The guy who put this theory forward has 20 years experience as a Canadian Class-1 instrumented-rated pilot for multi-engine planes. When you say you're a pilot, do you have similar qualifications?

I've been a pilot for 26 years and yes I am instrument rated but the pilot that wrote this opinion is probably far more experienced than me and rated for more complex aircraft - doesn't matter - I think he is starting with a hypothesis and trying to piece facts into it.
There are a lot of facts that I am looking at that make his theory look like swiss cheese, especially if we are talking Occam's razor - we have a pilot who seems to be a very political character - seeing his political party opposition leader sentenced to 5 years for a trumped up sodomy charge...and the pilot was IN COURT when the verdict is handed down???
So whats more likely the easiest explanation...Captain waits for the co-pilot to go to the bathroom...locks the cockpit door...steals off with aircraft to parts unknown? Or some cockpit fire and no radio call hokus pokus theory...I guess time will tell.
Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah, a father-of-three, was said to be a 'fanatical' supporter of the country's opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim - jailed for homosexuality just hours before the jet disappeared.
