I read about the Maldives sightings earlier but I thought they had been discounted by various parties. Distance from the Maldives to Mogadishu appears to be roughly the same as London to Athens (or New York to Denver); I'm fairly sure that based on the fuel that the plane was carrying it didn't have the range to get from its last point of contact to Somalia (or anywhere else in Africa). Yemen was also out of its range.
