The boeing 777 commune cation with the communication was severed. Abc news learned there were several turns that took the jet toward the indian ocean leading to the conclusion a rogue pilot or hijacker was controlling the plane.

After disappearing from radar, sources say the jet was pinging a satellite every hour for four hours to a data Health System which means the plane could have flown 2400 additional miles in any direction.

We realize this is an excruciating time for the families of those on board. No words can describe the pain that must be going through. Our thoughts and our prayers are with them. I have been afraid of the on going search operation around the clock. At the beginning of the operation, i ordered the search area to be broadened. I instructed the authority to share all relevant information with a wider Investigation Team. And i requested that our friends and our allies join the operation. As of today 14 countries and 43 ships and 58 aircrafts are i wish to thank all of the government for the help at such a crucial time. Since day one the malaysian authorities have worked hand in happened with our International Search including neighbors countries, the aviation authorities and a Multi National search course. Many have been on the ground since sunday. We have shared information in realtime with authorities who have the necessary experience to assist the investigation and we have put our National Security second to the missing it is widely understood that this has been a situation without precedence. We have conduct i had Search Operations over the land in the South China Sea and at every stage we acted on the basis of verified information, and we followed every credible lead. Sometimes the lead have lead to no where. There has been spec lags speculation. We understand the need for information. On behalf of the families and those watching around the world, we have a responsibility to the investigation and the families to only release information that has been corroborated. Our primary motivation has been to find the plane. In the first phase of the search of the operation we searched near the last sea. At the same time it was brought to our attention that based on the primary radar and aircraft the identity of which it was sitting on the aircraft and took it north of the straits of mallaca. Given this Credible Data which was subsequently corroborated with the international authorities, we expanded the area of search to include the straits of manaka you. Earlier this morning i was briefed by the investigation which includes the f. A. A. , the ntsb. The acting minister of transport on new information that shared further light on what happened to mh372. Say with a high degree of certainty that the Aircraft Communications addressing and reporting systems was disabled before the aircraft reached h the east coast of the peninsula. Shortly afterwards near the border between malaysia and vietnamese, air traffic control, the aircraft from this point onward the primary data showed that an aircraft which was believed, but not confirmed to be mh3700 did indeed turn back. It then flew in a westerly direction before turning northwest. Up until the point at which it left radar coverage, these movement are consistent with deliberate actions by someone on the plane. Today based on raw satellite data which was obtained from the Satellite Data Service provider we can show the primary radar data lost flight. After much forensic work, the f. A. A. , ntsb, aaib and malaysian authorities working on the same data conquer. Last confirmed communication between the plane and the satellite was at 8 11 malaysian time. Making further calculations which will indicate how far the aircraft may have flown after the last point of contact. This will help us to refine the search lieu to the type of satellite data we are unable to find the precise location of the plane when it last made contact with the satellite. However, based on the data, the authorities of malaysia and the International Counterparts have determined the planes last communication with the satellite was in one of two possible corridors. The northern corridor stretching pr the border of cad swrik stan stan kaz kazakstan and turk stan. The southern corridor crossing from indonesia to southern indian ocean. The Investigation Team is working to further refine the information. In view of this latest development the malaysian authorities have refocused their investigation into the crew and passengers on board. Despite media reports that the plane was highjacked, i wish to be very clear. We are still investigating all possibilities what may have caused mp3700 to deviate from the original flight path.
