MH370 disappeared without a trace five years ago and it is still a mystery what exactly happened – but a shocking theory has emerged that suggests machines wrestled control of the plane from the pilot.

Mr Termini went on to say that he thinks it is “highly likely” that a hijack took place but that there are a number of different ways it could have been hijacked.

The four options he gave were: a crew member, a passenger, a stowaway and an electronic takeover from a ground-based station.

Dr Leivesley pointed out that that there was missing documentation for who had access to MH370 in the hours before take-off.

She suggested it might have been possible for a saboteur to sneak on to the plane and launch the cyberattack.
