With the recent revelation that we will know how the plane was taken down by the end of this season, I’ve been thinking about some things regarding this.
First, I think that *how* they reveal this information might be more interesting than the information itself. I’m sure that whatever they reveal will uncover more questions, but in order to tell the story they will have to tell it from the perspective of someone who knows it, which probably means a flashback from someone we haven’t seen much backstory on yet. Whether it’s the people responsible, or one of the survivors who knows more than they’ve revealed so far, it will be interesting.
Secondly, I have conflicting thoughts about the crash itself. Without some kind of nearly supernatural intervention, there’s no way a plane that size could be ripped apart and go down like that with that many survivors. I guess that if it was some kind of powerful magnetic force that actually ripped the plane up and guided the pieces down more slowly than they otherwise would fall, they could stand a chance of a greater number of people surviving.
In any event, I’ve pretty much decided that I don’t believe any theories which involve these specific people being set up to be on the plane (and then the island). The reason is because if they wanted / needed these specific individuals, it would be way too risky to crash a plane with them on it, because they could never tell who would survive. The only way they could get around that would be if the plane did not actually crash, but I think they’ve tried to make it pretty clear that it did.
Lastly, how is it that the midsection of the plane ended up on one beach, the tail on another side of the island, and the cockpit in between the two of them somewhere in the middle? This would certainly seem to suggest either the crash was very artificial in nature or it didn’t actually “crash” at all.
