Inmarsat didn't provide time line

Is there robust information that the aircraft did indeed provide information to the satellites for so long ? Any credible source ?

If he was oxygen deprived, and did pass out, the plane would continue on present course and just keep following the flight planned route.. No reason why he'd put the transponder to STBY. Btw, on a 777, the cabin altitude indication is quite visible to the crew and, I have to check the logic, but for sure before it becomes toxic, there will be a warning .............

ACARS is a very custom system that varies between different Airlines.... But based on my experience... Should there be aany failures, the acars will very likely downlink the error messages.. If aircraft flew until out of fuel... Someone will be in the know

So the RR claim was false?

If they really were flying for so many hours after lost of comms.... I'm surprised they found themselves so far away. If they had an emergency.... They would land at the nearest suitable air field I doubt the crew decided to fly around aimlessly ACARS works out of VHF 3..... We can rule out any electrical problem since VHF 3 should not be powered in that situation... Game changer.

More opportunists .... Don't forget, even the NTSB ain't going to be giving you full briefings everyday about what they find out There may be more information out there than you are privileged to know .... who knows... News outlets are really flipping burgers on this one.... Whatever they're publishing, they know for sure you're going to read it and share it.... They'll throw anything out there.

That could mean anything, just before crashing? Or way before ? not credible enough.

I hope that security isn't tightened too much post mh370

I expected that for sure... I mean seriously... Berita harian.... Coming up with credible news...... What a joke

ChaiTY, the time will come

Spent two evenings spotting at CBP One absolutely horrible evening, and one that turned out pretty well......

Nice shots I really gotta make it a point to head up north for spotting soon

They should put something on those winglets ( logo or paint it perhaps )

Thats an awesome spot! Makes me feel like packing my bags and heading there right now! 50mm from the action ! sweet...

Radzi, Spot is still great, weather isn't so nice ....

FIA must have been done fairly recently. I just had a photo of her 2 or 3 weeks back in the original colours.

damn Din, those are some nice shots

Great initiative.

Damn that EK is one hell of a touch down

Rest assured it triggered an automated FOQA[ Flight Operations Quality Assurance ] report and relevant people will be informed as well as necessary checks done on the aircraft.

Anybody Spotting this weekend?

Might make a trip to PEN this weekend. Hopefully the weather works out well

Love the 380 nose shot...
