The plane has to be a crash, right? I mean, whether on accident or on purpose, the notion that someone is hiding the plane is just whacky.
It has been nearly two weeks with no sign, what kind of plan would anyone have with such a plane? Wouldn't you think the plan would be to do something with it as soon as possible, because the chances of being found would presumably be great? (even if it has obviously turned out not to be the case).

Always rely on Aussies to do a job right.
I think if they say they've found something then i expect that they have actually found something.
For sure they have found the plane.

Looking that way.
What makes you say that?
Negative, the plane would have arrived by around now. So we can expect an update soon.

I hope they've found it, if only to give closure to the families.

Hopefully they've actually found the plane this time, the whole situation needs some closure to it. Hard to believe they would announce they found "objects related to the aircraft" if they hadn't found actual debris, but this entire ordeal has been anything but typical so far so it wouldn't surprise me..
They're covering it now, if only for a brief breaking news 10 seconds

The fact it's coming from the Australian Prime minister's office. Also the fact that there has been an ongoing calamity in announcements, meaning that nobody else wants to fuck up, especially not the Aussie PM.
Obviously it could be nothing again though.
MSNBC just gave a little blurb and went back to their regularly scheduled programing, lol
They said that it's possible that the objects are completely unrelated to the plane, but I guess that is to be inferred from the headline "objects possibly related". However, the fact that they went that one extra step to clarify is a little telling.

I really hope this is it.
The northern corridor/evading radar/hiding in another plane's shadow/landing at a secret destination/to be used at another time nonsense was always way too out-there and tinfoily for me.
Hopefully we can finally put this to bed and the families can finally find some peace.

Well MSNBC claims that Australia or somebody also cautioned that it might be nothing.

Someone make a new thread immediately if they find it.

Well, it doesn't mean either of them wasn't involved. Can't rule that out until the flight recorders are found.

Considering the amount of junk floating in the ocean these days, it wouldn't surprise me at all.

Yeah the same person (the PM) who announced it also cautioned it could be nothing.
What if what they saw are bodies? Or rafts even... Would you call those debris?
The only chance of anything getting clarified is if we ever find that black box.

If Tony Abbott gets credit for finding this plane then the whole world is crazy town.

Then prepare yourself for conspiracy theories the likes of which you have never experienced before.
If that happened I might become a conspiracy theorist myself
The recorders only have like 30 minutes of data. If they died well before it ran out of fuel than we may never know

Still has other info in it that could help.
After a certain point, they wouldn't have enough fuel to return to land if someone tried to turn back.
Assuming whomever was in control of the plane, be it a hijacker or whatever, wanted to make sure they'd never be caught that's one way to be sure.
Of course it could have been any reason so wait til the black box is found.

It still might not be deliberate.
I think it only has 30 - 60 minutes of audio records, but it will record every other action that occurs in the previous 12 - 24 hours or something like that.
Maybe a series of crazy events happened that lead to a crash.
I'm inwardly hoping that the "objects" related to the search are life rafts carrying survivors.
Damn. I didn't know that...I would think that it would be able to record much, much longer than that.

If you have to crash into the ocean WA seems like a solid choice if you don't want to be eaten by sharks.
