MH370 Final Report 'We're not saying it was the pilot, but it was the pilot...'

Report stops short of assigning blame.

A final report on the disappearance of flight MH370 has been issued, and it stops just short of assigning blame to the pilot. The report concludes that the plane was deliberately 'manipulated' off course.

LOS ANGELES, CA (California Network) - The Malaysian government has issued a 449-page final report on the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370. It states the plane was likely 'manipulated' off course. This means the disappearance was the result of deliberate human action. Whether this was the product of a sinister motive or not remains a mystery. When combined with other evidence, the circumstances appear suspicious. Officially, no blame has been assigned to either of the pilots in the cockpit, or to any other person. 

The report concluded that errors on the ground, including a delayed search and rescue effort, likely contributed to the loss. There is no evidence of any defect or malfunction on board the plane at any time. 

Flight MH370 disappeared overnight on March 8, 2014 with 239 souls on board. The plane was headed to Bejing from Kuala Lumpur. 

Just a half hour after takeoff, ground control handed the plane off to controllers in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The plane's captain, Zaharie Ahmad Shah, was instructed to contact the Vietnamese controllers. That call was never made. The final transmission from Shah was, "Good night, Malaysian three seven zero."
