1. Please keep posting.
2. I realize you're an expert on flying planes and not recovering them, but it seems like just a huge longshot at this point anything will be recovered. Agreed?
To the extent that new information has been revealed/discovered (flew for 8 hours, altitude changes, satellite reception of signals indicating some kind of path), all it really seems to have done is increase the potential radius from something like "ehh, somewhere in the South China Sea between Malaysia and Vietnam" to a huge amount of the Earth, from like the middle of Asia to the southern Indian Ocean.
If it's on land somewhere, OK, but I don't see how you can practically search the ocean for this thing now.
I feel like 'forever an unsolved mystery' has to be the big favorite now unless terrorists stake a claim, something is discovered about the crew, etc.
