The Maldives sighting would have been 1 hour after the last ping.
Wrong and wrong

MK Ultra is to do with frequencies... Into signals... Using codes... Turned back into a predetermined wavelength... Causing people to "blackout"... And do something someone else designed, wanted or wrote...
That is Possession...
Actually I already said it was my opinion, never once said fact...
No wrong again... You commented on my post about suicides not always having precursors or notes. The fact that even just one has occurred w/o precursor or note proves my point. And by the way, the stats come from very reputable sources. I don't have to prove them because people much smarter than I already have.
Finally you cannot prove those statistics you pulled up are a fact either, they're just statistics!!!
Not based on every single case ever known or unknown past present & future!!!
So it's actually you trying to "push" your opinion as fact!!!
Proof???
So if I missed something show me this "readily available information" regarding a political statement the pilot has supposedly made!!!
Actually F.S don't need the motive because they're the target of my theory, not the mastermind!!!
That was a good try though!!!

So by your evidence,( mind you, I did not claim that the news source i posted is the truth and that's where the plane is.)
you say that plane did go down in flames. Right? We'll wait and watch.

That is 11:15 UTC and MH370 did not take off until 16:42 UTC therefore the sighting in the maldives was made before MH370 ever took off.
I think you have your dates and time offset wrong.
KL UTC +8
Maldives UTC + 5
MH370 took off Kuala Lumpur at 16:42 UTC
The Madives sighting was 6:15 local +5 hours = 11:15 UTC
The last satellite ping was 00:19 UTC
Go figure...
Maldives local 6:15 - 5 offset = 1:15 UTC. (It's ahead of UTC) It's about an hour late.
370 took off 00:42 local - 8 (UTC offset) = 16:42 UTC
Angus Houston, the head of a joint agency co-ordinating the search in the southern Indian Ocean, said on Wednesday that the Australian navy's Ocean Shield has picked up two more underwater signals that could be from Flight 370.
A vessel searching for signals possibly from a flight data recorder has once again picked up two transmissions in the afternoon yesterday and late last night.
But the signals are weaker than that detected during an earlier search.
Australian officials said just minutes ago the vessel Ocean Shield picked up signals at 4:27pm local time yesterday and also at 10:17pm.
The transmission picked up in the afternoon lasted 5 minutes 32 seconds and the one last night lasted 7 minutes.

It is ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) which means you have to add five hours (+5 hrs) to get GMT/UTC
The aircraft took off at 16:42 UTC
The Maldives sighting was 11:15 UTC
edit on 8-4-2014 by sy.gunson because: (no reason given)
(CNN) -- The signals picked up by Ocean Shield are consistent with a flight data recorder, said Angus Houston, head of the Australian-led search effort. The search area is now "reduced and much more manageable."
As with most stories,, Tonight's Episode,, starts out innocent enough,,,
Captain Matthews said the black box's beacon could operate for a maximum of 45 days.

Yes, it depends a lot on the age of the battery, and this battery was near the maximum allowable age as it was supposed to be replaced in a few months, though there's a conflicting report that it was supposed to be replaced in 2012 and possibly wasn't, so I'm not sure...in either case, it's not a new battery that would tend to last a lot longer.

It depends on varying things though.
Talk about conflicting information, but none of it is good for battery life. The stories conflict with each other, because the batteries last about 6 years, so if the units were replaced in 2012, then they should need to be replaced again around 2018, not 2014, which sort of makes it look like Malaysian Airlines might be lying about the battery maintenance schedule, and if they are, the batteries are 2 years past their expiration, instead of a few months before it.
the clock's ticking: Their batteries are not guaranteed to work for more than 30 days, and Friday marks day 28.
And they may not even make it that long: The recorders had been scheduled for battery replacements in 2012, but they were never returned for the overhaul, the manufacturer told CNN on Friday.
That revelation leaves three possibilities, said Anish Patel, president of beacon manufacturer Dukane Seacom of Sarasota, Florida:
• Malaysia Airlines could have replaced the old pingers with new ones;
• The airline could have hired another company to perform the necessary maintenance;
• It could have done nothing.
If it chose the third, and the original batteries were still driving the pingers when the Boeing 777-200ER disappeared from radar screens, their life likely would have dropped from 30 days to 25 or 20 days, Patel said...
The pingers would not die immediately but would continue to emit signals with "progressively lower output levels until the unit shuts down," he said.
Malaysia Airlines did not respond to a question from CNN about the devices. But the airline said in an e-mail last week, "We are unaware of any issue with the ULB (underwater locator beacon) or its batteries."
"This battery is not replaceable," the airline said. "The battery is built-in inside the (pinger) and installed by OEM -- Original Equipment Manufacturer," the airline said.
On Saturday, the Malaysia Airlines CEO said the acoustic pinger batteries on the airlines' black boxes were due for replacement in June 2014.
"We can confirm there is a maintenance program. Batteries are replaced prior to expiration," Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said.
