The Smoking Gun?

For those following the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 and had already suspected pilot Zaharie Ahmad Shah of hijacking the plane, killing his passengers and himself – the discovery of data on his home flight simulator was the smoking gun.Out of some 600 saved routes on his PC, one resembled the flight that allegedly ended in the South Indian Ocean on March 8, 2014. Except the routes between the satellite-data-backed projected flight path and Zaharie's simulated course didn't match up in many important ways. Was it a training run for mass murder-suicide, or just an eerie coincidence made by a man who didn't fit the psychological profile of a criminal with that kind of a murderous capacity?As usual, it depends how you see the mystery. In Episode 23, Jeff Wise and Andy Tarnoff break it down and recreate the evidence to explore the key similarities and differences between flight and flight simulator.Even more details at our show page, here: https://www.deepdivemh370.com/23-the-flight-simulatorEpisode 23 is sponsored by OnMilwaukee.com, an award-winning independent local media company based in Milwaukee, Wis.
