Jitesh posted:But don't planes use GPS for navigation as well? How would they transmit the GPS information back to a source outside of the plane? I'm almost positive the GPS satellites themselves don't hold any location data and if the plane was out of radio contact (which apparently it was if nobody received a mayday) the only place that GPS data would have been stored is in the black box. The GPS on phones has the same issue: they almost certainly weren't connected to a network over the middle of the ocean and so that data is resting with them on the bottom of the ocean somewhere.

A plane can't just disappear. You'd need to hide it under thousands of feet of something and there's just no place on Earth where that could happen.

I'm starting to think this plane may have crashed.

Guys, I think at this point we may have to rule out the possibility of there being any survivors.

Seriously. The plane is either in the hands of Islamists in central Asia or at a secret US military base on an island in the Indian Ocean and you're loving dumb if you think otherwise.
