Former Airline CEO Claims US Military Shot Down MH370 Near Diego Garcia
A second senior airline industry source has revealed his belief that there is some sort of conspiracy behind the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370. As The Herald Sun reports, Emirates president and CEO Sir Tim Clark made world headlines in October when he revealed his doubts about the fate of the missing plane, which disappeared early in the morning of March 8 this year. Now a second senior airline industry source has voiced his doubts about the fate of the plane, with the even wilder claim that the Boeing 777 may have been shot down by US military personnel who were fearing a September 11-style attack on the US Navy base on Diego Garcia.
Now a second senior airline industry source has voiced his doubts about the fate of the plane, with the even wilder claim that the Boeing 777 may have been shot down by US military personnel who were fearing a September 11-style attack on the US Navy base on Diego Garcia.The former boss of Proteus Airlines, Marc Dugain, put forward his theory that the Malaysia Airlines plane crashed near the remote Indian Ocean island in a recent edition of Paris Match.Dugain speculated that the plane’s computers may have been subject to a remote hacking, or an on-board fire, which prompted a diversion from its flight path.Diego Garcia is a British territory but has been used as a significant US military base and refuelling stop since the 1970s. It is currently home to 1700 military personnel and 1500 civilian contractors.
Many conspiracy theories about the island have been aired since the disappearance of MH370, but the US government has repeatedly denied that the plane came anywhere near the remote territory, which is 3600km from Africa’s east coast and 4700km northwest of Australia.Dugain said the downing of the plane may have come about for a range of different reasons, including the possibility that it may have been shot out of the sky by the US military, who were fearing a September 11-style attack on the base.He pointed to the testimony of residents of the Maldives, who reported seeing an airliner travelling towards Diego Garcia on March 8, but whose claims were largely dismissed.Dugain said a fisherman on Kudahuvadhoo island told him a “huge plane ... with red and blue stripes on a white background” had flown overhead at a low altitude.The former airline boss claimed he had also been shown pictures of a strange object that had washed up on a beach of neighbouring Baraah island.According to Dugain, two aviation experts and a military officer believed the object was an empty Boeing fire extinguisher, but the mystery object was subsequently seized by the Maldives military.In the Paris Match story, Dugain also appeared to dismiss the “handshake technology” evidence supplied by the UK company Inmarsat, saying that such organisations were “very close to intelligence agencies”.The wild claims come as grieving family members of MH370 passengers accused the Chinese government of failing to provide them with regular updates on the search for the aircraft, which was carrying 239 people at the time that it disappeared.About 30 people, many of them elderly, took part in a recent protest in Beijing in which they demanded to speak to government officials.“My son is alive and I want to know what the government is doing to find him,” said Liu Dianyun, the mother of one of the passengers.Australia’s Joint Agency Coordination Centre recently announced that it had scoured 20 per cent of the search area where MH370 is thought to have gone down.On Sunday investigators said they could finish scouring the priority zone search area by May if there were no delays with vessels, equipment or weather.Search efforts will continue during the festive period.The Fugro Equator is scheduled to depart for Fremantle on Wednesday after finishing its current survey, and the GO Phoenix continues its underwater search.More than 200,000 sq km has been surveyed and 11,000 sqkm of the sea floor has been searched.

Flight MH370 downed by US: Former airline chief
CAPE TOWN — Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 was shot down by the United States as it approached a secretive US military base on Diego Garcia Island in the remote Indian Ocean, according to French writer and former airline chief Marc Dugain.
The Inquisitor states the writer believes there is a massive cover-up involving several countries.
As the search for MH370 began, following the March 8 disappearance of the plane this youtube user Montagraph’s attempt to solve the mysterious flight gave us all goosebumps
He also alluded to Diego Garcia, the remote island of just 17 square miles owned by Great Britain, but leased by the United States for use as a military installation — as being a key piece to the puzzle.
The base has been shrouded in mystery, reportedly being used as a secret destination for Al Qaeda-linked prisoners interrogated by the US under the so-called “extraordinary rendition” programme.
In a startling revelation made on French radio, the former head of Proteus Airlines Dugain say he was warned against investigating the links between Diego Garcia and Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 by a shadowy “Western intelligence officer”.
Dugain says the popular theory that Malaysia Airlines plane was the victim of a high-tech hijack is most likely correct.
He believes hijackers commandeering the plane’s electronic communication and navigation systems electronically then flew toward the Indian Ocean, the place where the bulk of the search for flight MH370 took place.
But Gugain says what he finds hard to believe is that the US base, with the technological sophistication of Diego Garcia failed to sight the Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777-200 as it approached.
He says it did in fact spot the plane and fearing a 9/11-style suicide crash attack, Dugain believes US forces on Diego Garcia may have then shot the plane out of the sky.
Just a few days after Flight MH370 disappeared, Maldives residents said they had spotted a low flying jumbo on the morning of March 8, which they believe was the mystery Malaysia Airlines plane.
In a presstv report Dugain said he had interviewed the mayor of another nearby island where a piece of debris that, allegedly, was identified as a fire extinguisher of the type used in Boeing aircraft washed up two weeks after the disappearance. But Maldives authorities are said to have “seized the supposed fire extinguisher”.
The Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777-200ER, which was carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew members, remains a mystery after vanishing from radar screens early on March 8 less than an hour after taking off from Kuala Lumpur on a scheduled flight to Beijing, China — and to date not a single item or piece of debris belong to the missing plane has been found or confirmed as found. — Traveller24.
