Today Show MH370
Well for a start I would have forgotten more about aircraft structures that what you would ever know.
And I'm not saying anything.

You work on / maintain / investigate 777 airframes do you?
Looks like you've said a fair few things actually, hence it drew my attention. A lot of speculation and assumptions looking at a photo of something half a world away, but with the conviction of an expert. At least i'm aware I don't know anything about crashed 777 parts

I see reading comprehension is not your strong suit, and confirming that you do not actually have any specific engineering expertise when it comes to wide body transport category aircraft.
If we need any opinions on washed up 150 parts i'll know who to come to.

And there we went again.... Another TODAY Show interview with more rubbish and unverified statements.
Conspiracy theory's now.... About all governments.

DF.
This guy is going to be either horribly right in his theories or horribly wrong - will be interesting to see which!
He is making comments knowing his theory will never be tested!

It only highlights my opening statement.
Exactly. Who's to say his comments are any more valid than the 'baggage handler' he mentioned. Just because he has never flown an aircraft. The arrogance...

I saw him on CH7 this morning. He gave Thomas a serve about his incompetence and lack of credibility (without mentioning his name, but stating his insignificant background). That immediately gave him 100 credibility points IMO. It's about time somebody debunked Thomas.
So he must be a good guy.
Wasn't too keen on the way he played up to the reporter in the interview. It sort of cheapened his argument. He needs to keep his eye on the ball with the tabloids like 7, 9, and 10. Not to mention the ALPBC.
The good thing is that it appears Thomas is on the nose in the public media if 7 have dumped him.

Just watched that again... Don't know why I did it to myself.
"...us pilots believe..." Umm, are you speaking on behalf of me too are you?
"...lot of stupid information out there...they are either very stupid or..." Mmmmm
"...ATSB expert is not even qualified on the B777..." He can certainly still be qualified to identify a B777 part.
"...I've written about 12 articles for the Telegraph..." And?
Need I go on. I'm sorry, but this guy needs to stop ...

How dare he - so far away from whatever happened to these poor people?
Vainglorious & self aggrandising seem appropriate descriptions.....
Ah, yes - there is a little smiley thingy that also seems appropriate....

And they want to get him back!
He may be experienced, but he really doesn't know how to put 'his' theories forward in a convincing manner, when every sentence contains 'stupid'.
He also doesn't understand accident investigation and why the ATSB have sent an investigator to France.

Well I did learn something from him.
If you crash sub sonic it's not a high speed crash. But if it is super sonic it a high speed crash.
But still nothing why there is no apparent damage at the leading edge.
but he did say he knew more but can't say

It's held on with some heavy hinge points and ram points. Think about the loads that are required. Then look at what damage is there. Not saying anything I think the facts speak for them selfs. Trailing edge damage is what I would expect from hitting rocks on beach !
