Aviation expert says MH370 may have been hijacked by Russians

An aviation expert has blamed Russian hijackers for the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 post reinterpreting existing data.Jeff Wise said that he believed that someone with "sophisticated" knowledge may have had tampered with flight data. His suspicion fell on Russia because of its advanced knowledge in the aviation industry which could have given them the "know-how" to alter flight data, reported The Daily Express.Wise pointed out that there were three Russians onboard MH370, with one of them just a few feet away from the aircraft's electronics-and-equipment bay area which they may have needed to tamper with flight data.He added that an operation of such nature would require "an almost inconceivably sophisticated hijack operation, one so complicated and technically demanding that it would almost certainly need state-level backing." Wise said that although his conspiracy theory pinned the blame on Russians but he cannot think of what motive they would have had except, to confuse authorities.According to Wise's analysis, the plane may have landed in Kazakhstan "just as search officials recognised early on." The Boeing 777 aircraft vanished without a trace along with 239 people onboard during a flight between Kuala Lumpur and Beijing on March 8, 2014.
