There are too many stupid people in the world. I'm not saying we should kill them all or anything. Just take the warning labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself.

I've been hitting the button for the cabin attendant but that bitch still has not made so much as one look towards this area. I hate this airline and hope this plane disappears. Also it seems like this flight has been going on for at least a month.

The black box that is pinging is actually Amelia Earhart's black box.

Also, my ping is like 20 ms according to speedtest.net

CNN has the biggest hardon for this plane, if it is found the ratings will fall.

Kind of makes you think.

Kids stabs up a school, cnn is like gently caress that, the plane is more important.

To help find the plane, I've flown the same route in microsoft flight simulator three hundred times now, each with a different in-flight failure. Each flight model ended the same.. all passengers dead and the plane on the bottom of the ocean. I've submitted my results to Malaysian airlines and president obama but they have not gotten back to me

If they find the plane, CNN will be crushed as they won't have anything left to report. Poor CNN.

I was listening to a report on the search for the missing plane yesterday and the expert they were speaking to explained that the boat which found the pings is using a 'ping locater' device which is one the end of a 3000m (1.8 mile) long cable. The ocean is approximately 4500m (2.7 miles) deep and at the bottom of the ocean is a 20m (65 feet) deep layer of silt in which the plane could theoretically be buried.

So even after locating the ping (or 'a ping' at least) there is still these immense obstacles that need to be overcome while trying to locate the plane.

In summation,

They found the Air France 447 boxes about 2 years after it went down, but they knew where it was pretty quickly. I imagine if they find the actual crash location they'll eventually get the boxes. I've been wondering lately though if the boxes are solid state or tape/magnetic storage.

This may have been said already;

It's on Diego Garcia bring repainted.
It will then go thru a time-portal piloted by advanced android sex-dolls and be the first plane to strike the WTC on 9-11-01.

It's a ploy by the Zionist/Military Industrial Complex/Republican conglomerate to initiate over a decade of war (more)in the Middle East.

The passengers (most of them) are going thru another time portal warp back to the 1800's where they will work on the railroads in the Western part of the USA. That is a ploy by the Union Pacific/Robber Baron/Evil Mustache Twirly Men to build the Transcontinental Railroad.
