They weren't consecutive, they were sent from "the future", so they don't count.

Let's say that there was some sort of time-displacement/teleportation event that acted like a "wormhole" and drew the plane in.

What make us think that this plane would survive the trip?
Could have tyhe same effect as putting a paper boat in a whirlpool with similar results.

What kind of search & rescue effort had been launched?
Was one ever initiated, or was it a lax "Oh well, there goes another plane" response?

What are the chances that the plane was hijacked and all personal electronics confscated and disabled so plane could be taken whole?

Until concrete facts and evidence are presented, all we are left with is our own speculations and theories, and sometimes that's not enough!

i thought about this too.... they steel the whole jet for some evil purpose like filling it with TNT and use it as another 911 type attack
oversea's because they could never get it here.

The tallest building in the world is in Dubai right, so if its on the ground being loaded with explosives as Raven suggests in that area, it could be within full-tanks flight distance to Dubai right?

Getting it off the ground with full fuel and a heavy load of explosives could be a problem, if it was hidden at a small, remote field somewhere. You'd need about 5000' of runway (maybe more if it's a grass field) and a pilot experienced in short field max weight take-offs. Taking off is a bit more complicated than hijacking a plane and turning it around. If was going to be turned into a flying bomb, odds are the original pilot would refuse to take off, even at gunpoint. Unless he was in on whatever plot was hatched, of course.

Getting it off the ground with a small nuke could be scary, and with no load and a lot of fuel that aircraft could likely fly for a while.

I'd wager the military is watching this closely.

we have a plane that has a lazer in the NOSE
it can shoot the beam like ten miles
we might just use it soon

This plane is on the bottom of the ocean

I wouldn't jump to that conclusion yet. Evidence is increasingly pointing towards not only a hijacking, the aircraft the air for 7 hours after they lost contact and maneuvers to avoid detection.
