Malaysian Airlines MH370 contact lost

[GarageYears]

If the wingtip had "fallen off" and the aircraft kept flying (albeit severely compromised), wouldn't you think the crew might have sent out a radio call or two, eh? Anything remotely similar, short of a catastrophic structural failure, wouldn't have rendered the crew silent on the situation I'd wager.

Given the lack of discovery to date and the search areas being looked at, it would seem:

a) All comms was lost with the aircraft at time X
b) The aircraft crashed at some later time X+Y

There were also some oddities related to the passenger list (funky passports), but that fact isn't connected yet...

There, I think I've summed up all 73 pages.
