Q & A
What was the final destination of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?
-The final destination of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 was Beijing, China.
When did the Boeing 777襟副翼 fragment of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 get discovered?
-The fragment was discovered on July 29, 2015, on Réunion Island, which is a French territory in the Indian Ocean.
What was the total number of passengers and crew on board Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?
-There were 227 passengers and 12 crew members on board, including the captain and co-pilot.
What was the primary role of the ACARS system on board Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?
-The ACARS (Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System) was the main communication medium between the aircraft and the airline, allowing for the transmission of flight data such as position, height, speed, and destination.
How did the Malaysian military radar capture the flight path of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 after it disappeared from civilian radar?
-The Malaysian military radar, which is more precise than civilian radar, captured the flight path of Flight 370 even after the aircraft's transponders were turned off. It detected the aircraft making a series of maneuvers and eventually flying south over the Indian Ocean.
What was the significance of the 'satellite handshakes' in the investigation of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?
-The 'satellite handshakes' were signals sent from the aircraft's ACARS system to the Inmarsat satellite. These signals, while not providing specific location data, allowed investigators to calculate the distance the aircraft was from the satellite and helped narrow down the search area in the southern Indian Ocean.
What was the role of the captain of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, Zaharie Ahmad Shah, in the days leading up to the flight?
-Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah was a highly experienced pilot with over 18,000 hours of flight time, including 8,600 hours on Boeing 777 aircraft. He was also a training captain and had been with Malaysia Airlines since 1981.
What was the initial reaction of air traffic control when they lost contact with Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?
-Initially, air traffic control assumed that Flight 370 had entered the airspace of the neighboring Ho Chi Minh flight information region. It took some time before they realized that the aircraft had not made contact with the next air traffic control center and that something was amiss.
What were the three main theories proposed to explain the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?
-The three main theories proposed were pilot suicide (with the captain deliberately crashing the plane), a hijacking by a third party, and a mechanical or electrical failure on board the aircraft leading to an uncontrolled flight until fuel exhaustion.
What was the significance of the debris found on the east coast of Africa in relation to the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?
-The debris found on the east coast of Africa, including a flaperon from the aircraft, provided the first concrete evidence that Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 had crashed into the ocean.
What was the conclusion of the final investigation report released by the Malaysian Ministry of Transport in July 2018?
-The final investigation report concluded that the aircraft was manually altered from its original flight path but did not determine who was responsible for the change. It also did not provide a definitive reason for the disappearance of MH370.

馬來西亞航空370號航班
最完整的故事
2014年3月8日凌晨
馬來西亞 吉隆坡
吉隆坡國際機場 晴空萬里
馬來西亞航空370號航班
一架波音777-200ER
註冊編號9M-MRO
準備由吉隆坡飛往中國北京
飛機機齡接近12年
維修記錄簿記載
飛機狀態良好 沒有任何故障
機上載有227名乘客
其中有153名來自中國
38名來自馬來西亞
以及另外12國包括台灣在內的旅客
負責執飛這趟航班的
有十位空服員與兩名機師
副駕駛Fariq Abdul Hamid(法里克·阿卜杜勒·哈米德)
27歲
總飛行時數2,700小時
年紀輕輕 就在波音737與空巴a330上擔任過副駕駛
事故前四個月
他開始在波音777上訓練
這趟航班 恰好是他訓練期間的最後一趟航班
他預計下一趟航班就準備接受考核了
機長Zaharie Ahmad Shah(扎哈里·艾哈邁德·沙阿)
53歲
總飛行時數高達18,400小時
其中在波音777上8,600小時
他在1981年就加入馬航
以機長身份飛過波音737-400與空巴a330
在1998年拿到了波音777-200的飛行證照
更是在2007年被升為考證教官與考證審核官
他是馬航中 最資深的飛行員之一
副駕駛法里克正是機長一手訓練起來的
正常來說 訓練航班上會有額外的第三名機師
但這趟航班
或許是兩位機師資質都很好
有他們就夠了
乘客們通過登機門的廊道進入飛機
接受空服員熱情的歡迎 進入擁擠的雙走道客機
隨身行李被放在行李架上
對乘客而言
這是再正常不過的一次飛行
或許是趕紅眼航班有點累了
許多乘客一上機 就呼呼地睡去
他們怎麼也想不到 自己已經踏入了
航空史上最大的謎團
登機作業完成
起飛前 機長要求加了49,100公斤的燃油
共可以飛7小時又31分鐘
比預計的5小時34分航程多了接近兩小時
一般來說 每趟航班都會帶備降燃油與緊急燃油
而且北京首都機場是一座繁忙的機場
馬航認為說不定會出現盤旋等待
所以又要求各航班多帶30分鐘的燃油
這樣的燃油量是很正常的
時間來到凌晨00:25
馬航370請求出發許可
接下來播放的是馬航370與塔台、地面、區管的對話錄音
00:27
後推車將這架波音777
從登機門緩緩推出
飛機正以接近30節的地速
滑行到機場的32R跑道
副駕駛負責與地面溝通
機長負責滑行
看似一切正常
00:40
偌大的飛機已經來到跑道頭
塔台給予馬航370起飛許可
波音777開始做起飛滑跑
轉瞬間
飛機已經升空
時間是00:42
比預計出發時間晚了7分鐘
升空後 副駕駛負責飛行事務
機長則負責通訊
這是馬航一貫的組員分工
航管指引他們直飛IGARI航點
這可以節省他們時間
機長扎哈里 將頻率調到吉隆坡區管
凌晨00:43
吉隆坡區管播了一通直連電話到越南胡志明區管中心
說飛機大約會在01:22 飛到IGARI航點
IGARI航點 是一個頗為特殊的航點
它位於馬來西亞與越南兩塊半島的正中間
吉隆坡機場東北方500公里左右
這個位置 正好位在五個飛航情報區的交界處
新加坡飛航情報區、吉隆坡、胡志明、金邊與曼谷飛航情報區
當飛機由一個情報區 被交接給另一個情報區時
飛行員要向對方做「Check in」動作
如果管制員呼叫不到飛機
最慢五分鐘之內 將要把這一消息通報
然而今天 情況卻有所不同...
馬航370繼續照計畫爬升
在01:01
機長向吉隆坡報告
飛機已經來到巡航高度35,000英呎
7分鐘後
機長向吉隆坡重複了一遍他們的高度
通常這是不必要的
但總之
預計抵達IGARI航點的3分鐘前
吉隆坡區管指引他們聯繫胡志明區管
機長的這句晚安
是向航管的道謝與道別
也是馬航370留在這個世上的最後一句話
01:20
波音777飛過了IGARI航點
即將進入胡志明飛航情報區
自動駕駛 開始調整航向
繼續往下一個航點BITOD進發
在這個時候 我們必須簡單介紹一下
波音777聯繫地面的主要方式
總共有五個
我們把焦點擺在應答機系統 與ACARS系統
因為這兩個 與馬航的失蹤有直接關係
-應答機系統
搭配的是地面的二次雷達
可以把它想像成飛機與航管之間的Zenly 或 尋找iPhone
應答機會把航班號、Squawk Code、型號、高度與目的地
還有最重要的位置資訊
傳給航管中心
管制員方能在螢幕上定位
以確保飛機與飛機間保持安全距離
應答機的重要性 可想而知
所以整趟航程下來都不應該被關閉
但關閉應答機 卻很容易
只要輕輕的挑一下應答機面板上的旋鈕 就關掉了
-ACARS系統
ACARS 是航空公司 與飛機通訊的主要媒介
在近海或內陸 飛機會透過VHF 超高頻通訊
聯繫諸如SITA或ARINC公司的地面基地台
這些通訊公司 再把飛機資訊 包括飛機詳細的位置、高度速度、目的地、
幾時出發等
傳給航空公司
在遠洋 飛機會透過衛星通訊系統SATCOM
傳給諸如Inmarsat 或iridium
他們再轉傳給航空公司
而同樣的 航空公司也能把一些飛航資訊
例如天氣、哪裡會有海上風暴等資料傳給飛機
可以把它想像成機上的iMessage
而SITA或Inmarsat 可能就是AT&T 或 遠傳電信的概念
ACARS 也是可以關閉的
但 在關閉前最後一刻 電腦會傳送一個「ACARS已關閉」的訊息
到地面
要怎麼無聲無息的關閉ACARS系統呢?
最直接的方法就是將飛機的電力系統關閉
ACARS直接在電力系統斷路的那一刻關機
「ACARS已關閉」的訊息才不會被傳遞出去
01:20:34
飛機剛飛越IGARI
自動駕駛剛開始轉彎的這一刻
機上的應答機 被人為的關閉了
管制員這個時候應該會注意到一個光點
突然消失在自己的顯示器上
但 飛機剛剛好在通過飛航情報區邊界的時候消失
吉隆坡區管以為 飛機已經飛入進入胡志明情報區
已經不是他的事了
另一頭 胡志明情報區的管制員在等待機長匯報
通常晚個一兩分鐘都屬於正常範圍
然而 兩分鐘變成 五分鐘
五分鐘變成十五分鐘
奇怪的是 馬航一直沒有回報位置
在雷達螢幕上也看不見馬航的資訊
飛機上的ACARS在01:17到02:03之間
被關閉了
就像剛說的 關閉ACARS前會有一個「ACARS已關閉」的訊息
傳送到馬來西亞航空運營中心
但 馬航沒有收到這樣的訊息
這意味著 飛機的電力系統很可能在這個時候
突然切斷了
ACARS在斷路的那一刻關閉
所以我們才無法得知關閉的準確時間點
飛機最後與吉隆坡區管通訊
過去了整整20分鐘
胡志明區管終於坐不住
一通電話打到吉隆坡區管
吉隆坡:「我已經轉交給你了對吧?」
胡志明:「是...是的,但飛機光點沒有出現在我們的雷達螢幕上」
兩邊的雷達螢幕上都沒有馬航
馬航呢?
接下來幾分鐘
胡志明聯繫了香港、金邊
也要求其他在空中的飛機聯繫馬航370
但 都找不到
一架波音777在五個飛航情報區的交界處
消失了
航管 航空公司 衛星 在這個時候都追蹤不了飛機
但 飛機真正的“憑空消失”
否則 它是不可能逃脫監控的
因為還有最後一個方法 就是軍用雷達
飛機軌跡 被馬來西亞的軍用雷達給捕捉到了
軍用雷達 精准度遠高於民用雷達
一般管制員的雷達屬於「二次雷達」
而軍用雷達 則結合了「基礎雷達」
任何被雷達波照射到的物體
包括飛機、敵國的戰鬥機、或大一點的鳥群
都會反射回來
所以馬航就算關掉了應答機
就算關掉了ACARS
也依舊會被偵測到
不過 軍方只能看到單純的一個點
沒有顯示 它究竟是鳥群或飛機
亦或是民航機還是軍機
當然 一般軍用雷達不止於此
它還能準確反射出物體的高度與速度
然而 馬來西亞軍方說
他們的高度與速度數據 剛好有誤
有些高度前一分鐘升高到58,000英呎
後一分鐘突然降低到4,800英呎
這完全違反飛機性能與空氣動力學
就算動力歸零操縱桿下推
空氣阻力不會讓飛機像自由落體一般
飛機也很可能會被撕扯到解體
所以我們只清楚飛機的經緯度僅此而已
軍用雷達捕捉到馬航一開始向右轉
看起來確實是要飛往BITOD
然而 在兩個飛航情報區的交界處
飛機突然向左大角度的轉彎
轉彎角度大到 在駕駛艙
機師應該能聽到「傾角過大」的警告
轉彎慢慢停歇
飛機轉至航向273後停止
接著 01:24到01:37這段期間
軍用雷達偵測到飛機的航向偏轉
從8度到20度不等
速度最快來到529節地速
最慢451節
飛機正在快速的橫越馬來半島
與此同時 胡志明區管甚至第一通確認電話都還沒打
馬來西亞軍方也好像在睡覺似的
沒有任何戰鬥機升空攔截不明目標
也沒有向任何民用區管通報他們的發現
就這樣 飛機在01:52
飛越了馬來半島
來到檳城上空
這時 飛機再次右轉
機身開始傾斜
此時
副駕駛的iPhone 5
一般在機上是收不到信號的
可能因為這個傾斜角度剛好讓手機連線到地面上的基地台
01:52:27
手機在短短的幾秒鐘與地面基地台相連
接著 機身改平 訊號丟失
不過 基地台因此有了紀錄
這是少數幾個 馬航為世人留下來的線索 之一
飛機轉彎後繼續直飛
航線與航道N571相近
大部分客機會沿著空中的各個航道 前往四面八方
N571就是其中一條
所以 這可能是馬來西亞軍方沒有讓戰機升空攔截的原因
馬航370 像一般的民航機一樣不顯眼
飛機繼續往安達曼海方向飛
接下來是孟加拉灣
接下來才是印度
在這空出來的海域 馬來西亞是沒有雷達站的
當飛機飛離馬來半島最外圍的雷達站
它將徹底消失於軍民兩方的雷達系統上
凌晨02:22
失聯後一小時又三分鐘
飛機光點出現在MEKAR航點外10海浬
然後 就沒有然後了
這是軍用雷達最後一次捕捉到馬航370
在這裡
相信各位都充滿疑惑
飛機究竟是為什麼會做出如此奇怪的操作
為什麼應答機要關閉?
之後的Inmarsat的數據又是怎麼來的?
目前主流的三個理論
分別是機長劫機論
起火/電子系統失效論
與第三方劫機論
這是機長扎哈里
在2014年3月7日晚間10點
在吉隆坡國際機場報到並順利通過檢查門的畫面
也是機長 留給世人最後的身影
畫面中的他 看起來沒有任何異樣
這個論點的支持者
包括很多專業的航空從業人員、機師等
像是MH 370獨立調查團的創辦人
航空工程師Richard Godfrey
他也相當暸解飛機的各個電子系統
這個理論 有一部分資料出自於他
機長劫機論認為
在即將到達IGARI之前
機長用什麼理由 讓副駕駛離開了駕駛艙
可能讓他去倒杯咖啡
而趁這個時候 機長將機艙門鎖了起來
並手動的把應答機關閉
證據是 飛機在雷達螢幕上“搞消失”的時候
儘管管制員沒有注意到
但在回放後 有那麼一瞬間
飛機顯示的資訊
是:「高度350」「高度0」
接著 整個光點消失
而導致這結果的原因是
要把應答機旋鈕旋至待命模式 也就是關閉應答機
必須先經過這個「關閉高度」模式
機長可能自己也想不到 或深知無可避免
所以儘快的把轉盤轉到待命模式
接著 機長先把電力系統斷路
這樣一來 ACARS會被直接斷路
讓航空公司的系統不能追蹤到自家的飛機
也不能第一時間知道ACARS被人為關閉
而機長選在通過IGARI
這個五個飛行情報區交界處
管轄權複雜的地方
關閉應答機
故意拖延兩方航管發現飛機失蹤的時間
這些行徑 都很像是計畫好的
當飛機飛越IGARI 開始轉彎的那一刻
機長突然將飛機 大動作的掉頭
是要讓馬航370留在馬來西亞飛航情報區內
讓軍方以為飛機可能遭遇緊急狀況要返航
而且 雷達上的光點總數一樣
軍方可能不會特別去注意到異樣
而如果是飛機自動駕駛出現故障
突然要飛機做返航
那飛機的轉彎傾斜角也已經超出自動駕駛的安全範圍
所以一定是人為操作
而且 到現在
我還沒有聽過自動駕駛出故障的時候
會改變自己的航向的案例
接著 機長把「空氣」當作「武器」
在機艙失壓時
有三種不同的情境
乘客們 會戴上從艙頂降下的氧氣面罩
這能提供15分鐘的氧氣
空服員 會指引乘客戴上氧氣面罩
同時 會利用空服員專用的氧氣瓶呼吸
可以提供44分鐘的氧氣
機長 會戴上駕駛艙的氧氣面罩
供氧系統獨立於客艙
而且能提供好幾個小時的氧氣
所以 更悲慘的推斷是
機長很有可能
將自己的氧氣罩戴上
並把減壓閥給打開
這時 乘客們只能最多呼吸15分鐘
一般來說 這時間已經夠一架777下降到氧氣足夠的高度了
但 機長不打算這麼做
當這些氧氣耗盡
人會慢慢昏厥 最後死亡
副駕駛提著空服員專用的氧氣瓶
要求進入駕駛艙時
機長並沒有理會他
而是把艙門維持上鎖
44分鐘存氧量耗盡
最終 副駕駛也失去了意識
搞定了機內
機長開始設法逃脫雷達與軍機
他選擇了一條巧妙的航線
介於泰國與馬來西亞邊境的航道
反覆來回的進入與離開兩個飛航情報區
這樣泰國與馬來西亞兩方
都不知道該不該對這個「不明目標」做出反應
最後 飛機在檳城做了一次轉彎
有些人認為是機長為了看最後一眼自己從小長大的故鄉
比較有可能的猜測是
他為了躲避印尼飛航情報區
因為他不知道印尼的空軍會不會像馬來西亞的那麼散慢
所以他選擇留在馬來西亞飛航情報區
機長還故意把自己塞入N571航道裡飛行
為的就是魚目混珠 把自己偽裝成一位過客
講到這邊 我也很疑惑
如果這些是真的
機長是出於什麼原因
做出這樣的行為?
機長扎哈里 究竟是一個怎麼樣的人?
扎哈里·艾哈邁德·沙阿
1967年7月31日
出生於馬來西亞 檳城
從小家境不是很寬裕
但他依舊有個飛行夢
1981年
在政府機關資助下 扎哈里以飛行學員加入馬航
此後一直在馬航深耕 在事故發生時他已經接近能退休的年紀
扎哈里已婚 並育有三名子女與一名孫子
他相當熱愛飛行
