44:20

In Episode 30, Jeff and Andy go deeper than they've ever gone before on a question that's the crux of the whole MH370 mystery. It's a topic which is newly important because a bunch of viral MH370 videos have come out that spend a lot of time discussing it and, they'll argue, are getting it wrong. To help with this important task, the podcast invite…

In Episode 27, Jeff and Andy told you where MH370 could've have landed had it been flown north to Kazakhstan. But the question remains, why? It doesn't make much sense, unless you understand the man who makes the decisions in Russia, and how he sees the world.

How To Make A Plane Disappear 41:15

How do you make something disappear? Nobody understands that better than practitioners of the ancient art of stage magic, who for centuries have used the principles of applied psychology to make seemingly impossible things occur. In today's episode Jeff talks to Ed Dentsel, host of the Unfound podcast, who for years worked as the stage manager for …

Landing 57:10

57:10

If the satcom was hacked and MH370 was taken north, the perpetrators presumably had a plan that ended with them alive, and this presumably involved landing the plane at an airport. But which airport could they have landed at? In Episode 27, Jeff and Andy dig in to realistic runways near the 7th Arc, including Kyzylorda, Shymkent, Taraz, Almaty and …

39:46

After they mathematically analyzed the Inmarsat data to figure out where MH370 ran out of fuel in the southern Indian Ocean, the Australian government hired a Dutch maritime survey company called Fugro to search 23,000 square miles. The work started in October, 2014. By that April, 2015 it was clear that the plane was not in fact in the search area…

Episode 25 of the podcast – a culmination of six months of content – reveals two major capstones that leaves Jeff and Andy confident to announce that they solved the mystery of MH370.

Breakthrough, Part 1 44:50

Over the next two episodes, we’re going to reveal a major break in the case — new data that upends our understanding the case. It’s the first significant break in the case since the final report in 2017. But before we do that, we have to set the stage. For the data to have meaning, you have to understand its context. It has to do with a method of d…

For those following the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 and had already suspected pilot Zaharie Ahmad Shah of hijacking the plane, killing his passengers and himself – the discovery of data on his home flight simulator was the smoking gun. Out of some 600 saved routes on his PC, one resembled the flight that allegedly ended in the South Indi…

It's a story that reads like the plot of reality show. Self-styled adventurer, former State Department employee, self-proclaimed fluent Russian speaker, Blaine Alan Gibson, found dozens of pieces from the doomed Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370. Sometimes with a camera crew in tow. Often in places that had been extensively scoured with a fine-tooth c…

For half a year after MH370’s right-hand flaperon washed ashore on La Réunion, no other pieces of aircraft debris turned up. Was that remarkable piece a one-off? And then, suddenly, everyting changed. The following February an American adventure-seeker named Blaine Alan Gibson found a trianguler piece of a with the words “No Step” on a sandbar in M…

On July 29, 2015, a worker in the French territory of Réunion Island discovered MH370’s flaperon, the first confirmed piece of wreckage from the missing plane. It seemed like case closed, that the doomed plane crashed near the seventh arc in the Indian Ocean. But not everything added up. Between reverse drift models and sea life that was growing in…

Debris 30:56

By mid-2015, the search for MH370 had entered a kind of limbo. The designated seabed search area had been scanned without success. So what evidence was there that the plane had really gone south? Attention turned to the topic of floating debris and where it might be found. If the plane had impacted the ocean in the way the Inmarsat data implied — n…

Seven months after MH370 disappeared, ships leased from the Dutch maritime survey company Fugro were at last ready to begin searching the seabed that Australian scientists had defined using data mysteriously transmitted from the aircraft during its final six hours. Fugro’s ships faced a daunting task: searching a vast area, far from land, where aby…

Another One 44:31

If MH370 didn’t fly into the southern Indian Ocean but instead wound up in Kazakhstan, that implied that Russia was behind a sophisticated hijacking plot. Intrigued by the presence on the flight manifest of three Russian-speaking passengers, Jeff had already hired researchers in Russia and Ukraine to look into their background when he learned on Ju…

North 31:46

31:46

Careful analysis of satellite signals sent from MH370 to Inmarsat indicated that the plane had flown into a remote area of the southern Indian Ocean. But another possibility existed. The equipment that MH370 carried and the circumstances under which it operated together created a potential vulnerability that sophisticated hijackers could have explo…

Once the scientists at CSIRO had generated the probability distribution for the plane’s last known location on the 7th arc, the next question they had to answer was: how far did the plane travel from that point before it impacted the water? As we've discussed previously, their goal was to define a search box within which the plane was likely to be …

The Vulnerability 38:01

In what’s sure to be the most controversial episode of the series so far, Jeff and Andy delve into the question of whether MH370 might have had a previously unrecognized security backdoor.

The Pilot 43:12

Within weeks after the disappearance of MH370, one theory of its disappearance had come to the fore: that one of the pilots had seized control of the plane and flown it on a prolonged and sophisticated murder-suicide mission into the southern Indian Ocean. Nothing like it had ever happened before, but there seemed no other way to easily explain the…

Surface Search 35:12

From the first day MH370 went missing, it was the subject of an intense surface search. Planes, ships and satellites scoured millions of square kilometers of ocean, first in the South China Sea, then in the Andaman Sea, then in the remote southern Indian Ocean. Not a single piece was ever spotted. Today we’re going to talk about how the search went…

On March 24, 2014, the Malaysian Prime minister made a shocking announcement: using a new kind of mathematical analysis, scientists at the British satellite communications company Inmarsat had determined conclusively that MH370 had flown into a remote area of the southern Indian Ocean. Because there are no islands in the area, there was no possibil…

Reboot Redux 28:51

The First Law of MH370 is that the closer you look at it, the weirder it gets. A good example of this principle can be found in episode six, in which we explore how exactly the satellite communications system, or satcom, came to be turned off and back on again after the plane disappeared from radar. At first, most observers assumed that an inattent…

This week, the mystery deepens as, in the days after MH370’s disappearance, the Malaysian authorities first deny, then confirm that their military radar detected the missing 777 as it turned back from its planned route to Beijing just a few seconds after it passed the final waypoint in Malaysian airspace. The plane reversed course, flew back over t…
