Before It’s News Exclusive by Deborah Dupré

 

UPDATE: April 3, 10:40 EST

 

Deborah Dupré at Before It’s News has just been advised that Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 had a last minute gate change from C24 to C1.

 

Facts About 2 Malaysia Planes Used In Crisis You’ve Not Been Told

 

The expert investigative team assigned to the Malaysia Airlines missing plane and corporate media have withheld much known timeline and flight path data from the public. Officials now admit much of this data is sealed, as just announced in Beijing. Some of this censored information regarding the timeline and flight path, however, has been compiled to present here. It is all supported by official airline data, radar reports and maps. 

 

Clarifications

 

Before reviewing the timeline and flight path according to events and official data collected during the first three weeks of the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 crisis, it is imperative to step back and review locations of two Malaysian Airline Boeings involved in this event.

 

The plane  that is “missing,” according to Malaysia Airlines and its international investigative team, is a Boeing 777-2 registration 9M-MRO. It operated March 8th as flight MH370 Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.  Needing discussion and further reference is a Boeing 777-2, also owned by Malaysia Airlines, Registration 9M-MRQ.

 

To prevent confusion in presenting data on these two aircraft, 9M-MRO will be called “O” (the missing plane) and 9M-MRQ will be called “Q” (the other suspect aircraft).

 

Some might have reviewed the flight history of MH370 and flights between Kuala Lumpur and Beijing before this humanitarian crisis.  Note that before this crisis, FlightAware, a preferred flight information service, did not record/and or track for public view flights for Malaysia Airlines flights originating in Beijing.

 

History of 9M-MRO – ‘O’

 

Below is the history and location of “O” in days before March 8th,  according to LIBHOMERADAR.org, with UTC times converted to MYT, Malaysia time.

 

Between March 6th and 7th, “O” operated as flights MH72 and MH73. It flew from Kuala Lumpur to Hong Kong and back to Kuala Lumpur. 

 

On March 7th, , the day before the disappearance, “O” departed Kuala Lumpur at 12:54 am to Beijing as MH370. 

 

At 3 hours into a 5+ hour flight, after reporting its carrier and flight information, there was another report of “O” operating in the area, without an assigned flight or associated airline attached to it.

 

On March 7th “O” flew back from Beijing to Kuala Lumpur as flight MH371.  It remained at the Kuala Lumpur Airport until it departed for its now infamous flight, making contact with radar at 12:45 am on March 8th.

History of 9M-MRQ – ‘Q’

 

Below is a short history of “Q” in the days before the “missing” plane crisis. 

 

Note: The history and dates of flights listed for MRQ show the flight that was in very high demand.  It made several flights per day. In weeks before the crisis, it took no more than 1 day off. 

 

On March 5th, the aircraft “Q” flew into Kuala Lumpur from Beijing as flight MH371. Then, it was not operated again until the March 9th when it took over for the infamous missing plane and flew out as MH370 (as seen in the chart below). 

 

Malaysia Airlines and this aircraft Q broke routine here. Aircraft Q It had been left unused at Kuala Lumpur Airport from March 5th through March 9th according to flight records.  This means that plane “Q’ was also in Kuala Lumpur the day MH370 vanished. Was this aircraft intentionally brought into Kuala Lumpur in anticipation of its need? Could it have been involved?

Timeline Beginning March 8

 

The previous section proved to be the easy part of creating this timeline.  Reports regarding exacting where MH370 was on radar and what it was doing have not been that easy, as the story continues to change.

 

A timeline of events gathered from multiple sources, with times and dates have been converted here to Malaysian time (MYT) are below.

 

12:41 am: Flight MH370 plane “O” departs Kuala Lumpur (KLIA), from Terminal M, Gate C 1. 
 

01:20 am: Communication was lost with Vietnam control department in Ho Chi Minh City (1), the same time that the flight vanished from FLightRadar24.

 

02:40 am: Flight MH370 lost contact with the Subang air traffic control near Kuala Lumpur. (1)

 

This is where the exact time ends. After this point, multiple differing official reports began to be presented.

 

March 8 report: Vietnam reports a signal detected from the plane was 120 nautical miles (140 miles; 225 kilometers) southwest of Vietnam’s southernmost Ca Mau province (2) MH370 climbed to 45,000 feet soon after it disappeared from civilian radar and turned sharply toward the west, according to a preliminary assessment by a person familiar with the data, according to a March 15th Report. (3)

 

March 9: Radar from March 9th for the 2nd plane “Q” shows its altitude of 49,000 feet and making a sharp turn at 1:20 am.

 

Investigators examined data transmitted from the plane’s Rolls-Royce engines, reportedly showing it descended 40,000 feet in the span of a minute, according to a senior American official briefed on the investigation.  Investigators, however, do not believe those readings are accurate because the aircraft would most likely have taken longer to fall such a distance. (3)

 

At this point, it seems that information began being reported from a different plane, defying logic.

 

March 11th report: The prime minister confirmed that Malaysian air force defense radar picked up traces of the plane turning back westwards, crossing over Peninsular Malaysia into the northern stretches of the Strait of Malacca. (8)

 

March 15th report: “From this point onwards the Royal Malaysian Air Force’s primary radar data showed that an aircraft, which was believed, but not confirmed, to be MH370 did indeed turn back. It then flew in a westerly direction back over Peninsular Malaysia before turning northwest. Up until the point at which it left military primary radar coverage, these movements are consistent with deliberate action by someone on the plane.” (7)

 

March 15th report: The radar track, that the Malaysian government has not released but says it provided to the United States and China, showed the plane then descended unevenly to 23,000 feet, below normal cruising levels, as it approached the densely populated island of Penang. There, officials believe, the plane turned from a southwest-bound course, climbed to a higher altitude, and flew northwest over the Strait of Malacca toward the Indian Ocean. (3)

 

LIBERHOMERADAR states last contact with “O” MH370 was near Bangkok, Thailand on March 7. (See two images below.)

 

 

March 24th report: Military radar tracking showed the missing aircraft changed altitude after making a sharp turn over the South China Sea as it headed towards the Straits of Malacca, A source close to the investigation states that the plane flew as low as 12,000 feet at some point before vanishing from the radar. (4)

 

The flight path of MH370 as of March 24th. (5)

 

March 8 

March 8, 6:30 am: Residents of the remote Maldives island of Kuda Huvadhoo in Dhaal Atoll saw a “low flying jumbo jet”, the same morning the Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 “disappeared.”(6) These accounts are among the only evidence that exists regarding the crisis. The mysterious and sordid Diego Garcia island, south of where the islanders sighted a jumbo, is a military base with a sizeable landing strip, US military personnel, and one of the black sites where the US has secretly transported and detained so-called terrorists. 

The Maldives islander eyewitnesses were then highly discredited. First, MH370 investigative officials accused them of lying. Malay officials were told to say that. (See: MH370 CIA Cover-Up: Military Tells Malaysia To Say Maldives Lied About Plane Sightings (Map)) Then, the U.S. military propaganda contributor for ABC national news, Stephen Ganyard, smiled as he discredited the islanders and attempted to convince the public that islanders would not know what they saw. This weekend, however, independent reporter John Holloway contacted one of the persons who witnessed the jumbo jet there and presented his findings in the video below.

 

March 8, 8:11 am:  Inmarsat states last satellite communications handshake occurred along a 40 degree angle from its satellite.  Inmarsat stated they concluded beyond doubt the location was at southernmost end of the projected arc over the southern Indian Ocean.

  • Thank you for this very useful timeline. It seems to me that everything is consistent with “O” being the only plane in play. Could you explain why I’m wrong on that? I gather the northwest route was a red herring. Are the sightings in the Maldives and the “conclusion” that the plane crashed west of Perth inconsistent (e.g., not enough range for both)? If so, couldn’t one or the other conjecture simply be wrong?

    • If you look in maldives news, there is a story about a mine type object washing up on baahar beach in the maldives… Google it.. Now whats crazier is that this so called mine is actually a fire suppression bottle from a boeing jets wheel well.. This story has been suppressed all over… Verify it tho cuz its legit.. Something is certainly wrong…

  • PeterPan

    Thank you for the professionalism

  • DEB…First of all I just want to applaud your terrific Investigative Work.
    You truly are a gift to BIN and we are all so grateful for all that you do. I for one am very grateful and thankful.

    Still trying to figure out how all this fits in with “Diego Garcia” and the Clone of this plane in Tel Aviv and even the one in Lourdes France…..and as a long shot ….even the article that was “debunked” ,but then that debunking “de-bunked”‘ regarding Phillip Wood sending a Text from Diego Garcia.
    Add in now Plane “Q” which is still a complete mystery as well .

    Well …then I discovered this Comment on the YT Video you had provided .

    Perhaps you could check into the “ITINERARY ” of WILL and KATE around that time-line:

    This …could be yet one MORE “angle” never considered , especially when it was a UK Satelitte Company giving the “Official ” word of it having crashed into the Indian Ocean….

    COMMENT FROM YOUTUBE:

    John.. I think they saw a BA flight coming over carrying Prins William and Kate.
    BA has the same colours as MH.

    But I assume you know about their sudden visit to the Maledives. I believe Diego was shut down for their arrival and transfer.
    My theory is the MH got shot down for flying under the radar in an area where the Royal British family was coming in.
    No way the extra tight security around that event would miss a flight in thay airspace.
    I just think that it’s being covered up because they can never justify shooting down so many innocent without hard overwelming proof that the flight was a threat.
    And they don’t have their case ready yet or know that we won’t get their evidence since they made a mistake and someone took the flight down in panic.
    So they’re buying time or leading us on and making us believe there was a fire sensitive cargo to stage the accident or frame a pilot for a hijack. 

    THOUGHTS??

    • How very kind of you… Thank you.

      Yes, I was aware of the British Royal visit to Maldives allegation. Horrid possibility, as most all are, but this one makes sense, too. The Brits declined an invitation to Beijing briefing last week, as i’d mentioned in one of my articles. UK satellite, UK-owned island… Thanks again.

    • Thank you very much for your kind compliment, Liberty.

      Please see: Royal Couple’s MH370-Crisis-Diego Garcia-Area Luxury Holiday /events/2014/04/royal-couples-mh370-crisis-diego-garcia-area-luxury-holiday-2432906.html

      And also: rince William Secret 3-Week ‘Military Tour’: MH370-Diego Garcia? /international/2014/04/prince-williams-3-wk-mh370-diego-garcia-sar-military-tour-2480606.html

      The facts include:
      The trip to the Maldives even surprised the Royal family. William, a Search and Rescue Captain in the Royal Air Force, was in the middle of a training program. The story was there was a 1-week break in the course, so he suddenly decided to holiday for 1 wk in the Maldives – then would go back for his course before the planned Pa. Asia tour. He did not, however return, according to media sources that claimed he spent the next 3 weeks on a tour in the area – and went straight from that into his tour of NZ and Aust. with Kate and baby who met him.

      See in the 2nd article how the media could not keep up and were contradicting the sequence of events and even the planes he and Kate used. It seems far more likely to me that he was brought into the picture to participate rather than his flight being the reason the jet (whichever one the 239 passengers actually boarded) was shot down.

      If there had not been 2 jets used, I might agree with the shot down theory. This sophisticated operation was far better planned than that, in my opinion.

      William spent over seven-and-a-half years of full-time service with British armed forces. The British armed forces have been involved in rendering and torturing ***missing persons**** at Diego Garcia. Please see: New Chilling MH370 Diego Garcia Links /international/2014/04/new-ghost-mh370-links-to-diego-garcia-2480676.html

      I think the only threat were passengers – many millions of dollars worth of intellectual property that was en route to be handed over to China for cutting edge surveillance that the US has already stated in Congress was a threat to US national security. Secret ops were already conducting Operation Shotgiant against China in a cyber war. (Please see: MH370: US Cyber Warfare Targets China In ‘Operation Shotgiant’ /events/2014/03/malaysia-airlines-you-wont-believe-how-nsa-us-corp-gov-targeted-hauwei-2432846.html)

      Why was there a sudden gate change for the aircraft the passengers boarded? Did they actually board the Boeing the world’s been told they boarded – or the switcheroo Boeing brought in specifically for this purpose?

  • I feel the passengers were taken off plane at diego Garcia the scientists left on board and then plane flown to a secret base on border of india-pakistan for further modification then Israeli-now use on iran nuke sites. a second plane is in a hanger in tel-aviv to be used elsewhere..possibly in Europe somewhere at same time. india and Pakistan regions are near china and Russia and have no adequate usa -eu or british satellite to get into this region now…so the planes can take of undetected and air traffic control or satelites will not be able to tell what the destination is or what the planes actually carry

    • I agree with the first part of your feeling. I also hope more people will view the passengers as “Missing persons” and remember that the plane they were on was hijacked for a reason. Thank you.

  • mitch51

    Deborah, thank you SO much for being reality based. It is what makes your articles so good.

    Is there any way that you could put on a writing seminar for Live Free or Die and Ducklos and teach them that if they also write reality based articles instead of their FEEEEER POOOOORN© crap we may read theirs, too?

  • Whatever..You will never know the truth just like 911…

  • Thank you, great research…consider this…

    Too much deception is going on in regard to MH370. Something is terribly wrong at the very highest levels here.

    Appears Inmarsat and/or the Malaysian government is deliberately lying about the possession of Inmarsat source data.

    According to the acting Malaysian Minister of Transportation Hishammuddin Hussein,

    The raw data is with (satellite company) Inmarsat, not with Malaysia, not with Australia, not with Malaysia Airlines, so if there is any request for this raw data to be made available to the public, it

    must be made to Inmarsat…
    ” (1)

    According to Inmarsat,

    which owns the satellites, insists that the data has already been released to investigators.
    ” (1)

    Somebody is lying here and the world needs to be concerned.

    Further,

    Australian officials heading the search in the Southern Indian Ocean tell CNN they don’t have the raw data, either.
    ” (1)

    Let us put this into perspective by mining the thoughts of comments made regarding the referenced news article.

    Gail stated,

    If Inmarsat handed over the data, a logical question would be “to whom?” “Give me a name.” Not a country’s name; not an organization’s name; but a person’s name.
    ” Gail received 22 UP votes. (1)

    Shortly before that, steamrollers61 stated:

    Why would a company spend all that money on searching if they didn’t even have the raw date? That seems a bit irresponsible to me.
    ” steamrollers61 got 5 UP votes (1)

    What is my point?

    Since Gail asked for the real name of the person that received the raw data, she stumbled upon an extremely senstive highly valuable question. Apparently, CNN does not want anyone to ask this question again.

    The other brilliant question was by steamrollers61. He has every right to state that irresponsibility is present because the source data was not vetted as legitimate before the multi-million dollar search began.

    To make matters more MSM opaque, CNN closed comments quickly after Gail and steamrollers61 posted their outstanding comments.

    It means the Malaysian government needs to be removed from the MH370 investigation because they are too incompetent to perform under ICAO aircraft accident investigation standards.

    Make certain to sort the comments by earliest date [Not best nor oldest] and then you will be able to quickly find my referenced comments.
