Regardless of whether or not you manually switch off the ADS transponders, the aircraft would still show up on radar, hence the unlikely-ness of the aircraft making its way across land undetected (which I mentioned in my last post ).
I am clearly spitballing here, but I think at this point its clear that the aircraft is not tucked away on some remote dirt landing strip somewhere in South East Asia. There has likely been a catastrophic event which has led to a rapid and uncontrolled crash into the surrounding seas. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, searchers have been unable to locate any major debris fields due to a number of possibilities: The aircraft and any other parts belonging to it have sunk to the bottom of the ocean or that searchers are not looking in the right areas.
