MH 370 Flew Extra 4 Hours
U.S. investigators suspect that Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 stayed in the air for about four hours past the time it reached its last confirmed location, according to two people familiar with the details and data automatically downloaded and sent to the ground from the Boeing Co. 777's engines as part of a routine maintenance and monitoring program.

Ladies and Gentlemen, it seems as if my theory might be proven to be correct. A witness whom works on an oil rig saw a plane on fire on this plane flight path. The timing and heading was correct. He sent this information with co ordinates to the authorities in Malaysia. Fire now alarm bells will ring. This is speculation yet I think close to events that might have taken place. This witness claims he saw the fire then after a while, there was no fire. If there was a fire and it was the cause of decompression then this is the reason for the fire to have been extinguished. Maybe the fire was the cause of the decompression by weakening the aircraft skin, or else it damaged the wiring who knows. I think all lost coconscious. Maybe the pilots had lost communications as well other instrumentation such as the transponder etc. What if the pilots were trying to turn the plane back to Malaysia and they themselves lost conscious I know of three plane accidents where the crew and passengers lost consciousness and the plane flew until the fuel ran out. This is what I think that happened, told my family and friends after I heard about the guy on the rig testimony. Just a thought and found to share it with you all.
If a fire burned bright enough to be seen from 35,000 ft, it would bring the aircraft down in short order. Along the same lines though, a cockpit fire that compromised several systems or caused the crew to turn off systems may have driven the crew from the cockpit in hopes of fighting their way back in. Unable to take smoke removal measures, the passengers and crew could easily have been overcome regardless of oxygen available. It doesn't take a lot of fire to generate a lot of smoke in an aircraft and if it had abated on its own over time the aircraft could have flown either trimmed or on autopilot until out of fuel.
Oil rig eyewitness of the fireball crash and burn is consistent with an onboard fire, but is not consistent with it then flew on for hours.
There was also no debris found in the vicinity of the fireball/ lost contact /original flight path. A big plane like the 777 would've created a bunch of floating debris.
Plus radar had the plane moving across the Malaysian peninsula, apperently seen by both the Malaysians and the Thai on radar. It's the 'from there' that can potentially more traumatic.

Never mind I like the theory that MH370 pulled up behind SIA68 better ...
Does anyone know how hard it is to change the "ident." For the iff squawk ? Then take on a new A/C flight no?? I think ident is hardware. Anyone confirm?
I got it, a third transponder with a battery that needs to be changed at regular intervals (like an elt battery) But, this third transponder will only operate when weight is off wheels and when both transponders are turned to standby or off. Then the little back up transponder kicks in via harmless battery and says i'm right here with no human intervention.
