board.

While the troubleshooting systems were functioning, no data links were opened, the sources said, because the companies involved had not subscribed to that level of service from the satellite operator, the sources said.

Boeing and Rolls-Royce, which supplied its Trent engines, declined to comment.

Earlier Malaysian officials denied reports that the aircraft had continued to send technical data and said there was no evidence that it flew for hours after losing contact with air traffic controllers early last Saturday.

"It’s extraordinary that with all the technology that we’ve got that an aircraft can disappear like this," Tony Tyler, the head of the International Air Transport Association that links over 90 percent of the world’s airlines, told reporters in London.

Military Deployment Grows

Ships and aircraft are now combing a vast area that had already been widened to cover both sides of the Malay Peninsula and the Andaman Sea.

The US Navy was sending an advanced P-8A Poseidon plane to help search the Strait of Malacca, separating the Malay Peninsula from the Indonesian island of Sumatra. It had already deployed a Navy P-3 Orion aircraft to those waters.

American defence officials told Reuters that the US Navy guided-missile destroyer, USS Kidd, was heading to the Strait of Malacca, answering a request from the Malaysian government. The Kidd had been searching the areas south of the Gulf of Thailand, along with the destroyer USS Pinckney.

India’s Defence Ministry has ordered the deployment of ships, aircraft and helicopters from the remote Andaman and Nicobar Islands, at the juncture of the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea. An Indian P8I Poseidon surveillance plane was sent to the Andaman islands on Thursday.

China, which had more than 150 citizens on board the missing plane, has deployed four warships, four coastguard vessels, eight aircraft and trained 10 satellites on a wide search area. Chinese media have described the ship deployment as the largest Chinese rescue fleet ever assembled.

Wrong Images

On the sixth day of the search, planes scanned an area of sea where Chinese satellite images had shown what could be debris but found no sign of the airliner.

Malaysian Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein told a news conference the images were provided accidentally, saying the Chinese government neither authorised nor endorsed putting them on a website. "The image is not confirmed to be connected to the plane," he said.

It was the latest in a series of contradictory reports, adding to the confusion and agony of the relatives of the passengers.

As frustration mounted over the failure to find any trace of the plane, China heaped pressure on Malaysia to improve coordination in the search.

Premier Li Keqiang, speaking at a news conference in Beijing, demanded that the "relevant party" step up coordination while China’s civil aviation chief said he wanted a "smoother" flow of information from Malaysia, which has come under heavy criticism for its handling of the disaster.

Malaysian police have said they were investigating whether any passengers or crew on the plane had personal or psychological problems that might shed light on the mystery, along with the possibility of a hijacking, sabotage or mechanical failure.

The Boeing 777 has one of the best safety records of any commercial aircraft in service. Its only previous fatal crash came on July 6 last year when Asiana Airlines Flight 214 struck a seawall with its undercarriage on landing in San Francisco, killing three people.

Mince meat simi lancheow are you talking about? U think the Malaysian airforce so stupid that they will send an invite to the RSAF to meet over the SOuth China Sea on a specified day and specified time to fight it out? Most likely, they will set up their Astros II MLRS somewhere in small jungle clearings in Johor state and fire GPS guided rockets all day long in Seletar, Changi, Paya Lebar, and Tengah airbases. The RSAF will consists of burnt out planes sitting on the tarmac and hangers after this. Make mince meat of who? Only a stupid opponent over estimates his ability and underestimate the enemy.

Re: Backside bandit Anwar wants to probe KLIA bomoh!

Papsmearer's new theory on MH370.

One or both Pilots hijacked their own plane. If one pilot was acting on his own, he just has to wait till the other pilot goes outside the cockpit for a toilet break or chat up some blonde slut in the passenger cabin and lock him out. Pilot than turns off transponder and other other aircraft comms, and turns the aircraft in another direction. He either takes the plane down to 100ft or below or re-programs the auto pilot to fly the plane at sea level. This enables him to disappear off the primary radar/land radar screens because they are not designed to detect low flying aircraft. Because he is flying at low altitude, he will have a higher fuel burn rate and hence his range will not be the same as what it could be at 35,000 ft. The engines of the 777 were still pinging to the Boeing maintenance engineering satellite for hours after it disappeared off the radar, indicating the engines were still functioning and not in the water. But where did it go. That is the mee siam mai hum question.

It is day six of the search for missing Malaysia Airline flight MH370 and new evidence could suggest it flew without radar contact
Missing four hours: A map showing a four-hour radius of where the plane could have ended up

The missing Malaysia Airline flight MH370 could have flown for an extra FOUR hours after it lost contact with air traffic controllers, according to reports.

In another dramatic twist, aviation experts believe the plane flew for a total of five hours under radar.

It is based on data automatically downloaded and sent to the ground from the aircraft's Rolls Royce engines as part of a standard monitoring programme.

The possibility means the plane could have travelled for another 2,200 miles to Pakistan or Mongolia, according to the Wall Street Journal.

It sparks fear it could have been hijacked and taken to an unknown location - one of many theories as to what may have happened to the disappearing plane.

The Wall Street Journal said it isn't clear whether investigators have evidence of a hijacking - but they haven't ruled the possibility out.

US investigators are looking into the prospect and counter terrorism officials are investigating the idea that the plane's transponders were turned off intentionally and the aircraft was diverted.

Malaysia plane Underwater? Hopes were raised when an image appeared to show debris


The Boeing 777 jetliner vanished six days ago with 239 people on board.

The flight left Kuala Lumpur at 4.41pm GMT bound for Beijing, but less than 50 minutes later it lost communication with air traffic control.

But a senior Malaysia Airlines official told Reuters that no such data relating to the potential extra flight time existed, while a second official said he was unaware of it too.

A spokesperson for engine manufacturer Rolls-Royce had no immediate comment.

Malaysia Airlines said previously the engines stopped transmitting monitoring signals when contact with the plane was lost.

The engines should transmit live data to the ground every 30 minutes.

Satellite: Hopes were raised this was part of the plane


Hopes were raised when a Chinese state agency released satellite images of three pieces of large debris floating near the plane's last recorded position in the South China sea.

Vietnamese Aircraft repeatedly circled the area shown by the image - but were unable to detect anything, said a journalist on board one of the planes.

Earlier China's president said his country will not stop searching for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane as long as there is a "glimmer of hope."

At least 10 countries, including Vietnam and China, are taking part in the search, which involves 42 ships and 39 aircraft.

Re: Backside bandit Anwar wants to probe KLIA bomoh!

2 things I am sure are happening.

1) The RSAF is studying tapes from its Gulfstream GS550 AEW flights for that night. The RSAF keeps round the clock aerial surveillance on Malaysian airspace with these GS550s, especially over the RMAF primary airfields. I am sure the radar on this plane also picks up low level aircraft in case the 777 decided to fly at sea level to avoid ground based radar.

2) If the RSAF has radar tapes on this flight, I don't think they will reveal it to the Malaysians for fear of a diplomatic incident.
