The Numbers
- Flight 316 may indicate a change in the numbers.
- 316 is the area code for Wichita, Kansas furthering the Wizard of Oz parallels that are so prevalent throughout Lost
- Battalion 316 was a CIA-trained military unit in Argentina, Honduras and Chile in the 1970's. They were responsible for hundreds of kidnappings, assassinations, and thousands of incidents of torture.
- May be a Biblical reference: John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." "John" and the son of God mentioned could both refer to John Locke. The eternal life could be a reference to Jack, Kate, Hurley and Sayid, the 316 passengers who Locke visited, travelling back in time when 316 crashed. God's son could also be an allegory for Jacob in this case.
The original Numbers and the Lost Timeline
- As the plane is crashing you can hear "4 8 15 16 23 42" being read aloud over the plane's transmitter. Given that this signal was taken down in the 1980's, the fact that this signal is being played when Aijira 316 crashes might suggest something more complicated about when the plane actually arrives on the island, and thus about the Lost timeline in general
