No, Jeff Wise's theory is that the satellite data was faked by the hijackers, leaving a false trail in the southern direction, while the plane actually flew north towards China/Russia.
If so, MH370 landed somewhere, and they could easily take the flaperon off the plane, stick it in a wind tunnel at high speed so that it rips off, and then dunk it in a water tank for 4 months to cover it with barnacles, and then drop it off a container ship. Or something like that.

How easy or hard is it to hack that data? And I assume you mean they stick the flaperon in a tunnel until it tore up, not off, because you'd just sais it'd been remover in that hypothesis.
What sort of wind speed would be needed to damage an integral piece like that?
