What Happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 - The 5 Scenarios for the Mystery of the Disappearance

Eleven years after the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, with 239 people on board, the mystery remains unsolved. A new search begins on December 30th in the Indian Ocean by the American company Ocean Infinity. At the same time, an aviation security expert presented five realistic scenarios to the Independent: pilot suicide, an attempt by the pilot to hijack the aircraft, hijacking by a passenger or crew member, remote control via cyberattack, and other less likely causes. The first theory focuses on the captain, while the second on a failed attempt to regain control. The remaining scenarios examine the possibility of external intervention or other unforeseen events.
