1. Something isn't right here...
Miron ,   USA   (03.09.14)
All civilian airplanes in the world produced by major manufacturers, including Boeing and Airbus, are equipped with special buoy carrying space satellite transceiver working with COSPAS - SARSAT space installation. These buoy, installed on each plane in pairs, deploy without pilot or any human participation and produce distress signal received world wide for at least 48 hours. Some equipped with batteries capable of supporting buoy for weeks on end. There is no turbulence or even terror bomb, realistically, capable of destroying both buoy because those made to withstand tremendous physical beating. Only military possesses grade of explosives that have the capability to destroy this equipment. And than, they would have to monitor the site where plane was shot down to inspect waters for buoy deployment to finish those off, to make sure signal does not come through.
2. As far as passports go...
Miron ,   USA   (03.09.14)
it sounds like a complete farce. I am personally having expired passport. To make it work I have to pay, depending on the kind of service from somewhere around 100 US Dollars to a few hundreds. I don't travel, so, this is sort of no trouble for me. But I know at least a few people who travel a lot and would swap with someone for a trip without much ado about nothing. The fact that spetz - services managed to inject this, completely irrelevant, information into report, while report lacks basic grip on how civilian planes equipped to deal with emergency at sea is manifest of how much media is both, unfriendly to un - informed average person and censored by those same spetz - services. They would rather keep people in the dark and feed them terror stories than give fair information and send out journalist to seek answers to fairly obvious question. Which in my mind sounds very simple, whose military took down civilian plane.
3. it was a test

4. DOES ANYONE ELSE SMELL A MAJOR COVERUP IN THIS DISASTER?

one of the possibilities totally unmentioned is that this flight may very well have been blow up by some anti-aircraft missile. since this possibility has so far remained unmentioned it appears that some type of huge coverup is being made here.
