 * A “Startlingly Simple Theory” About the Missing Airliner is Sweeping the Internet. It’s Wrong. Jeff Wise doesn't like the Goodfellow theory: "Take other major findings of the investigation into account, and Goodfellow’s theory falls apart. For one thing, while it’s true that MH370 did turn toward Langkawi and wound up overflying it, whoever was at the controls continued to maneuver after that point as well, turning sharply right at VAMPI waypoint, then left again at GIVAL. Such vigorous navigating would have been impossible for unconscious men." Does Goodfellow's theory require that the pilots be unconscious at that point?
