I believe Japan also deployed their new P-1 over there. Great aircraft that is. There was a write up in a recent Australian Aviation edition about the actual aircraft. Will try to find it for you. I believe they had already left before this photo was taken.

And the other five or six corporate aircraft that were involved at one time or another. I guess thats the kiwi contingent in the front row.

Team world rescue, I sure if they weren't giving the run around in the beginning they may have found it .

I still maintain they have always been the wrong place Ian ..... but thats where they told to go . What about this new stuff from that oz company .... no one wants to know about it.
These people aren't saying it is the aircraft , but it must be worth a look ( under water) at least . A surface search has been done , but of course nothing was found .

I think it time to develop a module - specific these days to have aircraft with position device that uses this Radar Tracker on most peoples PCs - but engineering wise have it made to break away from the ocean impacted aircraft - would save a hell of a lotta time , energy and moneys - each unit is isolated from aircraft systems and a required addon to the hull - each unit will have a longer battery run and for the ocean search required to have a automatic drag chain keeping location far better than areas people have been trying to search .

Extreme circumstance is now needed, strange after 9/11 for the few years after, if you - as early as it was you had to pay huge dollars to track aircraft , the millions of people who do it today for fun may have picked up the anomaly, and the with the network would have questioned it .

All the security means damn diddly swat if the driver (for the kiddies) looses his bean chair, maybe they should allow aviation enthusiast in the cockpit to monitor the flight crew .. damn funny how .. well ya damned if ya do and ya damned if you don't !
