Tonawanda man believes he has link to Malaysia mystery | Buffalo News, Buffalo Weather | WIVB-TV News 4 Buffalo, NY | WIVB.com

This is one I just had to share as it is from my home town area (I grew up in the Town of Tonawanda just north of Buffalo),,,

It’s been almost two months since Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared. Since then, crews have been searching tirelessly for any sign of the plane. A Tonawanda man is lending a helping hand.

Michael Hoebel has been using a crowd-sourcing website, looking at satellite images available to the public, trying to find the missing airliner.

He says he found one image that raised questions. It was taken days after the crash and he believes it clearly shows the plane in the water, fully intact.

“You can see the break right here,” Hoebel said. “Just in front of the wing is this first breach here. Another thing here is, the lighter skin where the wing attaches to the fuselage. You see that lighter skin. Now look at the image of the 777-200 series. That raised area, that’s what you see coming back [to the original picture].”

Yesterday and Today

Hannity and his guest Angela McGlowan are convinced Iranians have done something to cause flight 370 to disappear:  Fox Contributor Angela McGlowan Tries To Link Missing Malaysian Airliner To Obama Foreign Policy. That was yesterday.

This is today Iranian asylum-seekers used stolen passports on Malaysia Airlines flight:
Interpol said Tuesday that the two passengers who used stolen passports to board a Malaysia Airlines flight that disappeared early Saturday morning were Iranians seeking asylum in Europe.

Interpol secretary general Ronald K. Noble identified the men as Pouri Nourmohammadi, 19, and Delavar Seyedmohammaderza, 29. Noble said that the two men had traveled to Malaysia from Tehran using Iranian passports, but had secured stolen Italian and Austrian passports in Kuala Lumpur for their planned journey to Beijing and Amsterdam, for which both had tickets and planned to travel together.

Malaysian authorities said that Nourmohammadi planned to proceed from Amsterdam to Frankfurt, Germany, where his mother lives. The woman contacted authorities when her son failed to arrive as planned. The BBC reported that Seyedmohammaderza's intended final destination was Copenhagen, Denmark.

The disclosure by Interpol confirmed a report aired late Monday by the BBC's Persian service, which cited a friend of both men who hosted them at his home in Kuala Lumpur as they prepared to travel to Beijing, the final destination of the missing plane.

Sources told Fox News it is not uncommon for Iranians to travel to and from Malaysia, or to buy one-way tickets through third parties. They said the fact that the man believed to have purchased the tickets on behalf of two Iranians traveling with stolen passports seemed to be seeking the cheapest fares within a range of dates does not jibe with typical terrorism plots. The sources familiar with Iranian travel patterns also said use of stolen passports is common for those involved in the drug trade, those wanting to study or work abroad and even Iranians who seek political, religious or social refuge.
