So, you plan to bring a passenger airplane down on March 8 and on February 3 you delete a bunch of files from your PC. <img src="images/smiles/icon_eek.gif" alt="Shocked" title="Shocked" />

It is thought the files were deleted last month by pilot Capt. Zaharie Ahmad Shah. Files containing records of simulations carried out on the program were deleted February 3.

Malaysia’s inspector-general of police, Khalid Abu Bakar, said an examination of the flight simulator seized from Capt Zaharie’s home revealed that the data logs were deleted on Feb 3. The simulator was apparently used to play three games: Flight Simulator X, Flight Simulator 9 and X-Plane 10.

The "news" (on the accusation front) are that:
he used the flight simulator to attempt landing on "short" strips
his flight simulator has data about a military airport Diego Garcia in the Maldives
#1 So WHAT? What the heck is the use of a flight simulator to a pilot/enthusiast if not experiment the most difficult scenarios?
#2 as well as the data of - say- 1500 other airports all around the world...
About credibility of the press, I believe that anyone that writes the following sentence (or that actually publishes it):

05.40 After ASMA said two objects up to 24 metres (78 ft 9 inches) in size had been spotted by satellite in the southern Indian Ocean, Reuters has published a list of the basic dimensions of the Boeing 777-200ER which was used on Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, according to Boeing's website.
Wing span 60.9 metres (199 feet 10 inches)
Overall length 63.7 metres (209 feet)
Tail Height 18.5 metres (60 feet 9 inches)
Fuselage Diameter 6.19 metres (20 feet 4 inches)
(The length of each wing was not immediately available but the published data implies that each wing is about 27.4 metres long, after adjusting for the width of the fuselage).is capable of *anything* evil.
I mean, WOW, (60.9-6.19)/2=27.355 <img src="images/smiles/icon_eek.gif" alt="Shocked" title="Shocked" />
I guess that no less than two consultants (a mathematician and an aviation expert) were called to obtain this astonishing result. <img src="images/smiles/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" title="Wink" />
