We are counting down our favorite episodes of the year. On March 8, 2014, Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 took off in the early hours of the morning as the red eye flight from Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, with an intended destination of Beijing, China. There were 227 passengers on board, with 12 crew members. The pilot in command, 53 year old Captain Zaharie Shah, was performing a final instructional flight for 27 year old co-pilot, first officer Fariq Hamid. It was a clear, calm night, and the flight was initially uneventful. At cruising altitude of 35,000 feet, the flight was leaving Malaysian Air Space and was instructed to transfer to the air traffic control tower in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam. At 0119, Captain Shah radioed the Air Traffic Controllers in Malaysia “Good night, Malaysian 370”. That was the last verbal contact with anyone on the plane. Approximately 103 seconds later, the aircraft went dark and vanished from all radar screens in Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, and Ho Chi Minh City. There were two transponders onboard the plane, so to disappear, both transponders would need to cease functioning – either by catastrophic failure or by manual override by someone on the plane. It was over 20 minutes before anyone noted the plane was missing. It did not arrive for it’s 6:30 ETA, and only had enough fuel to fly until ~ 8:15 AM. The most expensive search and rescue operation in aviation history was initiated. To this day, we do not know where the airplane is, or what happened to the 239 souls on board. An extensive safety report was released which did not answer many questions and had inconclusive findings. They denied suspecting any crew was involved, and reported that air traffic control was delayed in noting the missing plane. Theories vary, from a hijacking or suicide mission, to a military operation, and a plethora of questions still exist. One thing is for sure, evidence of shoddy investigative work and potential cover-ups abound. What really happened to MH370 in the early morning hours of March 8 , 2014?

RE-RELEASE: Plum Island
**Discussion begins at 8:30**
Plum Island is a 3 mile by 1 mile island isolated off the coast of New York. It is home to a lab run by the Department of Homeland Security and Department of Agriculture. The lab claims to be dedicated to the study of disease in animal livestock. They claim that in compliance with Nixon’s 1969 order, there is no offensive bioweapons research taking place there. Instead, they argue, the goal is to focus on protecting the US against the introduction of animal diseases. Their principal focus, they allege, is to prevent foot and mouth disease, which has not occurred in the US since 1929. The island can only be accessed by military ferry which is escorted by armed guards, and personnel are not permitted to have pets or spend time around animals due to the inherent risk of disease spread. While the government maintains that there is no bioweapons research happening there, evidence exists that discredits their claims. In fact, one of the primary goals of the lab when it was first developed by Nazi scientist Erich Traub, was to research the use of ticks as bioweapons. Since that time, people have argued that the lab is responsible for the development and spread of tickborne illnesses, including Lyme Disease and the African Swine Flu Outbreak in Cuba. Is the government performing innocent studies to limit the spread of animal transmitted infections? Or are they performing harmful biologic research under the guise of benign animal studies?
