3) The Missing Hour
Some people have questioned the accuracy of the official timings reported by the airline. Malaysia Airlines originally said the plane took off at 12.41am Malaysian time, and at 2.40am it disappeared from radar in Subang, Kuala Lumpur. A spokesman then confirmed the last conversation took place at 1.30am between the flight crew and air traffic control in Malaysia, but reiterated the plane did not vanish from air traffic control systems until 2.40am.
After a bit of a public media fit about the timings Malaysian Airlines updated their official records so they now report that the last time of radar was 1.22am and the last contact at 1.30am. So we can conclude that either there was a small error in the initial report, or that they are covering something up. It’s more likely to be the former though.
