Now there are reports that Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 has a strong ‘likelihood’ of being on the bottom of the Indian Ocean. Also, the thought of the plane going down because of mechanical failure is becoming less likely, and terrorist is becoming more likely, especially since the plane’s data reporting system shut down at 1:07 a.m. Saturday, while the transponder transmitting location and altitude shut down at 1:21 a.m manually. This whole Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 has put the families of all the victims in their living hell on earth.

“There is probably a significant likelihood” that the aircraft is now on the bottom of the Indian Ocean, the official said, citing information Malaysia has shared with the United States.
“This is beginning to come together to say that …this had to have been some sort of deliberate act” and not a catastrophic failure, ABC News aviation analyst John Nance told CNN’s Erin Burnett.
White House spokesman Jay Carney didn’t go into details when he discussed the search for the plane Thursday, but he said “some new information that’s not necessarily conclusive” could lead U.S. searchers to the Indian Ocean.
“We are looking at information, pursuing possible leads, working within the investigation being led by the Malaysian government, and it is my understanding that one possible piece of information or collection of pieces of information has led to the possibility that a new search area may be opened,” Carney said.
