Diverted MH370 path never used by pilots before

Neither the pilot nor co-pilot of the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 had any experience flying on the new route that their aircraft was mysteriously programmed to divert to, says Malaysia Airlines chief executive officer Ahmad Jauhari Yahya.

MAS' confirmation today indicate that pilot Zaharie Ahmah Shah or co-pilot Fariq Ab Hamid were flying on an unfamiliar route, if they were indeed still in control of the cockpit.
