mattwnz:Geektastic:joker97: Vanished
Yes, but where?
No one seems to have a very good idea of where it vanished and if this secret US thing tracks aircraft all the time, where do they say it is/was?
I think some people know more than has been released to the media. But I think it will br a relatively straight forward explaination as to what has happened, especially has the pilots have now been cleared. That is if we will ever find out, as it is possible it will never be found. I think the tracking requirements are woefully inadequate, especially due to the high cost involved in searching. I wonder who is paying for that
networkn: Looks like it's been found.
China has satellite images of floating object, 72 feet by 43 feet, in the southern search area for Flight 370, Malaysian official says.
Time to find a new industry!
Dratsab:mattwnz: But I think it will br a relatively straight forward explaination as to what has happened, especially has the pilots have now been cleared.
I agree, it will be a very straightforward explanation. The pilots cannot be "cleared" until flight recording devices have been recovered and analysed.

turnin: Three important questions arise from this incident in my mind.
I don't understand why in a post 911 world where many parts of our lives are now monitored and recorded and we are searched, sometimes invasively, when boarding a plane, how it is possible for:
1/ People with stolen passports to board a plane on an international flight without a simple database check to interpol. This already occurs in NZ, why not in ALL nations.
2/ A transponder system to be 'turned off', (whilst pilots currently choose to turn transponders off whilst on runways they could just as easily be left on and any system reading the data from them could recognise them as being "landed" Very simple maths could determine if the transponders are within a bounding box set by the same altitude and lat lng of the airport runway.) A system, in this case crucial, for identifying the aircraft and its location on a public international flight should not be able to be disabled, by anyone.
3/ If terrorism is indeed the reason why this plane disappeared, why did all of the near global collection, storage and analysis of electronic communications and metadata, not detect a terrorist attempt prior to the flight. Clearly either the system does not work or terrorists don't plot their attempts via the internet. In which case what is its purpose?
joker97: Hang on another sec.
So it flew in the dark of night right across Malaysia-Thailand and quite possibly Indonesia and none of these three countries' air force had any issue with that.
I wonder what would happen if some flies across Australia or new Zealand

networkn:joker97: Hang on a sec. Only if they find the black box. Let's hope they do.
Personally I think there is plenty of evidence that supports the pilot(s) being responsible.

If they find the plane in the Indian ocean then I think it can be narrowed down three possibilities
Pilots went there on purpose

joker97: Let's see if anyone finds anything first of all.
A drop in the ocean indeed. If it's even there.
