New MH370 search aircraft investigation

[marki]

Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 (MH370) disappeared on March 8, 2014, during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board. The last communication was 38 minutes after takeoff, after which the plane deviated from its planned route, last tracked by military radar over the Andaman Sea. Subsequent satellite data from Inmarsat suggested the plane continued flying into the southern Indian Ocean, leading to extensive searches in that region.

Despite vast search efforts, no definitive wreckage was found until debris, confirmed from MH370, washed up on shores like Reunion Island and the East African coast. Theories abound, from mechanical failures to deliberate action by the pilot, but no conclusive cause has been established. The mystery persists, with occasional new searches proposed, but the fate of MH370 and those aboard remains one of aviation's greatest mysteries.

• University of Western Australia (UWA): UWA researchers, particularly Prof. Charitha Pattiaratchi and Dr. Sarath Wijeratne, used the Magnus supercomputer to model debris drift, predicting the trajectory of MH370 debris. Their simulations, based on ocean currents and wind, helped predict where debris would beach if released from various points along the 7th arc, significantly aiding in pinpointing the possible crash site. They successfully predicted the location of much of the debris found, enhancing the search's precision.

  The new search for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 is set to begin after an agreement in principle was reached with Ocean Infinity. According to posts on X and related web results, the search is planned to start once details are finalized and a contract is signed, with no specific start date given but with expectations for the search to commence in the near future after December 20, 2024. The search will focus on a new 15,000 square kilometer area in the southern Indian Ocean under a "no find, no fee" arrangement.

GTA was the agency responsible for examining the Flaperon found off Reunion Island in 2015.

So, where would you be looking in any search? I have idea whatsoever by the way.

Interesting stuff here. It depends on which theory you follow is most accurate. Is the Pilot in control to the end? Or is the Pilot not in control? And are the flaps up or down? Is Whisper technology technology accurate?


"Aerospace engineer Richard Godfrey used an MH370 search aircraft from the Royal New Zealand Air Force on March 28th, 2014, to help validate his new GDTAAA technology (Global Detection and Tracking of Aircraft Anywhere Anytime). This new system is based on the Weak Signal Propagation Reports (WSPR) pronounced ‘whisper’ and promises to give a new search for MH370 a more precise location of the Boeing 777 and also as a backup to the extraordinary satellite and drift modelling tracking of the ill-fated jet with 239 souls on board."
