  4. Proven by canon source, and moved to main article.
  5. Speculative and lacking any evidence to support arguments.
  6. Responding to another theory (use discussion page instead).
  • This does not include responses that can stand alone as its own theory.
  • Usage of an indented bullet does not imply the statement is a response.

See the Lostpedia theory policy for more details.

Destination[]

  • Judging from the map found on the Beechcraft in "Deus Ex Machina" the plane may have been headed towards Inedbirenne Airport in Algeria (24 17' 31" N, 9 27' 08" E) which is roughly halfway between Nigeria and Tunisia, where the Polar Bear John and Ben was transported.
    • Tunisia is a logical destination for drug smugglers, since it provides easy access to European ports. Also, Tunisia's former president, Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, was long rumored to be involved in the drug trade.See BBC

Cause of Crash[]

  • If Mr. Eko's brother Yemi died while the plane was airborne, his spirit/ghost could have caused the crash in an effort to help Mr. Eko after having learned of future events. We can assume Yemi's spirit/ghost has some knowledge of the future. In the episode "?", Charlotte Malkin tells Eko what Yemi told her while she was between places, including 'seeing him soon'.
    • The Island was in a different location when the plane crashed on the Island.
  • An airplane of that type, carrying cargo and not loaded with extra fuel tanks would not be traveling far enough from land to encounter an uncharted island. They took off in full daylight so the diversion to the island suggests supernatural intervention.
