What the hell is wrong with you people? A cover up? The plane went down in 13,000 feet of water. At that depth and considering the ridges and trenches, as well as the fact that they have absolutely no clue where it went down renders many modern technologies useless until they find a better starting point. If the plane sank in a few large pieces, at that depth the thing could have drifted for miles, carried by underwater currents to who knows where. Not only that but the seabed formation in that area makes sonar detection extremely difficult. If the thing broke up at high altitude, pieces could be have landed hundreds of miles apart in any given direction before either drifting farther away or sinking to the depths. Hell, all they have is a last known coordinate to work with. Besides that, they also know it had severe electrical problems. If they lost positioning and were turned in any direction by the ever changing storm, who knows where the hell that thing could have gone down at...maybe 500 miles north or south of the search area. You have it here folks, retardation at its finest & brought to you here only on SVTP!
