Whoopdy-doo. Some entry in some database that says the plane is stored in Israel?
Who entered the data?
Who last actually saw it?
Does anyone know why it was bought, or why (presumably) it's being stored? - No.
Why is it so unusual that it's being stored in Israel?
Is is so suspicious that a company actually bought a plane from an airline? - No.
Who bought it? GA Telesis, that's who, a huge company that does exactly that, buys planes and uses them for parts or leases them as fleet planes etc, and does all sorts of stuff. For them to buy and store a plane is completely usual business. They have a billion dollars worth of assets under management.
This is a pretty dumb conspiracy theory, because if you step back and take a look, nothing unusual has happened here at all.
Incidentally, my original reference to that plane was:
Speaking of strange, why has Israel had an identical looking 777, in the exact same paint scheme as the missing MH370, warehoused in Tel Aviv since November 2013? That's a lot of cash to leave sitting idle for 'no reason'.
http://www.bollyn.com/are-the-israelis-planning-another-9-11-using-the-missing-777/How did you come to say that I didn't provide a link?
There's no 'conspiracy theory' here. Just some people pointing out that there is an identical model 777, in the same paintjob as MH370, sitting in a hangar in Tel Aviv. When you have a disappeared plane with 230 people on board, and various other international situations that may also be relevant, and so far NO SOLID EVIDENCE WHATSOEVER of what ultimately happened to MH370 after it left Malaysian radar space, such details as a perfect 'body double' for MH370, are absolutely worth noting.
What they may or may not mean, and whether any solid connections turn up later, are separate issues.
As for people speculating on possible connections - of course all such speculations involve conspiracy theories - by definition. It's very silly to dismiss them
because they are conspiracy theories.
The tree of possibilities, at top level is quite limited:
MH370 missing because:
1. Fault/misshap/fire onboard.
2. Deliberate action involving only one or both pilots.
3. Deliberate action involving persons/groups external to the plane. May or may not also involve pilot(s).
#1 can perhaps be discounted. Someone entered new waypoints, made no radio messages, but the plane kept flying and systems kept pinging Inmarsat for hours, etc. I don't believe the 'climbed to 45K feet' part, since the climb rate quoted is impossible - must be a radar systems artifact, likely due to cessation of transponder data feed. This scenario is only possible if somehow both pilots and everyone else lost consciousness very suddenly - no chance for the pilots to grab oxygen masks. Which they do have.
If there was poison/incapacitating gas... but then it becomes Case #3.
Only thing I can think of, is pilots became aware of a problem in the hold, set new waypoints to get back to a runway, then BOTH went down to the hold to deal with the situation. And while there (with no breathing equipment) were overcome by fumes or there was a hull breach. Then everyone else lost consciousness too, AND the fire or whatever had killed ACARS then did no further damage so the plane could fly on under autopilot. BUT... then how come the final turn south much later? And they BOTH left the cockpit? This really doesn't work.
#2 is ridiculous. Anyone wanting to suicide with a planeload of people will (does) just do it, not stealthily wait till crossing an airspace border then vanish the plane. Anyone wanting to make demands with the plane as hostages wont act that way either. Even sudden complete insanity seems very unlikely due to the calculated actions.
#3 leads into a very messy branching maze of vague possibilities, made worse by the near total absence of clues.
By definition, this entire branch involves conspiracy. Anyone who rejects all consideration of #3 on principle "because conspiracy" is frankly suffering from a serious cognitive defect.
To quote Sherlock Holmes (Doyle) "When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."
#1 is still a faint, faint possibility. But finding things like a 'plane body double' hidden away; someone trying to fly a no-transponder 777 into Dutch airspace during the nuclear summit meeting recently; the attempts to paint the two Iranian refugees onboard as likely hijackers (complete with photoshopped image); the total non-mention in the MSM of Diego Garcia and its long range radars, and many other curious details, certainly aren't helping eliminate #3 from consideration.
