The premise of the plane being southbound at 18:39 won't work unless it overflew Indonesian territory, which I consider extremely unlikely.

They didn't say that - read it again - what they said was that they didn't track such a target over their territory.

Thanks for the link.

The map also shows speeds in the low 300kt range.
Isn't maximum range speed higher than this for a 772?
Why would it be flying so slow?
