MH370

[Kiwifruit]

The search has now stopped for MH370.
How in this day and age can you lose a large passenger jet?
Any idea gents ?

Only thing I can think of it followed my sat nav around the Antwerp ring road.
But seriously they say every fight is followed from before tale of to after landing so should never happen .
It's a lot of lives lost and families suffering.

So sad for all the souls on that flight. R.I.P. MH370

By flying to the wrong (or right) places. Flights are only tracked by their transponders over the parts of the globe they normally fly, large areas of the planet's surface aren't covered, mostly in the southern hemisphere. Then it just needs to land right (or wrong) so all large parts sink.

Didn't help that the pilot turned the transponder off I guess - and oceans are a bigggggggggggggggg place

Ye its very sad ! ... but as said the oceans are huge and theres's stuff being washed up from ships that sunk over 50 years ago , so something my still come to light yet !

Yep very very BIG - looking for a needle in a haystack is orders of magnitude easier than looking for MH370.

The only place the full flight path of the aircraft will be recorded is.. on the aircraft.
