Missing from radar screen - One Boeing 777

[hoopdriver]

The last time I flew was over the handle bars

I've done that too. And in comparison with my homeward flight with BA from Budapest last month one was as much fun as the other. Ditto a flight to Fairbanks with Delta...

False alarm in Gran Canaria.
It does look a bit like a plane, if you squint hard enough.

......Still missing.....

Looking at the pictures on the BBC website, it looks like the French have found a big debris field, it is looking like they may have found it.

I found a plausible explanation for it today on the interweb.

Maybe not. They just moved the search area 600 miles to the northeast. More 'credible' leads...

My 3 month old daughter passed away last year.....it happened in our local town

2 days later we had a phone call from the local paper asking if they could print the story......we said no absolutely not

2 days after that they printed it anyway spread across the front page, my brother in law went to the papers offices to tell them how disgusting they were for printing it when asked not to.......the answer he got was tough it sells my paper......I hate them

So sorry to hear that.

The voyersitic, phone hacking, murkey underworld.....

Yes those Class 66s' are awful deplorable things, and anything about them is of the utmost lack of taste and human decency, I know!!

 

[hoopdriver]

Yes, I too am sorry to hear of your loss. THat would be devastating.

Thanks mate, a few on here know about my daughter, I wasn't trying to change the subject or anything just wanted to give my opinion of the press, ok I'm sure there not all the same but at the time we were going through utter hell so to do what they did still makes me f#%@ing angry

Yes so it seems, every time they seem to be getting close to solving this, some one pops up and moves the goalposts again with "new" evidence.

If these satellite images of debris turn out NOT to be the plane, then there sure is a lot of rubbish floating about in the sea! (as seen in Great Pacific Gyre, etc)

Your ongoing research is commendable ASC, but please close the door, some of us have to work.

I have done my 35 years, thank you very much. I can while away the hours before my bicycle and I take the Big Silver Bird tomorrow for Andalusia, where the weather forecast is <cough> a whole lot worse than here.
