Yes, I know about those.
So no verified accounts, then? It can't have been where those 'witnesses' claim to have seen a plane and also where the inmarsat data places it, and I feel the inmarsat data is more compelling
Well if that's the case the authorities only have to go and verify them don't they, this isn't rocket science is it....have they even bothered ?So no verified accounts, then?

This is what it would take to get a 777 into space.It's just that it would be going a lot further than the moon.

On the other hand, this would give the 777 the ability to cloak as it's using Romulan technology, so could be hovering over our heads and we'd be none the wiser.www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-cv_JJOxGI

Quite clearly the answer is to get the US to recommission the USS Enterprise, get it into orbit with William and Leonard commanding the ship and search for the 777 from there.

Anyway,I'm not going out there, it's full of the Borg

I haven't seen these videos but there were witnesses from Malaysia, and according to Inmarsat pings the plane overflew malaysian mainland so it does add upSo no verified accounts, then?

I don't know what type of verification you need? They are just an ordinary people.

Now here comes the decomp theory. Had there been a decompression, the cockpit would have lit up like a Christmas tree.
The example they are quoting was not the same as MH370. The crew saw the alarms but ignored them.
Not ignored, misinterpreted. Sadly the Engineer on the ground in Maintenance control recognised the noise and suggested they check the switch for the outflow valve switch but the skipper was already hypoxic and not thinking clearly.The example they are quoting was not the same as MH370. The crew saw the alarms but ignored them.
I find it heart breaking every time I hear that Helios story, whats even more tragic is the Greek courts treatment of the Engineer involved in the pressurisation checks before the flight. The flight attendant was so close to being able to do something but sadly never happened.
Anyway, back to MH370. For a change I actually found that to be an excellent non-sensational documentary. Really nailed explaining how Inmarsat came to narrow the search area in laymans terms.
Still holding out hope they will find it.

Media Release
18 June 2014
The Australian contracted survey vessel Fugro Equator has commenced operations in a defined search area, joining Chinese PLA-Navy ship Zhu Kezhen in undertaking survey activities.
Under the direction of the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB), the two vessels are conducting the bathymetric survey—or mapping of the sea floor—which is crucial to carrying out the deep water search for MH370 that is scheduled to commence in August.
At the end of May, Zhu Kezhen suffered a defect to its multibeam echosounder and came into the port of Fremantle to enable the necessary repairs to be conducted.
The defect has been rectified and the ship will resume operations in the search area shortly.
So far, the Zhu Kezhen has surveyed 4,088 square kilometres of the ocean floor.
It is anticipated that it will take at least three months to complete the bathymetric survey of the 60,000 square kilometre search zone.
The ships will regularly send survey data to the ATSB and Geoscience Australia. This data will be used to progressively build a map of the search area.
The search area will be confirmed before the end of June, after completion of extensive collaborative analysis by a range of specialists.
It is already clear from the provisional results of that analysis that the search zone will move, but still be on the seventh arc (where the aircraft last communicated with satellite).

I'd put a lot more faith in whatever Fugro come up with compared to anything the Chinese come up with. I wonder if AMSA secretly wish the Chinese would pMedia Release

s off as anything they survey may need to be surveyed again properly, which could be diplomatically awkward. (Companies I've worked for have contracted Fugro before. I've also worked for a state owned Chinese company before. There is a reason why I said what I wrote above.)

How are TV production company in the UK going to know more than than the search teams in the actual region?
Could happen .. just look at the number of experts on PH who know more than the search teams ....But
What seriously concerns me now is there's still not one shred of confirmed debris, after three and a half months. I know the sea is big, and I know that one piece of debris still isn't the same as the location of the flight recorder, but ... so much discussion in the preceding 300 pages of how a controlled landing on sea was impossible, meaning there would definitely be some (plastic?) floating debris ...

How long do bits of plane say afloat ?
If it was a nose dive surely there would be no wreckage on the surface or so minimal to make it impossible to find
Have you ever done a belly flop into a pool? It hurts, water is hard. If it was a nose dive surely there would be no wreckage on the surface or so minimal to make it impossible to find
If it nosedived in, there would be millions of little pieces floating on the water for ever more!

Some may have already drifted ashore, but there's nothing to identify any particular bit of foam or plastic washed up on a beach as coming from the aircraftGassing Station | News, Politics & Economics | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
