Why the Official Explanation of MH370’s Demise Doesn’t Hold Up

[jakeXT]

Even before the black-box search turned up empty, observers had begun to raise doubts about whether searchers were looking in the right place. Authorities have treated the conclusion that the plane crashed in the ocean west of Australia as definitive, owing to a much-vaunted mathematical analysis of satellite signals sent by the plane. But scientists and engineers outside of the investigation have been working to verify that analysis, and many say that it just doesn’t hold up.

2. Saw a program yesterday...

and another group who studies pings - actually do real satellite work - say Inmarset's analysis is flawed. They tried "back engineering" and couldn't come up with it.

Problem is raw data won't be released by Inmarset - to Malaysia or not I don't know.

The best guests they had on CNN was when it all started....was it Les somebody or other who said that if he were flying the plane he would have gone north....He knows the area very well and vouched for the poor radar used by the countries in the north - no money for better equipment and they turned off whatever they had in a lot of cases to save money.

And then there was the fellow who ran to the police station from his fishing boat after being all shook up by a big plane flying very low - he claims he saw its doors.....Mary Schiavvo claimed he had to be wrong because its doors would not be visible from 4000 feet - but who said how high the plane was...the witness didn't.

I hope they start having coverage on again when the newer search methods are used.

I am so tired of basketball, basketball team owners, taped phone calls, and what a bore...

I just looked at your link again, and I'm sure that Schulman was the guy I saw on CNN yesterday, and they did say to read all about it in The Atlantic.

Thanks for posting and reminding me..
