Missing Plane Search : Where are the Drones?

Today, I was watching the Australian TV and very proudly it announced that British Nuclear Submarine has arrived in search of the missing plane.

This is after hundred of sorties by planes from Aussies, Chinese, Japanese etc etc.
The ex Air Chief Marshal of Australia now the person in charge of search declares it would take far much longer then expected.

I am only wondering, does a plane search need a nuclear submarine or it is a disguise to move assets into the Indian Ocean and then quietly park it in Philippines to check the Chinese overtures.

And, by the way, where are all the drones? If such a huge ocean needs to be mapped, then , what you need is say, 10 to 20 drones, which traverse the quadrants and complete the scan in say a week for most of the ocean. Though technically, the satellite is already a good source to spot anything unusual. I wonder, what are these mega planes doing there?

Unless, there are things, which I am not aware, the possibility of the plane in that part of the Ocean is most doubtful.

Assuming for a minute, it is there, still the best option is to send a whale hunting for the plane. All, it needs a whale with monitoring sensors. It will find its way to the plane in the shortest possible time. Now that the Aussies have saved the whales from Japanese hunting with International ruling, the whales will be more listening to them. All it takes is around 10 to 15 whales and put the GPS sensors on it ( if wireless cameras not possible ) and these are set free in various areas of the ocean. By instinct, the whales move to areas of human remains or large objects or similar.  The GPS, then indicates the long stay at one position of the whale and gives a good marking of possible debris.

These planes and submarines job is now over. They have done , whatever they had to do. Though the first mistake comes from Inmarsat and the One of its Kind Doppler studies made by this super company in UK. Let nature do its own part.

The only possible way of the plane reaching somewhere close to Perth is if every one on the plane was dead and the plane was on auto pilot. Otherwise, there is no way, the plane would have flown to the searched area.

To my mind, the hunch says, the plane is somewhere close to Vietnam. On the way to China, that is the only place, where it could have moved after say the power failure switched off the communications and perhaps all the systems started failing one after another and pilot could not manage the recovery of the situation. Almost same as Air France case.

Missing Malaysian Plane : Messy Announcements! Does not look in Sea.

Todays is perhaps , day 10, when first the debris was identified in the South Indian Ocean.
Thanks to the Inmarsat pings and doppler calculations. It does seem the whole thing is wrong.

After identifying so many objects of various lengths, various widths, colors and then ships and planes reaching the spot and nothing worthwhile is found. No updates are announced on the wrong objects found and then the search is shifted to another location 1000 kms away. Here the ships end up catching sea junk and jelly fish.

The whole premises of search is based on some radar clue that the plane turned back and then the Inmarsat calculations. If the Plane actually did not turn back, then the Inmarsat calculations go totally wrong.

Simple common sense, if pilot wanted to crash the plane, he will not fly all the way to middle of nowhere to crash. And surely not the spot, where the plane debris is being currently found.

The missing plane has to be somewhere enroute to China. Rest is all speculation.

It is also becoming clear that this is a Plane failure and not a Pilot error. 

The Malaysian Govt, Australian Govt all have messed up in announcing that the plane has crashed in the sea based on mathematical calculations without one small piece of physical evidence in hand. Now they are struggling with the sea junk . Let us hold on and see, if they will have egg on their faces.

Each day, they come up, This this this saw new objects and second day , that that that saw new objects and nothing is found at all.

The simplest way is to send a ship on the same flight path, which the plane was to take and look for the pings from the black box.

As for the debris, I saw some orange and red color objects in the river near Bandung. But that does not mean, the plane came and crashed in the river here. Let them stop all this nonsense and use proper common sense.

The first thing that the airlines should allow with immediate effect is the use of wifi in the plane, so that each pax is armed with instant messaging in case of emergency.
