7. It could be the airline companies or the FAA

To prevent the use of the name in case of a crash.

8. So? It was two years before, and he did a bunch of other ones, too.
Some people get worked up over the most trivial crap.

9. wow. chilling. what's weird is that I read they have ruled out explosion
because there was an oil slick on the water. But, I guess if you want a plane down there are other means.
Right now they think it just was navigating through huge storms manually and you can't really do that by radar
since they pop up in seconds.

10. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
someone registered a domain for the missing plane's flight number on September 30, 2007.

How many other airlines have flights with the same number? This was registered nearly two years ago. Plueeeeeeeeeeez
