4) The number of survivors from an obviously unsurvivable crash is a significant element of the "non-natural" aspect of the storyline.

5) In the trailor for the second episode, there was a glimpse of a scene where they get the radio transceiver to work but they don't hear anything that sounds like English (in fact, it didn't even sound human).

6) The reason that the pilot said they were so far off course is that their radio quit working, so they were making to the nearest airport that they could land at. Radio quit working?

Speculations:

1) Passed over to an alternate universe in flight. The flight radio stopped working because they weren't "in Kansas" anymore. The thing living in the bushes is some large predator in that version of Earth. The voices on the radio aren't English (or human) because the speakers aren't English (or human).

2) The island is a lab for unholy genetic (or robotic?) engineering by some corporation or gov't. The voices on the radio aren't English or human sounding because they are encrypted.

Any other ideas out there?

I like your ideas--another possibility is that this is less sci-fi and more fantasy/horror:

3) they're dead, and this is some sort of purgatory/afterlife (and so we get to eventually learn all of their dark secrets, etc. etc.)

4) they're not dead, but they're on the way. They're still in the plane, falling to their doom, and this is an "Occurance at Owl Creek Bridge" sort of thing

I guess "no dinosaurs" means it's not the 21st cnetury land of the lost
