Seems if they're searching the correct area they'd found a trace of it by now.
Almost beginning to look as if it was more of a coordinated attempt to fly it elsewhere before destroying it. Whether it exploded at 35,000 ft. or hit the water and disintegrated, seems like floating debris would be present by now.

I was thinking the same thing about debris. I know that satellite imagery cannot see things underwater, but it seems to be that there would be a lot off floating debis in the form of luggage, clothes, papers...whatever floats, especially seat cushions. Where is it? Why has it not been spotted? The ocean is a big place, but with satellites, shipping traffic, and aerial searches, it has got to be found.
