The first "Cyber Hijacked in the world?"

 When time keeps on processing and less and less of theories are remains we start to go for theories that have the little possibility that could happen, but they could happen like a cyber hijack. Cyber hijack has been detected in most flight system has been proven by the recent document of a person claiming that they had cyber hacked into flight controls causing the plane to crash. But luckily that was only a test alerting airlines and Boeing to upgrade their flight system since it has been proven to be beatable from the ground.
  The claim of the hijack was possible phone device that could somehow break through a system. This is where I need to stop for newly highly advanced phones because that can break into so many security systems and fool it with a false  reading. Then also with hijack with a phone the person who did it could go undetected since there will be no reading the black box stating where the signal came from. So the question is do we need to do something to our phones to prevent people hijacking into major security systems? Even if this statement is not true we still need to look into this problem because this event could still happen.
 Now for possible event of the cyber "Cyber-Hijack" multiple things that had to happen. First and obvious is the person had to know how to beat the Boeing flight system security. Then the next move he had to somehow hear the communication between the flight tower and two pilots. The reason for this is because the timing of the  turnaround was very precious and the chance of it {word} happening is extremely rare to occur. Then the last step was then to take control of the plane itself. Here what I can image in the cockpit if this event happened, when the last communication with the ground was made, the radio had suddenly turned off along with transponder. The reaction of pilots could of say "Turn back to Kuala Lumpur." Then from there we will never know what happened.

This resource helped me in the way of decsirbing how a cyber hijack is very simple these days by connecting strong words like using a simple app can take a plane from the skies. Also very good in backing up his research of the whole cyber thing connecting to how it could affect the flight of MH370.
