Wikipedia — Malaysia Airlines Flight 370

en.wikipedia.org · living page · read 18 September 2026

Crowd-maintained digest of the public case: 239 dead, 9M-MRO, 8 March 2014, KUL–PEK, cause undetermined. Useful as a citation map into ATSB, MOT, Inmarsat and Ocean Infinity. Not a primary source.

Captain’s home flight-simulator files

Imaged by RMP · restored coordinates mapped by commentators

Files exist. A restored route into the southern Indian Ocean has been published. The 2018 report did not treat this as a reconstructed plan.

TimelineConfirmed1 Oct 2014 00:00 UTC

Bathymetry and underwater search begin

October 2014

Fugro vessels and partners begin wide-area bathymetric mapping and towed-sonar search of a defined 7th-arc corridor.

DSTG Bayesian flight-path analysis

Defence Science and Technology Group, Australia

A probabilistic reconstruction of MH370’s path from SATCOM metadata. Output is a distribution along the 7th arc, not a pin in the map.

ClaimDisputed

Home-simulator coordinates are not an official finding of planning

Files exist. Commentators map a southern route. The 2018 report did not convert that into premeditation.

Inmarsat signalling-unit log for 9M-MRO

Perth Ground Earth Station · 7–8 March 2014

The table of channel, BTO, BFO and message type that underpins every arc on every search map. Released by Malaysia with Inmarsat notes.

Inmarsat signalling-unit logs for 9M-MRO

Perth Ground Earth Station · 7–8 March 2014

The raw-ish tables of channel, BTO, BFO and message type that underpin every arc on every search map. Released by Malaysia with Inmarsat explanatory notes.

Inside the Investigation: The Search for MH370 Truth

7NEWS · Peter Foley, Joe Hattley

Former lead search officials on internal protocol, sonar-mapping mistakes, and why a debris field can still be found. An Australian operational view, not a cockpit narrative.

HypothesisInconsistent

Northern corridor

Inconsistent with BFO sign and with African debris

Early public maps showed a northern Inmarsat ring. BFO and later debris on western Indian Ocean coasts disfavour it.

ClaimUnverified

A China IP is not a finding that Beijing ran the 9 March hack

Routing fact · operator unknown

CSM said exfiltrated mail went to an IP address in China. Headlines called it a Chinese hack. The agency did not publish a named operator. Compromised machines, third-party infrastructure and a false flag remain live. Not established, not ruled out.

Aurora Orion contract FA8620-12-C-3027

~$86.56m aggregated · completion extending to 2019

Public award aggregation for the BIG SAFARI / Orion definitive contract. Transaction-level FPDS history — especially modifications August 2013–March 2014 — is still open. Budget authority, ceilings and obligations are not the same as cash spent.

OrganisationConfirmed

Australian Transport Safety Bureau

Lead of the 2014–2017 southern Indian Ocean search

Drew and exhausted the 120,000 km² underwater box. Operational-search report is the engineering baseline for later Ocean Infinity boxes.

Boeing–NAVAIR delivery order signed 4 March 2014

$955,853.54 · N0001914D0012 · engineering/technical support · St Louis

Confirmed public contracting record, four days before MH370. Department of the Navy, Naval Air Systems Command, NAICS aircraft manufacturing, PSC R425 professional engineering/technical support. Subject of the order is not in the public header. Chronology is not a collection event.

Lockheed Martin Compact Fusion Reactor

Public Skunk Works programme · Thomas McGuire · not an MH370 finding

Confirmed as a public Lockheed Skunk Works fusion project, discussed openly around 2014, with patents including US9947420 (magnetic-field plasma confinement; filing family 2 April 2014). Quiet Exodus treats it as the power core of a clandestine spacetime platform. That leap is the thesis, not the patent.

Malaysian summary of possible MH370 debris

ICAO Annex 13 Team · updated 2017

Itemised list of wreckage recovered on western Indian Ocean coasts, with confirmation classes: confirmed, almost certain, highly likely, likely.

HypothesisInconsistent

Manufactured plasma orbs in alleged footage

Not adopted. Drive backup records a negative scientific finding.

Ashton Forbes has claimed laboratory-scale manufactured plasma spheres. The Ashton Hall backup concludes Mead/AFRL propulsion literature does not support metre-scale autonomous plasma orbs.

MH370: The Plane That Disappeared

Netflix · three episodes · March 2023

Louise Malkinson’s three-part series gives one episode to each of three tellings: the pilot, a Russian hijack (Jeff Wise), and a US intercept (Florence de Changy). Families and Malaysia Airlines crisis staff are interviewed. It is a survey of hypotheses, not a finding.

EvidenceConfirmed8 Mar 2014 00:00 UTC

Two stolen European passports

Italian and Austrian documents · two Iranian travellers

Yes — two Iranian men were on board. They travelled on stolen European passports (Italian and Austrian), not Iranian documents. The official investigation treated them as likely asylum seekers and did not adopt a terrorism finding.

PersonOfficial finding

Zaharie Ahmad Shah

Pilot in command · MH370

Last attributed radio call: “Good night Malaysian three seven zero.” Home simulator files exist; the 2018 report did not treat them as a reconstructed plan. Who was flying after IGARI is open.
