KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak confirmed on early on Thursday that a Boeing 777 wing segment discovered in the Indian Ocean island of Reunion is from the missing Flight MH370, the first real breakthrough in the search for the plane that disappeared 17 months ago.

"The international team of experts have conclusively confirmed that the aircraft debris found on Reunion Island is indeed from MH370," Najib said in a televised statement.

Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 disappeared in March last year enroute from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 passengers and crew on board.

And just how many conspiracy nuts feel a bit stupid?

I recall back then I said what happened, and that they would find the plane off of Reunion Island.

This time, at least, people who know me recall me saying just exactly that.

Because the wreckage was found off of Reunion Island like I said, it means that what happened to that plane is almost certainly what I said then.

It was not terrorism.

They had a fire.

When you're a pilot, you don't know what kind of fire, and you have to get it out FAST. If it's a fuel fire, you could blow up any second. BOOM.

The first thing you do in any emergency is turn immediately towards the closest airport that has a runway long enough for you to land. Experienced pilots always know where that is. And this pilot did that. This put the airplane on a certain heading towards that airport.

Then, you have GOT to get that fire out - so you climb for the heavens - less oxygen, smother it.

But it could also be an electrical fire. And that means that the co-pilot pulls the circuit breakers to cut off the electricity.

The airplane ballooned up in altitude, then came down sharply. Radar showed that. The second part was the pilot diving to blow out the fire, because the smoke was still pouring in. And he still didn't know it was an electrical fire.

It was an electrical fire, and pulling the circuit breakers did cause the fire to go out, eventually.

Unfortunately, the toxic coatings on the wires and other things burning did not stop burning until everybody, including the pilots, was overcome by fumes.

And why didn't they go on oxygen? Because if you have a fire, oxygen greatly accelerates the fire. BOOM.

So they fought to save the plane, and they did. But were overcome before they could save themselves.

And so now there was a jetliner, aimed at an airport, at full power. It flew on that bearing right over the airport. The pilot was good, his trim was effective.

At full power, the plane flew fast straight ahead, but as it got lighter, it climbed in altitude.

With power off, there was no radio or transponder, and the electrical fire itself probably destroyed much that otherwise would work on an emergency power source.

And so the jetliner flew on into the night, a Mary Celeste, with the trim set just so. It did not fly in a straight line, as its controls were jammed in a mechanical position.

It flew on and on and on, rising and falling with atmospheric pressure, under full power with lightening tanks. It moved laterally with air currents. It tracked generally South and East, until it ran out of fuel and crashed into the ocean.

The bearing of that plane was towards the nearest airport, and beyond that airport there was nothing until Reunion island.

Which is where I said they would find the wreckage.

And they have.

That's how it got there, and that's why there was no radio call, and also why the plane wasn't anywhere near any of those other places.

It's why the plane climbed and dove.

It's why it turned towards that airport and then flew over it.

That's what happened.

A pilot wrote the same thing for a CNN article or some such. We had a rash of electrical fires because a lot of these planes have been re-wired for in flight entertainment systems and that causes a lot of draw on these wires.

If I recall my youth, the old headsets from airplanes uses stethoscope like ear plugs for inflight music and movie. And the movie was a projection on the screen not a LCD player in each seat which also plays video games, etc.

I remember that article. I agreed with it. I remember tracing out on a map the path that the airliner would take, based on the bearing to that nearest airport, and seeing that it was going to plunk down by La Reunion. And I said so.

Since they're finding that wreckage, it means that that other pilot and I were right in our assessment. Nothing else could put that plane out there.
