News Malaysia Airlines loses contact with plane carrying 239 people - Page 88

ShowtimeSBMVP · 09:02 AM

Malaysia Airlines says it has lost contact with a plane with 239 aboard enroute from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.

The airline said in a statement early Saturday it was attempting to locate the Boeing 777 after it lost contact with Subang Air Traffic Control at 2:40 a.m. It was scheduled to land in Beijing at 6:30 a.m.

China's state-run news agency Xinhua reported the plane was lost in airspace controlled by Vietnam, and did not make contact with Chinese air traffic controllers.

The plane is carrying 227 passengers, including two infants, and 12 crew members. The airline said it is working with authorities to locate the plane.

Boeing said on its Twitter account it is monitoring the situation, and "our thoughts are with everyone on board."

There's an Australian press conference going on right now. Apparently an Australian ship has also picked up a ping. Seems nothing official has been found though.

It would be incredible if they actually managed to find the damn thing so quick. Hope it keeps going long enough for them to get there.

Sounds like the only received the ping for a short time. If I heard right the longest "acoustic event" was only 90 seconds.

That has to be the best news bombing since that streaker farted on a correspondent on the street.

Australian ship probes another 'pulse signal'

Quote:

Defence ship Ocean Shield detected new acoustic signals on Sunday, in an area separate from the Chinese search.

So the Chinese and Aussie's are picking up separate signals in 2 different places.

So much for this being big news.

Streaker is real, but that fart is fake as hell.

The crew of the Chinese ship reportedly picked up the signals using a hand-held sonar device called a hydrophone dangled over the side of a small runabout - something experts said was technically possible but extremely unlikely.
The equipment aboard the Ocean Shield and the HMS Echo are dragged slowly behind each ship over long distances and are considered far more sophisticated than those the Chinese crew was using.
Footage aired on China's state-run CCTV showed crew members in the small boat with a device shaped like a large soup can attached to a pole. It was hooked up by cords to electronic equipment in a padded suitcase as they poked the device into the water.
"If the Chinese have discovered this, they have found a new way of finding a needle in a haystack," said aviation expert Geoffrey Thomas, editor-in-chief of AirlineRatings.com. "Because this is amazing. And if it proves to be correct, it's an extraordinarily lucky break."

So...... the Chinese are using 2 cans with a string

With U.S. ships dragging the 18 and 19 tails, and subs dragging the 16 and 29 tails, I'm sure we 'should" know more than the Chinese by now.
