What if it forgot to turn downward and flew in a straight line into space? We'd never find it. :stare:

unless they flew towards alpha centauri, made planetfall, and started a new civilization there

then, in a few centuries, their descendants will find us when they return at the head of a huge invasion fleet :tinfoil:

This came up a few times in the old thread, the thing is that GPS gives you the ability to know exactly where you are but it is unidirectional - you can't send a message back to the GPS satellites. You need to be able to send a separate signal out to either communications satellites or a local radio or cellphone link for other people to be able to see the GPS information that you see. There is no universal global tracking system keeping tabs on airliners and once it's crashed into the ocean the water masks the radio signals that the black box needs to be able to send out to tell people where it is.


There is work being done to create a global tracking network for airliners but this won't help us to find MH370

Super late but I appreciate this post, now I understand why it hasn't been found.

Lost was why I became an alcoholic. I lived for that show man, LIVED for it....then as it made less and less sense, I felt that being always drunk made it make perfect sense.

I stopped watching mid season 2 when I was like "this poo poo is getting retarded."

I always seem to jump ship on shows at the right time.

LOST is like this thread. It was fun while it was on, debating the various mysteries with other people that watched it. But as soon as it ended you were like "why the gently caress did I waste time on that poo poo". If MH370 is ever found, you'll feel the same way about this thread.

They have until July to find it.

The man in charge of the search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight 370 has confirmed the underwater hunt off the West Australian coast will be called off as soon as July, unless significant new evidence emerges.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-05-17/mh370-search-to-be-called-off-as-soon-as-july/7420420

If not found by then, it will be lost forever.

I hope that after the government effort to not find the plane ends, a privatized effort to continue to not find the plane takes its place.

UPDATE: Egypt aviation says it probably crashed:

AP posted:

The plane most likely crashed into the sea, Ihab Raslan, a spokesman for the Egyptian civil aviation authority, told SkyNews Arabia. He said the plane was about to enter Egyptian airspace when it disappeared from radar. The airline, however, said the Airbus A320 had vanished 10 miles (16 kilometers) after it entered Egyptian airspace.
