From Reuters:
(Reuters) - Military radar data suggests a Malaysia Airlines jetliner missing for nearly a week was deliberately flown hundreds of miles off course, heightening suspicions of foul play among investigators, sources told Reuters on Friday.
Analysis of the Malaysia data suggests the plane, with 239 people on board, diverted from its intended northeast route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing and flew west instead, using airline flight corridors normally employed for routes to the Middle East and Europe, said sources familiar with investigations into the Boeing 777's disappearance.
Two sources said an unidentified aircraft that investigators believe was Flight MH370 was following a route between navigational waypoints when it was last plotted on military radar off the country's northwest coast.
This indicates that it was either being flown by the pilots or someone with knowledge of those waypoints, the sources said.
The last plot on the military radar's tracking suggested the plane was flying toward India's Andaman Islands, a chain of isles between the Andaman Sea and the Bay of Bengal, they said.

SEPANG, Malaysia — Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 experienced significant changes in altitude after it lost contact with ground control, and altered its course more than once as if still under the command of a pilot, American officials and others familiar with the investigation said Friday.
Radar signals recorded by the Malaysian military appear to show the missing airliner climbing to 45,000 feet, above the approved altitude limit for a Boeing 777-200, soon after it disappeared from civilian radar and made a sharp turn to the west, according to a preliminary assessment by a person familiar with the data.

Funny, this youtube video of radar evidence suggested the sudden jump in altitude ...days ago
Busted! Flight Radar Caught Changing Flight Path of Malaysia Flight 370!. Now has over a million views.
One scenario discussed online:
Depressurize the cabin (maybe in concert with a steep ascent or dive) - Depressurize the cabin at altitude after shutting down emergency oxygen supply to the cabin. Dead passengers in 3 minutes. ]
The old ones and the young ones would be first to die as well as anyone with a heart condition or repritory issue, some may survive, albiet pass into unconciousness...
You don’t really need extra O2 at 30,000ft to stay alive but you do need it to stay awake.
However once everyone is either dead ot knocked out by hypoxia, it would be a trivial thing for a hijacker to walk around the cabin and kill anyone left with a heartbeat....
They could get around the cabin by using the portable O2 devices the flight attendents use in case of depressurization...
If anyone did remain concious (say you has someone accustomed to high altitude living) they wouldn’t be able to put up much of a fight at 30k feet as they would get tired really easily even with adrenaline...
Could be another reason why they chose a night flight, most people would already be asleep....
After some time, repressurize and continue on...
