One Fiction Scenario for MH 370 Air Piracy Op

If something like the following scenario didn't happen, it could happen. Unless something as strange as the disappearance of MH370 had happened the idea wouldn't have occurred to me...

It had been getting harder to make a dishonest living in the Strait of Malacca pirating ships. The pirate looked up to the sky one day contemplating new vistas for profit taking. In the deep blue sky a large passenger jet slipped silently. In the pirate's mind a plan to form.

The pirate recruited a corrupt former airline pilot and discovered a conduit into Malaysian Air passenger information. With a competent make up artist to transform the pilot's face to that of a legitimate passenger with a real passport it was only necessary to take a ceramic gun aboard to commandeer the aircraft. Failing a 3D gun printing acquisition back up methods of poison gas or curare-tipped darts might work to incapacitate the aircraft crew. A little compressed air device carefully camouflaged with a few darts wouldn't attract notice from airport security screeners.

The disguise pilot boarded the aircraft while the actual individual who's identity had been taken retired to a remote spot to await life insurance payment sharing. Some time after MH 370 was in flight the pirate pilot contrived an opportunity to enter the cockpit and take out the crew, disable communications, transponder, change course and drop to low altitude.

In a few hours MH 370 reached a remote airport or highway surface for refueling. If sold for parts including the pirate considered the passenger swag besides. His thought took a darker turn yet he had evolved beyond good and evil to personal egoist pragmatism. First-worlders would pay a fortune for transplanted organs in India. The value of 200 hearts, 400 lungs etc. wasn't lost on the pilot. He made an arrangement with a pair of corrupt medical cutters for an ad hoc chop shop in India.

He had three options for the Boeing 777. One, repaint and sell the plane to an obscure fleet. Two, cut it up at a specialty firm in a few hours and sell it for parts. Three, move it to a staging area controlled by Sheik Kali Martinet for readiness as an explosive package delivery platform.
