A second source said an unidentified aircraft that investigators believe is Flight MH370 has been following a route between two waypoints since it last appeared on radar off Malaysia's northwest coast.

This has led to the theory that the plane may have been piloted by someone with aviation training.

The plane was likely headed toward India's Andaman Islands, a chain of islands between the Andaman Sea and the Bay of Bengal, the source said.

A waypoint is a geographic location established by calculating latitude and longitude, which can help pilots navigate along an air corridor.

A third source quoted by Reuters said that investigators are increasingly convinced that someone influenced the plane carrying 239 people to deviate from its original flight path from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.

"What we can say right now is that there was sabotage, possibly a hijacker, still on board," the source said.
