MH370 missing plane: 'black box pings' tracked to same point as final 'half-handshake'

Friday 23 February 2018

The final unexplained signal emitted by the missing Malaysia Airlines plane was tracked to the same point in the Indian Ocean at which authorities believe they have found the aircraft, it can be revealed.

It is thought that this final "half-handshake" – or satellite contact – could have been the moment at which the plane ran out of fuel and plunged into the Indian Ocean.

As authorities said they were "very close" to finding the plane after detecting more than two hours of underwater signals, The Telegraph learnt that the site coincides with analysis from two weeks ago, which estimated where the final contact occurred.

I thought the photo was from 2014, but the article at the top said today's date :o

Sorry if it was old news :oops:

It makes one wonder why The Telegraph is dragging up old news. I didn't see any new information in the article. It certainly wasn't your fault for posting it Mr Quatro, as the date line at the top made it seem like it was new information. What raised my suspicions was when they talked about signals from the black boxes which usually only last about 120 days, not 4 years.

What made me a little suspicious is this

What I have learned about those black boxes and the signal it send. It should be good for about 30 days or so(had to look it up to fresh up my memory)

I can see I was wrong the signal is good for 120 days.(HW3 Post above)

I was going from my faulty memory Markus, and you are right, 30 days is the normal time span.:Kaleun_Salute:
