Australia Elaborates On a New Drift Model To Find MH370
hcs_$reboot writes Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 disappeared on Saturday, 8 March 2014, while flying from Malaysia to Beijing with 239 people on board. And 8 months later, after millions of dollars invested in a gigantic search operation, there is still no sign of the aircraft. Now, Australia is developing a new model to predict where the debris of the missing MH370 could wash up. Authorities had initially predicted that the plane's wreckage could drift and come ashore on Indonesia's West Sumatra island after about 4 months of Flight MH370's disappearance. "We are currently working... to see if we can get an updated drift model for a much wider area where there might be possibilities of debris washing ashore," search co-ordinator Peter Foley told reporters in Perth.
One crashed within our search and rescue zone, the other had 27 of our citizens on board. But hey, believe what you want, shame its clearly wrong.
It's not hard to disappear if you turn off your transponder and then fly out of primary radar range.
Where did you hear that Australia were paying $50M/day looking for MH370? More like 1% of that, and Malaysia is paying 50% of the bill.
But you wouldn't know anything about numbers, because you're a fucking bogan moron. You are too stupid to be here, fuck off.
