Missing MH370 was thrown around like a fighter jet as if it were being flown to avoid radar detection, say investigators.

                                               The missing Malaysia Airlines plane climbed as high as 45,000ft before plunging to less than 5,000ft in what Malaysian military investigators believe was a deliberate attempt to shake off radar signals and disappear. The plane was piloted by Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah (top right) and his co-pilot Fariq Ab Hamid (bottom right) when it vanished more than a month ago. International search efforts are now focused on a stretch of the Indian Ocean where 'pings' - believed to be from the plane's black box - were picked up earlier in the week. A British ship - the HMS Echo - has recently joined the search, while well-wishers in Kualar Lumpur (left) can only wonder and pray.
