Not really. The data analysis from Inmarsat, combined with the radar data from the countries along the northern arc (and lack of any evidence of an unknown 777 on it), is pretty reliable. They know where the pings came from - unless an engine detached and flew on its own without the plane for 7 hours while sending pings, that's not possible. What is easily possible, of course, is that what they think is debris isn't from the plane at all. But the plane is somewhere out there. And it's totally plausible that they won't find it, but with this search, they will probably eventually get some kind of sign.

Rumors are rumors!
