One gripe is that he didn’t spend enough time debunking some of the far-fetched conspiracy theories that have dogged the story from day one. Neither did he devote enough space to one of the more plausible but seldom-discussed theories: that of the exploding crew oxygen bottle. Some have speculated that the bottle, which houses the supplemental crew oxygen and is located in the avionics compartment in the lower forward fuselage, may have exploded, knocking out the communications equipment (including transponder and ACARS) and causing a cabin decompression — similar to what happened on a Qantas 747 some years ago. The pilots then managed to get a partial re-route into the FMS before succumbing to hypoxia. Eventually the plane passed the last programmed waypoint, then defaulted to heading mode and wandered off into the southern Indian Ocean until running out of fuel. Quest touches on this possibility, but it deserved a few more pages.

THE Australian-led search for MH370 has again been accused of looking in the wrong place for the Malaysia Airlines’ Boeing 777 based on evidence someone was in control of the plane till the very end.
Senior air crash investigator Larry Vance told Channel 9’s 60 Minutes program, a flaperon found on Reunion Island last year and handed over to France for analysis was the strongest clue yet the aircraft was “glided” into the ocean.
