That video should have been 30 seconds long. "What happend?" "We have no data - let me go figure out what happened once we find evidence and I'll get back to you." Instead it was "We have no data - here's what happened and who's covering it up." It almost made me angry just how much substance every sentence lacked and how full of crap they were.

2 years to find the black boxes from a flight in 2009 that had crashed into the ocean. it's been 5 weeks? in the indian ocean in a massive search area. Give the countrys and it's people some bloody credit mate. I bet if you were sitting on the bottom of the indian ocean in a submarine for 5 weeks you wouldn't expect them to look for a remote control that guided you're sub to area 51! |

I hope John Travolta doesn't use his QANTAS marked plane for a false flag or the other 70 aircraft currently in use by other companies with partial old markings on them of their old airline on them including El Al (Israeli Aircraft now in use by Greece), QANTAS, Aeroflot, China Southern, American Airlines and the lsit goes on. If you wanted to use one for a false flag, you would use the Ex EL AL aircraft due to the political and financial fall out it would cause world wide. |

Unless they have some oiler replenishment ships out there then the ships will have to port and replenish stocks. Even if we had an oiler out there it is highly likely it would not compatible with the Chinese ships for underway refuelling.

Just surprising they came here and not closer to the main search area. We are 400km south of perth in the southern ocean.

Nearly 6 weeks and still nothing.
The worlds not a small place after all.

The plane is lost, the pings have now stopped and it would be a miracle if it is ever found, considering the depth of the ocean where the search is currently being conducted.

How long is it unitl the officials call it quits?
If nothing comes up in the next 6 weeks does everyone just go home? Maybe leaving just one crew out there indefinitely working 8 months out of the year? How's it work

As the voids being left by no factual evidence grow bigger, I'm starting to believe some of the conspiracy theories myself. This sounds plausible...

We've all seen the link on here, the plane is in Israel and it is the Israeli's doing a false flag operation. The case has been solved. The passengers are probably living in a Tel Aviv hotel.

The depths involved are staggering...nearly five kilometers down. That's way below...kilometers below actually...the crush depth of the British nuclear sub that's out there, and even the robots are having trouble. The one they have can only go down 2.8 kilometers (and I say "only" advisedly...that's a hell of a long way down). Then he describes the rover he is complaining about and says it "hovers 150 feet above the sea floor: taking readings. It can't go that deep...few devices can, and then not complicated ones. As they accurately say: we know more about the surface of Mars than we do about the depths of our own oceans, because Mars is easier to get to. |

Tony Abbott was on the news saying he's gonna give it one more week before they reevaluate the search.
It's not there, was never there, and they know that. |

If they do find it I wonder if they will also find that old thread about whether house prices will continue to rise.
Both seemed to disappear without a trace. |

Nothing really adds up. I considered the possibility that assylum in WA was on the cards, but an experienced pilot would have known they couldn't make it. If it was a suicide by the pilot, there would have been no need to avoid radar etc, just crash the bloody thing. My other theory about radar avoidance is that ghe countries involved are too incompetent and saw the blip and just said "meh" and the avoiding radar story is lies. This is a very funny situation indeed, part of me thinks it is at bottom of ocean, but part of me thinks not. I would never believe a conspiracy, but somedays I do wonder. the funny part in this is that alot of us who would normally scoff at conspiracy are beginning to just wonder if one or two of them may be on the money.

I believe that it will be years before the plane is found, if ever.

I see that the Australian and Malaysian governments are drafting up a Memorandum of Understanding, which specifies who does what and areas of responsibility when recovering the wreckage, and subsequent investigation.
Boeing being the Type Certificate holder for the aircraft, and FAA being the certifying authority surely would have a big say in this. Last edited by Silver Ghia; 19-04-2014 at 01:50 PM. |
