If as the Wall Street Journal is reporting, the lost Malaysia Airlines 777 may have transmitted automated service messages for hours after it disappeared, the entire search effort will be in the process of being totally restructured now.
Nothing, no matter how way out can be ruled out in the saga of MH370, not even after it is officially denied, like the Royal Malaysia Air Force radar tracking of an unidentified jet following the disappearance hawaii travel sites to visit of the flight MH370 between Kuala Lumpur and Beijing early last Saturday morning 8 March.
hawaii travel sites to visit In other developments, no trace of the debris spotted by a China surveillance satellite in the South China Sea on Sunday 9 March has been found on inspection of the area, which was near the intended flight path of the Boeing 777-200 which was carrying 239 people.
In a somewhat strange story, Malaysia s acting hawaii travel sites to visit transport minister (and defence minister) Hishammuddin Hussein is said in the current hour to have posted a photo of Shanghai on a social media site saying Shanghai, pray for us .
The Malaysia hawaii travel sites to visit Airlines 777 is equipped with the ACARS automated data transmission system, hawaii travel sites to visit which among other things transmits engine performance at regular intervals to centres maintained by the likes of Rolls-Royce, which made the engines on this particular version of the popular wide body twin jet.
According to earlier reports, two such ACARS transmissions were uploaded to Rolls-Royce via a satellite link by MH370 before it disappeared off the air traffic control radars hawaii travel sites to visit 42 minutes after taking off for the five hours 50 minutes flight to Beijing.
Today s regular media update, scheduled for 5 pm local time in Kuala Lumpur, could be interesting, if anyone gets to ask a sensible question, and gets an answer which can be heard over the pandemonium.
ACARS recieves and transmits autonomously once you re logged on. Boeing in Seattle knows about an engine failure about the same time as the Pilot. And what about CPDLC? Malaysian Airlines spokesman doesnt know what he s talking about.
Going back to the Sat photo surely the Chinese can keep looking at newer photos slowly until they see the possible debris again under they reach a closer date? Obviously clouds get in the way it all seems easy but I guess it is harder than I think it should be.
There have been lots of complaints about tardiness by Malaysian military reporting the possible turnback. But surely RR and/or Boeing had their data shortly after transmission, and certainly that same day would have been aware of the plane s disappearance. So, where have they been? Do they have confidentiality agreements with the airlines before releasing such info in the public domain?
And I presume without specific knowledge that by their very nature (transmission to satellites) that there has to be some geolocation information? (I guess this is what Ben is hinting at.) Why would this information not be released, or at least commented on, at the same time they are releasing the information on the engines continued operation?
One notable issue specifically out of the ACARS data is that in some of the messages hawaii travel sites to visit sent to Boeing and Rolls Royce have the Lat, Lon and Alt included as part of the message. I havn t seen data transmitted hawaii travel sites to visit across satellite, but have a lot of terrestrial ACARS and have mapped out a lot of MRQ s engine hawaii travel sites to visit messages.
I don t think that Boeing was an addressee as they have explicitly stated that Malaysian Airlines is not a subscriber to their Airplane Health monitoring service. Major airlines typically perform those functions in-house; the Boeing service is more typical for smaller or charter operators.
The R-R folks state that their engine health data packets are limited to 3K of data. No mention was made of which non-engine parameters are included. You d think that location would be largely irrelevant to trend monitoring (which is all these data points hawaii travel sites to visit are they just get distilled to points on a graph)
I ve been sitting back here for the past days reading your line of reporting and the clutter of main stream news, and I find myself coming hawaii travel sites to visit back here as my reference to the going ons of this mystery flight.
Surely receiver information from the satellites allows hawaii travel sites to visit positional information to be easily extracted? hawaii travel sites to visit ie. without anything in the transmission itself, exactly the way cell-phones can be located. It may not be designed for it, but I would be surprised hawaii travel sites to visit if the information (essentially signal strength from a bunch of satellites) doesn t exist.
This makes me so mad So many reports and most are said to be not true. The families must want to do.. Well to do I really don t know What a mess up. Flights need to be traced far better in the future. I doubt this plane will ever be found.
I would imagine that the reason the ACARS Data is not publicly available is because it is owned by the airline and the suppliers, i.e. Rolls and Boeing. It would be available for the investigation, but I doubt it would be made public as the data itself is 224 characters of mostly numbers which are itself a snapshot of the engine parameters at a certain time. Not particularly informative most of the time.
Confirmed Sceptic, hawaii travel sites to visit the location is only available a few messages, which when plotted, show they occur all over the place, they are not specific hawaii travel sites to visit to top of climb/descent, take off etc. The location is probably included hawaii travel sites to visit to add relevance to why the message was triggered.
Just in from the pressed, officials explicitly deny receiving additional ACARS messages after already announced 1:07 local time last sent at attaining cruise. So either this is data held only by RR for its own reasons, or the WSJ is full of shite.
This WSJ claim has been denied in the latest press conference. They stated the Boeing and RR representatives in Malaysia have told the, there were no ACARS transmissions after the one that occurred at 0107.
The quote in the WSJ article regarding the intention hawaii travel sites to visit of using it later for another purpose is interesting. Presumably that would involve landing the plane at a runway where you could refuel the plane, hide the plane (from satellite surveillance), perform hawaii travel sites to visit any maintenance/modifications (i.e. repainting) and then later (perhaps much later) take off again from. How many sites would be suitable within the 2200nm radius of the final contact point?
I agree Dan, that many passengers would revolt and someone would know. I feel it is just about 100% certain that for whatever reason the plane and everyone hawaii travel sites to visit on board is now on a sea bed right now and probably never found due to the poor technology used on these planes to trace them. Such a sad situation and for the Malaysians to use the word VANISHED well we are still at square ZERO.
Well the WSJ is a Murdoch publication so I never expected any better unless there was corroborative evidence. I had read that the author was a reputable aviation hawaii travel sites to visit author but I imagine his credibility has gone down a few notches since his story has been debunked by RR, Boeing and MH. (Unless we spool up all the conspiracy theories again just like is happening on another website).
Thank goodness for the sanity on this one. Perhaps the aircraft is at its last known position, although the apparent lack of at least some debris is odd, or we will never find it. I can t get a handle on it at all. So many confirmed reports, only to be denied later. Is this the world s biggest hawaii travel sites to visit cover up, or simply and more plausibly a tragic accident.
Did the aircraft log off before it disappeared? If it didn t log off and there was a sudden disappearance, the aircraft must be fairly close to where it disappeared because the ADSB data seems to have disappeared at the same time as the transponder.
There are so many theories around. It will be the best feeling if we can wake up tomorrow and the news will be that the plane has been located at an airfield some where. Any airfield capable of landing a 777 would of already been scanned via satelite in the range as per the total fuel onboard Ex Subang. if you were a hijacker and intending to make an immediate statement by harming the lives of the passengers, why would you turn the transponder off, in fact you would probably leave it on so to show the world proof. well they say anything is possible, and who knows, the various news reports may turn out to be right, hijacking the plane and landing at an airfield with the intention of using the airplane at a later time for some terrorist purpose. But seriously how would you hide it? 777/ 747 sized hangars are not something you see at military or remote airfields, cant see a bunch of hijackers pulling military style camo nets over a 70ft high 777 vertical stabilzer to hide it unless they were seriously into Ian fleming novels. All the mentions of the andaman sea , malacca straits etc, in Remote airfields like banda aceh you cant do a u turn at the end of the runway unless your in a bug smasher or up to a 737 or A320 and there is only one hangar that will hold a 737 and medan has no hangars yet. MH has a shocking record hawaii travel sites to visit not only with its own aircraft but also its customers aircraft, the list of incidents is as long as your arm, I dont know how much money MH has spent on buying back their reputation over the years but you could start a new LCC with the amount hawaii travel sites to visit they have spent doing so, if you knew the facts you wouldnt fly with them. many people know the real history of malaysian but dont speak about it as its a can of worms that no one wants to deal with. the 777 is a great airplane, still have my fingers crossed for them.
It was reported by a former NTSB investigator that in order to save expense, Malaysia Airlines only subscribed to the engine parameters portion of ACARS, and did not routinely hawaii travel sites to visit receive other aircraft telemetry. Seems unlikely Rolls Royce or Boeing would withhold data from Malaysia following an accident hawaii travel sites to visit because they didn t pay for it perhaps more likely the ACARS data was picked up by the US military through another agency.
One scenario hawaii travel sites to visit occurs to me, based on his observations and later
