Interested to know more about the 5 fail to boards. They mustn't have come from a connecting flight as reports say their baggage had to be off loaded, so I assume they checked in at KL as I cant imagine the bags getting there before the pax.

Thomas,
Pingers only transmit on a limited range. Once the aircraft is found the pingers are then used to locate the boxes. Unfortunately it's a small fish in a big ocean until some trace is found. |
Please excuse my ignorance, but of the theories that one of the reasons debris may not have (yet) been found is due to disintegration in the air caused by catastrophic explosion, I have these questions:
1. What would cause an explosion so powerful that complete disintegration would occur and leave no debris, even small parts of the plane flung far and wide? 2. Why would such an explosion at night not be seen by those on the ground or other intra-Asia redeye flights flying at similar altitude on a clear night? 3. Etc. |

Again whilst what you say is indeed 100% correct, my response, is also right, especially the context of the post I was replying to. Now I am sure you will agree if an aircraft were have done was Laurent was suggesting then somewhere along the line it would be detected by radar and being unidentified suspicions would be aroused. Sadly other than a crash there is no way for an airliner to just disappear like it has done. So the answer to Laurent again is yes an aircraft with a transponder turned off will still be detected by radar, but add all of Hugh's caveats. |

You too can help look for the missing aircraft....
http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headline...ia-flight-370/ An American company has set up a web site to enable users to scour the area where MH370 is believed to have gone down using imagery from 5 satellites. Web site below: http://www.tomnod.com/nod/challenge/...014?source=abc |
That's awesome. I'm already checking the first images.
