more conspiracy theories

All these accidents in the news involving air force aircraft and civilian planes, me smells something fishy. Some theories:

Theory No. 1. The owners of the planes are tax evaders. The BIR seems to have found new energy to start running after everybody for their correct taxes, from business men and corrupt army generals to movie stars and basketball players. So to avoid getting sued, maybe they had to sell some parts. I could imagine this scenario with the plane already in the air:

Pilot: Air traffic control, this is flight xyz123 requesting for landing, over.
Air Traffic Control: Flight xyz123, please begin landing procedure, over.
Pilot: Roger.
Air Traffic Control: Flight xyz123, I repeat, please begin landing procedure, over.
Pilot: Air traffic control, we have already begun landing procedure, over...
Air Traffic Control: Flight xyz123, please release your landing gear immediately. The runway is now a few hundred meters away, over.
Copilot: (To the pilot) Uh... sir... i forgot to mention this, the boss had to borrow the emergency landing gear...
Pilot: What?! Air traffic control, we have no landing gear! Mayday! Mayday!

CRAAASH...

Theory No. 2. This could be an evil plot by some super secretive terrorist organization. They could be testing a new form of weapons system that could be used on any aircraft and make it look as if the crash was due to pilot error. Or maybe I'm just watching too many episodes of Alias. Sidney Bristow, where are you?

Theory No. 3. This is a variation of the previous thoery. It could be a part of an alien conspiracy to take over the planet. They're targeting aircarft as part of their effort to undermine the earth's defenses before they could start their invasion. But better leave this to Agents Mulder and Scully, this is an X-File.

Theory No. 4. How about... if... the Air Transportation Office isn't doing its job and the Philippine Air Force doesn't have money for spare parts? 'nuf sed.
