Interesting to see the graphic representation of the "corridors" in your link, though. I read "from northern Thailand to the border of Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan" and imagined a route south of what's illustrated there. The route on that map goes straight over western China, and it's hard to see how the Chinese wouldn't have detected that... unless they did, and aren't talking about it?

The illustrated northern arc also seems incompatible with the earlier statements that the jet was headed toward the Andaman Islands... but at this point none of it really seems to fit. I hope whoever's running the search knows more than what's being released.

The southern arc seems to go absolutely nowhere but open ocean, between Diego Garcia and Western Australia.

Either this is all incredibly weird, or the information released to the public is incredibly deficient... maybe both.
