Just think, if Top had been on MH370... we would know exactly where it was

Not really, he wouldn't be a pilot hence transponder wouldn't have been switched off by him.

Planes do go this way maybe this is a quicker route for a small jet

surely it would be simpler if you were flying to the southern hemisphere to fly down the African coast and across the southern Atlantic? ive flew the route the planes on now. think the furthest south this is going is mexico.

I think there are "rules" regarding trans oceanic flights which means that aircraft have to be in range of an airport in case of emergency and the range depends on the aircraft, number of engines etc.

It doesn't quite work that way Liam. Transatlantic aircraft follow routes called NAT tracks which are calculated daily based on the pressure systems over the Atlantic. They're also based on Great Circle routes. I shall now stand by to be accused of geekness.......
