The BBC’s Rupert Wingfield-Hayes finds out how to change a flight path in a cockpit simulator. A Malaysia Airlines flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing went missing on the morning of Saturday 8 March with 239 passengers and crew on board. Malaysian officials say the plane was intentionally diverted and could have flown on either a northern or southern arc from its last known position. More than 20 nations have been asked to help search for flight MH370, and evaluate radar and satellite data.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Does anybody remember the story from last year where the guy used a flight simulator and an Android app to show it was possible to remotely take control of the aircraft? Not to go all tin foil hat but find it interesting the coincidence between this and the nature of the work of the 20 Freescale Semiconductor employees on board.

It's not that easy, because if it was, I'd go out learn to be a pilot in a week and earn £30,000k+ a year. He has no idea what he's inputting, he doesn't even know where it will take him (remember 'terrorists' can fly 747's into building's, twin towers + number 7 with precise accuracy). It's so simple to be a pilot these days, that's why it takes years to become one! Next I'm going to learn how to ride a submarine with the BBC's 'The idiots guide to hijacking a submarine.'

To change a Flight Path intentionally or unintentionally is not the issue now. The issue is WHERE is the Plane? To kill a human life, to kill a nation to go to war we utilize to the max all high tech equipments n gadgets. Yet we are unable to find a commercial plane, conveniently all countries now have limitation(s).

What kind of circumstance would require the pilot or co-pilot to turn off a transponder whilst in flight?

They did this in an Airbus through, which is different in some ways.

Thanks for showing the world how to hijack a plane a turn off a transponder just what we need, copy cats! Why can you turn off a transponder it should always be on surely! Not something we should have learned from 911 then?
