Iannello and Godrey
An alternative possibility is a flight path using Cocos Island as a waypoint initially. After flying toward Cocos the plane, in this model, was redirected toward Exmouth, AU. The flight path from 19:40 to 00:11 is shown in Goggle Earth below (green path). The path to the Cocos is almost identical to the path to McMurdo Station. No explanation is offered for the initial path to Cocos or for the subsequent selection of Exmouth as a destination. These paths may simply have been convenient selections in the onboard waypoint menu, and suited Shah's purpose at the time.

Note: Not everything in this blog is linked in the public domain, however, that does not mean the information is meant to be private. I just regard it in the category of personal notes or a personal diary. It is a convenient way for me to keep these "research ramblings" organized and not lose them in a bunch of loose papers as I am prone to do. Feel free to use anything here in any manner you wish.
