Several folks have been asking me for my opinions about this affair. (
Silentfeathers being the most recent. Thanks, Jim!

Here's what I can add, if indeed it's worth much at this stage: (And even after what feels like all this time, this might be quite an early stage.)
...
- Diego Garcia was one of the immediate destinations I thought of. It was within range, just. Camelot whistleblower 'Henry Deacon' talked of the place often. And it seems highly significant that it was one of the deleted practice destinations on the pilot's flight simulator (this seems to be a fact). Of course, the US would deny/ridicule that the plane flew there (and has), and no-one might ever know for sure. It does strike me as potentially significant that in the 24/7 headline coverage on CNN, Diego Garcia has as best I know NEVER been mentioned in reports or in any interviews. It's like they've been ordered not to mention the place under any circumstances.
- Besides the various interesting claims made on Veterans Today (and other sites), it's interesting to note that Erik Rush says here that he knows for a fact that the plane flew to Diego Garcia. At much the same time, a caller into C2C stated that he knew for a fact that it ended up in Pakistan. It's conceivable that both could be valid, but it's a stretch. But at this stage, whatever happened has to be a stretch by 'normal' standards.
