My keyboard resembles piranhas nibbling on my fingers, my mouse just started dancing around the room (and I don’t even like the song it picked!) and the monitor is starting to breath…

I think these are signs that Lunesta is no longer optional, rather a necessity at this time!!!!!

Night guys!

Good article about the P-8s and P-3s involved in the search. Boeing jets looking for another Boeing jet.

Boeing high-tech Navy plane joins hunt for jet
Even in this high-tech age, the search for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 may rely on good luck and the oldest of sensors: the human eye.

After a futile search in the Andaman Sea that produced 400 radar contacts and no sign of aircraft debris or other clues, the U.S. Navy has sent its most advanced surveillance plane, a P-8A Poseidon, to join planes from Australia and New Zealand in scanning 230,000 square miles off the southern Indian Ocean.

While Navy surveillance planes are equipped with radar, cameras and electrooptical sensors, searching for objects on open water is an arduous task, with sailors at every window looking with binoculars and the plane diving to identify targets visually, said Michael Boston, a retired Navy chief petty officer who’s served as an electronic-warfare specialist on a P-3C Orion surveillance plane.

One interesting quote

If the crew detects anything or is given more precise search locations, they could drop sonobuoys — launched from the plane’s belly that act like underwater microphones to listen for any “pings” from the missing plane’s black boxes, Burgess said. The pingers are supposed to emit signals for 30 days after becoming immersed in water.

The 1st Orion sent to the search area is due back at base 7:00 pm, that's in 10 minutes.This was the plane with reporters on board so a briefing is expected later.

Night Cariis thanks to you and everyone else for your posts and updates.

From DM but interesting.



Interesting. If the wreckage is found there, it really eliminates the popular 'startlingly simple' theory floating around.

Actually, I think it bolsters the theory. It's had 13 days to get that far south from wherever it crashed. In addition, in the Simple Theory: Aviate, navigate, communicate...in that order, it also explains the buses would have been pulled on transponder, and communication on purpose due to any fire, smoke etc but that doesn't mean the pilot did or did not have control of many different things...did his best attempt to safely land and couldn't. Maybe didn't have landing gear or couldn't get low enough to land on the 13,000 runway at Pulau Langwaki airport, flew over it (last spotted on radar) over the Malacca Straight (witnesses) and into the Indian Ocean but stayed in the air until pilot and crew was incapacitated, out of fuel or aircraft was inoperable.

Me too!

Which is extra sad because I know the news will be there in the morning or it wont. What however scares me is that some reporter wont report it to me the way it is supposed to be reported.!
I dunno know what news it is ! How am I susposed to guess how it should be reported?

I know :floorlaugh:! I don't think I can stay awake any longer though..argh! I have to "wake up" in five hours..

I am simply hoping and praying parts fell off the plane, but the pilot was able to safely land and they are all huddled somewhere awaiting rescue...

seriously, what is that ?

The AP-3C Orion is an extremely versatile aircraft used to conduct long-range surveillance missions throughout the Indian and Pacific oceans.
The Orions are fitted with radar, infra-red and visual systems which allow crew to see objects at night and in the distance, as well as magnetic anomaly detectors which help in identifying metal.

The Poseidon is an even more advanced aircraft described by the US as a long-range anti-submarine warfare, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance plane aircraft capable of broad-area maritime operations.

Is this something you found recently, momrids6? What IS that?

I hope they tell us something good soon!!:truce:

so there is hope that they may be able to continue searching throughout the night then?

If that's 7pm Western Australia time, it's still a few hours away.

I have stared at tomnod looking over waves so often that it made me laugh to pull up your link and do it again. I caught myself starting to search after I swore off.
