Well they took all of the nuke warheads so taking a plane should not be too difficult. 🙂

Ooooof.

The obvious statement will be that it went into the deepest darkest part of the Indian Ocean…it will take years to recover (I mean plant plane parts in the ocean and pretend to recover them) and by then it will be old news and noone will care what the data recorders show.

They turn them off when they land at an airport, so as to not be confused when there’s 100 plans on the ground in a 2 mile radius on a radar map. Stupid, yes. They should be automatically disabled or only disable-able when below 500 ft altitude/below a certain airspeed etc.

Seems like it would make a lot more sense to have that transponder on/off controlled by ATC instead of each individual pilot.

They’re all agreeing that the plane was in the air hours after the transponder turned off and that it did make a major course change. Based on the way it followed GPS waypoints they’re quite certain an experienced pilot was at the controls too. So either it was a hijacker trained on that specific model planes flight systems (unlikely) or the pilot was involved. Probably why there are reports they’re searching the pilots home.

Or just use some sort of alternate always on tracking method…You still need radar for a transponder to work correctly.

There are enough internet capable satellites just have them pull GPS data and broadcast it back out on a regular basis.

Think lojack for a plane

</div>

the explanation that I heard for there not being a better tracking system is that it basically costs more than it is worth. An incident like this is extremely rare, so they haven’t been able to justify the costs of transmitting all of the data that currently resides in the data recorders on board.

i imagine this incident will probably start to change that.

I’d like to know what the search costs are for this right now. Wonder if they factor that into their little equation?
