MH370 Down
Captain Fred:
How about this: I just read a Boeing report warning that the computer system on the 777-200 and 300 ER's could be compromised because of vulnerabilities of the system. This compromise could come from the passenger use of the on board computer system. Hmmm interesting.

What? ??? What on board computer system does a passenger have access to. I'm definitely missing something here.

StevenK:
I feel sorry for all the families involved.
The roller-coaster journey they are on is too much to even think about.
They keep getting told one thing, then something different.
Its just false hope that there giving them.
OK so its mainly the news that is giving this information but still.
Look at the news a few nights back when they said the Chinese Satellite had "possible" images of the downed aircraft.
Today I hear that those pictures should have never been released... Why should they have never been released??
Then I hear that the satellite images are not the downed aircraft as they were taken hours before the aircraft went missing.
I mean come on. At times like this the news needs to get facts. Not some bull **** from some "other source"
I really do feel for the families and love ones because they are on one hell of a journey.
