"senior military officer who has been breifed on investigations told reuters that the aircraft may have detoured to the west (he's not a spokesman)
a non-military source familiar with the investigations said the reported detour was one of several theories being checked
spokesman for m'sia PM office said in interview wit NY Times that senior military officials told him there was no evidence the plane recrossed the m'sian peninsula, only that it may have tried to turn back"

Malaysia’s air force chief has denied saying military radar tracked a missing Malaysia Airlines jetliner over the Strait of Malacca, adding to the mystery surrounding the fate of flight MH370, which vanished on Saturday with 239 people aboard.
A massive air and sea search now in its fifth day has failed to find any trace of the Boeing 777, and the last 24 hours have seen conflicting statements and reports over what may have happened after it lost contact with air traffic controllers.
Malaysia's Berita Harian newspaper on Tuesday quoted Air Force chief Rodzali Daud as saying the plane was last detected by military radar at the northern end of the Strait of Malacca at 2.40 am on Saturday, hundreds of kilometres off course.
"I wish to state that I did not make any such statements," Rodzali said in a statement on Wednesday.
The air force chief said he had merely repeated that military radar tracking suggested the plane might have turned back.

My and the neighbouring country had better wake up the idea and beef up their early warning survallance defence systems and operating protocol. very nearby china military is growing. so vulnerable like that commercial jet can go in your airspace undetected, what if its military class stealth planes..from cheena?
Seriously, whatever the outcome of MH370, i bet the Msian gahmen noes what is happening and should just come clean rather than make the grieving families worry more...
People all over the world are watching...
Agrees...
How come never use Satellite at first[before China does]?
So did they tried to check the location of the phone ringing?
Discovered something near pulau perak, navy told to bring body bags
NST reported that family members were called in for a late night briefing now.... hmmm
huh
tis kind of thing can just take picture and share on internet?
you can claim the whole of south cheena sea yours, right up to the straits, but one big commercial jet where go also dont know. the satellite system also boleh..very boleh, lol!

A former British Airways pilot believes the missing Malaysia Airline Flight MH370 is "thousands of miles" from where search parties are looking.
Retired Alastair Rosenschein claims the jet and all 239 passengers has plunged into the Indian Ocean half way between Madagascar and Australia.
Mr Rosenschein, who is now an aviation commentator, spoke on BBC Radio 5 Live to put forward his theory about the aircraft's mysterious disappearance.
He claimed the Malaysian jetliner is around 5,000 miles away from where rescuers are looking in the South China Sea on a course set by the pilots before the crew passed out from a drop in cabin pressure.
Read more about his claims here.

A former British Airways pilot believes the missing Malaysia Airline Flight MH370 is "thousands of miles" from where search parties are looking.
Retired Alastair Rosenschein claims the jet and all 239 passengers has plunged into the Indian Ocean half way between Madagascar and Australia.
Mr Rosenschein, who is now an aviation commentator, spoke on BBC Radio 5 Live to put forward his theory about the aircraft's mysterious disappearance.
He claimed the Malaysian jetliner is around 5,000 miles away from where rescuers are looking in the South China Sea on a course set by the pilots before the crew passed out from a drop in cabin pressure.
Asked what his theory was, Mr Rosenschein told the BBC: "Well the one I put forward was that the aircraft may have suffered a depressurisation.
"The initial reaction for pilots in that case would be to put on oxygen masks immediately.
"However, had they failed to do that the next option would be to turn off the airway in order to do a rapid descent.
"Without the oxygen masks they would have they would have passed out within a few seconds.
"That would have left the aircraft on autopilot heading in whichever direction they had turned the aircraft on the autopilot.
"I'm suggesting that they would have made that initial heading a reciprocal one back towards Kuala Lumpur airport.
"That doesn't mean they turned the aircraft directly and exactly toward Kuala Lumpur airport it could quite happily have been a parallel track with the airway.
"With the fuel on board that would put the aircraft finally as it ran out out of fuel, with everybody unconscious on board somewhere around the mid-Indian Ocean which is thousands of miles away from where they're looking at present.
"The worst case scenario for the location of the aircraft would be half-way between Madagascar and Australia, a very very difficult area to search and of course a huge area."
Vietnamese aircraft have failed to find any wreckage from the missing Malaysian Airlines plane after large objects were pictured floating in the South China Sea.
A picture captured by a Chinese satellite appeared to show the silvery outline of plane wreckage in the ocean.
It was taken at 11am on Sunday - the day after the Boeing 777 disappeared - and released by Beijing officials yesterday, who flew aboard a Antonov 26 cargo plane for three hours.
Vietnamese Aircraft repeatedly circled the area shown by the image - but were unable to detect anything, said a journalist on board one of the planes.
Speaking about the search for debris in Vietnamese waters, Mr Rosenschein said: "Had the aircraft broken up, it would have presumably done so at the point of last contact.
"That area of sea has been searched and no debris was found.
"That is why I go on the theory that the pilots would have commanded the autopilot for a parallel reverse track.
"And that is why I still think there is some credence to this particular scenario."
The missing Malaysia Airline flight MH370 could have flown for an extra FOUR hours after it lost contact with air traffic controllers, according to reports.
It is based on data automatically downloaded and sent to the ground from the aircraft's Rolls Royce engines as part of a standard monitoring programme.
The possibility means the plane could have travelled for another 2,200 miles to Pakistan or Mongolia, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Some enlightened Buddhist people can find it?
Fortunately it was not a Chinese or Indian plane, otherwise it would have been an accusation of cheating,lying and being stupid.
Singapore has submarines?Never knew that before.
we have a lot of things you dont know
wo U.S. officials tell ABC News the U.S. believes that the shutdown of two communication systems happened separately on Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. One source said this indicates the plane did not come out of the sky because of a catastrophic failure.
The data reporting system, they believe, was shut down at 1:07 a.m. The transponder -- which transmits location and altitude -- shut down at 1:21 a.m.
This indicates it may well have been a deliberate act, ABC News aviation consultant John Nance said.
U.S. investigators told ABC News that the two modes of communication were "systematically shut down."
That means the U.S. team "is convinced that there was manual intervention," a source said, which means it was likely not an accident or catastrophic malfunction that took the plane out of the sky.
U.S. officials said earlier that they have an "indication" the missing Malaysia Airlines jetliner may have crashed in the Indian Ocean and is moving the USS Kidd to the area to begin searching.
It's not clear what the indication was, but senior administration officials told ABC News the missing Malaysian flight continued to "ping" a satellite on an hourly basis after it lost contact with radar. The Boeing 777 jetliners are equipped with what is called the Airplane Health Management system in which they ping a satellite every hour. The number of pings would indicate how long the plane stayed aloft.
It's not clear, however, whether the satellite pings also indicate the plane's location.
The new information has greatly expanded the potential search area into the Indian Ocean.
"We have an indication the plane went down in the Indian Ocean," the senior Pentagon official said.
The official initially said there were indications that the plane flew four or five hours after disappearing from radar and that they believe it went into the water. Officials later said the plane likely did not fly four or five hours, but did not specify how long it may have been airborne.
White House spokesman Jay Carney said, “It's my understanding that based on some new information that's not necessarily conclusive, but new information, an additional search area may be opened in the Indian Ocean, and we are consulting with international partners about the appropriate assets to deploy.”
Carney did not specify the nature of the “new information.”
Pentagon officials said that the destroyer USS Kidd was being moved to the western part of the strait of Malacca at the request of Malaysia and is heading towards an area where the Indian Ocean and the Andaman Sea meet. The ship has helicopters aboard that can scour the area.
The U.S. action came hours after Malaysian officials said they had extended their search into the Andaman Sea and had requested help from India in the search for the missing plane and its 239 passengers.
Investigators also said today that U.S. officials gave them reasons to keep searching the waters west of Malaysia, far from the flight path of the Malaysia Airlines plane.
Malaysian Defense Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said that the search’s “main focus has always been in the South China Sea,” which is east of Malaysia and along the plane’s route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
But the search was extended earlier this week to include water far to the west on the other side of Malaysia.
“We are working very closely with the FAA and the NTSB on the issue of a possible air turn back,” Hishammuddin said, referring to the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and National Transportation Safety Board.
“They have indicated to us that based on the information given by the Malaysian authorities, they — being the FAA and NTSB — the U.S. team was of the view that there was reasonable ground for the Malaysian authorities to deploy resources to conduct search on the western side of the peninsula of Malaysia. Under the circumstances, it is appropriate to conduct the search even if the evidence suggests there is a possibility of finding a minor evidence to suggest that ... the aircraft would have been there.”
Hishammuddin said it was possible the plane kept flying after dropping off of radar. "Of course, this is why we have extended the search," he said.
The Malaysians spent much of today's news conference dismissing earlier leads.
How many days has it been??
now relli wanna search indian ocean......
high chance it is at indian ocean.....think the theory that all the ppl passed out due to lack of oxygen is very high chance..
tts so far the most believable deduction
i think few more days later we will see some debris reaching the shores of maybe sri lanka or indonesia or even australia (depending on where the current flow)...
maybe our east coast park also
So it is likely they have been searching the wrong place for the past 1 week.
why US mai zah gong.........
