    About this ebook

    MH370 heavy is fiction--the story line and eventual plot may or may not be close to actuality. We may never know. We can,...as the author has done here, approximate the investigative process that brings us to a conclusion. At this point the story presented is surmise, conjure and hope for gold ring. Something that is being done by hundreds of people all over the world at this moment. However, the process in which the author details the search process and what the possible methods are to actually finding the aircraft is interesting to read.
    This story and the search has gone on for a quite lengthy time and the theories and novels abound to further tweak the minds of the public. this one is probably the closest to reality from the reviews and feedback received

      Prologue

      The Kuala Lumpur Hyatt was a classy hotel and normally quiet but the din of band saws and hammers at this hour of the evening was uncalled for in Ahmad’s opinion. The noise awoke him but really made no difference. He was due at the flight line in three hours. The pilot of MH370 needed to check weather, flight routing and country custom changes, if any prior to their flight to Beijing. China was not as hard lined communist these days as they were under Mao. They had learned to understand the power of the almighty dollar, Euro or whatever tourists were carrying with them on the incoming aircraft. The Chinese government even made it easier for aircrew and pilots after arrival in mainland China. The government provided the crew with a special guest facilitator as they were titled. The person assigned to the crew would take care of all rooms reserved in the crews name as long as they were in the country. A shallow guise for the real purpose of keeping track of the liberal free thinking tourists and perhaps a capitalistic spy that was among the visitors. Ahmad and his copilot Abdul were less watched but were provided the same courtesy. Usually a young Chinese politico that listened for a word of disrespect from the pilots about the government or its politicians. That he could enter in his report to the Chairman’s committee. That was in China. Here in Malaysia he was responsible for checking out of the hotel and catching the company van to the airport himself. Ahmad finished his shower, dressed and checked his room for anything he may have left behind. He left his room and as he started down the hall to the elevator, he felt lonesome. In China , his facilitator would rise from a chair and fall in step with him to the elevator not saying a word in doing so not even a good evening Mr. Bejar, or Captain. Ahmad checked out of the hotel and entered the company van directly in front of the Hyatt and was ready for another day’s work. Well, another night’s work. It was just nine PM. His flight would depart at midnight.

      In a different hotel in the same city, the activity was quite different. Abdul Reyes would be the copilot with Ahmad Bejar on MH370. His hours prior to boarding were definitely different. Abdul had had several guests in his room the previous afternoon and up to the time he departed for the airport, he was nonstop talking. He really wasn’t in any condition to fly but he would cover that fact quite well and usually, on along overwater flight like this was going to be, his friend Ahmad would look the other way when Abdul wanted to catch a few z;s after the aircraft went on autopilot. He was counting on this.

      The ticket agent looked at the e-ticket and started processing Awhar Gijk’s ticket. She looked up at the dark bearded youth and continued as she asked…

      "Any luggage Mr. Gijk?

      Only my carry-on knapsack this trip. her customer replied in excellent English

      You are ready to board Mr. Gijk as soon as you clear inspection and customs. You seat is as you reserved, 12D an aisle. Have a nice evening

      The security inspection required only a few moments. He passed the body scan and put his sandals back on and turned to retrieve his knapsack. At this moment he was struck with a flash of panic. Bob Jackson, the TSA inspector was looking at the books he had in his knapsack. He had one open and was flipping the pages. The inspector looked up and as he saw Awhar approach. As he replaced the book inside the knapsack he commented.

      Pretty heavy reading. You read these every time you go on vacation?
