M370 Pilot Behavior Raises Red Flag
Today MSN.com reveals that….
“Malaysia acknowledged for the first time that one of the pilots of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 had plotted a course on his home flight simulator to the southern Indian Ocean, where the missing jet is believed to have crashed.”
That should certainly raise eyebrows, don’t you think?
Well, back on March 19, 2014, I blogged about Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah because his face show personality propensities –personality traits–that gave me some concern. The co-pilot did not.
When I looked at photos of the pilot, his face showed he likely had a deviant side to his personality which would cause me not to trust him: Read my thoughts here.
Why would this information be important? Because it can speed up investigations dramatically when we can identify how people are likely to be behave, and can hone into questions based on this information. It doesn’t mean anyone did anything, but we have information that we need to rule in or out much faster. And getting to the heart of this information can move you to the truth much quicker.
Take for example a person who is very arrogant in a photograph. If you can’t see it, you start out with zero information about the person.
If you do see it, you have information upon which to dig for facts. It doesn’t mean the person has done anything, but it increases the likelihood there is a propensity for issues. Arrogant people, as an example, put themselves above all other people, right? They are “self-important” — that’s what arrogant is. That means they have a higher propensity to cause harm to another person (use a person, etc) — compared to a person who shows humility.
It’s simple logic.
In this case, I would have put investigators on the pilot immediately to seek out any evidence of past deviant behavior. Is there any evidence to suggest it? I would also dig into why he also showed contempt in several photos. Contempt is a moral superiority, or a looked down upon someone. Both of these raise red flags that need to be immediately understood, and many, many times, we do find supportive facts that there is reason for concern.
This speeds up investigations dramatically.
Scientists have been studying personality identification at zero acquaintance and are finding people can accurately see personality traits in photographs of people (Don’t believe it–read here). And with all things, some people are better at it than others. I do caution people to not use this tool unless you understand human behavior at a deep, deep level. But I do believe we should harness experts who are good at this. They have the power to really help in cases like this much faster than a person who doesn’t have this ability.
Did you notice the pilot’s contempt expression above? If you didn’t, you are missing valuable information in life. I highly recommend considering my class, if you didn’t. It’s a very low-cost investment to change how you see people for the rest of your life! It’s an investment in protecting yourself from people who can cause harm.
You’re incredible.
This made me want to do more research about the guy, he does seem to match the profile you raised. He made a support message on facebook after the boston bombing happened so he doesn’t seem to support terrorism (especially not of the religious kind). There’s quite a bit conflicting info, I’ve read a few lines somewhere saying he was seeing another woman but i only saw that once so the credibility is quite shaky. His wife doesn’t talk much about what happened.
It surprises me that there is much lack of psychological profiling on Zaharie. Not only can one see deception and arrogance in his eyes, but also that there is much more behind this man. Many writers completely miss what’s painstakingly apparent and that is that Zaharie planned his suicide to a T. It was his intention that the plane never be found, or ensure it would be difficult and expensive. Why? To protect his family, primarily his children. To make sure they would not be ostrasized in the community. Perhaps to also ensure that any Insurance policy would pay out. To secure his pension to which his family is entitled. People forget that he was from Malaysia. A country that maintains a completely different justice system and where decisions can be swept under the carpet and withheld from the general public. He knew this. He was not a stupid man, on the contrary.
Zaharie, likely thrived on maintaining a high status in the community and flaunt his wealth. He was a man of standing in a country such as Malaysia. Did MAS talk to him about early retirement? Did something else occur that would reveal his true colors? We know Malaysia isn’t showing the back of their tongue on this one. Being an airline captain/pilot seemed to be the crux of his life even to the extent of it being “child-like” and “immature”. If that were threatened he would want to make a statement and die in his beloved plane.
I can’t see it. I can’t see the deception. Am not as perceptive as you guys:) I am amazed you can read faces like this. Just recently someone I know looked at a baby and said he could see something mischievous in his eyes. I was impressed. I couldn’t! Well once it was mentioned I thought I could see it. But that’s different and probably self delusion.
