Bob Woodruff of NBC contacted his Japanese employer who conformed that the New Zealand citizen rig worker did work for them and that they were the ones that forwarded his email to the proper authorities in Malaysia. The oil rig operated stated that the aircraft fire lasted approx 10-15 seconds.

If you can see a aircraft flying at Fl 350 contrails during the day time why could this guy not see a aircraft on fire at night.

I have also read that an anther airline in the area was asked by ATC to try and contact Flt 370...that airliner told ATC they only hear a "buzzing noise"....could this be part of an electrical problem on Flt 370?

OK, back to your originally scheduled program.
