glen different plot.
The one with the 270 deg RIGHT turn was a track plot. The one to which I refer is a different radar plot and was not a simple computer plot. It first surfaced via a photograph of the radar plot at a Chinese family briefing. The same plot was subsequently released by the Malaysians with Reuters as one source.
This radar plot is the one showing the last trace at 295/200 together with all the RPs and various FIR and sub region boundaries.
