I only heard about this a couple of hours ago and didn't take too long to find enough information about it to dismiss it as anything suspicious. I started a thread over on Metabunk, which I will also share below.
A rather pointless conspiracy theory seems to be making its way through the bowels of the internet which claims that a 'clone' for MH370 is being held by Israel for some unspecified purpose.. but because it's Israel is must be nefarious..:rolleyes:
The video here as well as several of the usual woo forums states that a Boeing 777-2H6(ER), previously registered 9M-MRI, was sold to GA Telesis (who lease as well as dismantle aircraft for parts). It is interesting to note that the same company mid last year disassembled an ex-Malaysian Airlines B-777-200, registration 9M-MRK. In the same article they mention that they also have "another 777-200ER aircraft scheduled for disassembly in August." Anyway, the video implies something suspicious is going on because 9M-MRI is the exact same make and model and airline as MH-370 and therefore the fact it is now in storage in Israel is setting off alarm bells in the minds of the paranoid and delusional.
As it turns out, Malaysian Airlines entire B-777 fleet is up for sale after a decision was made to start a replacement program.
However this particular B-777 was never "owned" my Malaysian Airlines. According to this page they were leasing it from ALAFCO; a Kuwait based leasing company.
This alleged "clone" of MH370 (9M-MRI) was withdrawn from service in April last year, sold to GA Telesis in October, who re-registered it to N105GT. It has been put into storage for apparent disassembling as mentioned in their July 2013 press release. The page here states that it's last flight took it to Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv in November after being stored for a short period of time in France. I would assume after purchasing from ALAFCO, the aircraft is stored there until GA Telesis are ready for it to be flown to the US for disassembly.
It is also worthy to note that GA Telesis have at least 3 other aircraft stored(Down bottom of page under Fleet List heading, click the Whole Fleet tab) so it's certainly not uncommon for them to mothball their aircraft.
So in effect I have been looking for anything in amongst this that looks 'suspicious' and there is none. It doesn't take an IQ of more than room temperature to guess what pre-exiting prejudice spawned this theory.. Short of calling up GA Telesis and asking them what they're doing with N105GT, I think it's safe to assume it's on death row.
Any other takers on this?
:cool:
