My thoughts... Really sticking my neck out here...the debris spotted in the Southern Indian Ocean is not from the missing plane. They are however looking in the right area; and the likelihood of finding the plane is somewhat easier as the ocean topography is less mountainous than that encountered in the search for the Air-France flight some years earlier. The delay in changing the search area is against them ; but with wind and current analysis, they should find a starting point. But having said that, they may never find the wreckage. Cause ... The Captain has taken control of the plane, and somehow disabled or prevented the co-pilot from re-entering the cockpit. He had issues that caused him to take this action. He made deliberate and planned maneuvers to avoid detection. He then crashed the plane at high speed vertically to minimize the debri field. That is pure speculation on my part I admit, but I have read some accounts from experienced heavy - commercial pilots... and they are absolutely wrong. Surprisingly so. My only credibility is a continuing interest in aviation, and I follow many accident investigations as a personal interest. I also had some 25 years flying experience on single engine aircraft across Australia, with some time on jet aircraft ( Boeing 737 - 800 Series.) . It has become one of the most baffling mysteries of all time, and we may never now how and why... R.I.P. to all who perished... and my thoughts to all their families .
