    Something to keep in mind: Air France Flight 447 went down in the Atlantic ocean in 2009. The relative location was known and it took 5 days to find bodies and debris. It took another 2 years to find the black box. It could be some time before anyone knows anything about this flight.

    I wonder how long the MSM can keep up with this cycle of experts, WE FOUND DEBRIS, LOL NOPE, oh the families and THEORYCRAFT!

    Given where this plane is said to have sank into the ocean, it probably will be years before subs find the wreckage and still more time to analyze the data recorders if they find it at all.

    DEBRIS!

    Nope.

    WRECKAGE!

    Nope.

    RADAR!

    Nope.

    DEBRIS!

    Nope.

    Just shut up till you find something. Geez. News these days is so retarded. Could you imagine if Vietnam had been reported this way?

    "Nancy, we're getting reports now saying that a lone man is standing in Tienanman Square. There are tanks rolling in. We're not sure what tanks they are right now but stay tuned as this story develops.

    Hours later.

    "Nancy, we're getting reports now from eyewitnesses in Vietnam that are saying they saw a Red Star... I repeat a Red Star on the side of the tanks. We are unsure if this is related to the Soviet Union or to China as both nations are known to use Red Stars on military vehicles. We now turn to our expert, who fought in the Battle of Fuckface Creek, Jim Bottleneck. Jim?

    Hours later.

    "Shocking development in Vietnam as only hours ago the tanks continued to roll down Tienanman Square and reports of Soviet troops on the ground assisting the Vietnamese are rolling in but as of now are unconfirmed.

    Ugh.

    It's just hilarious to see someone rail on the media fostering confusion while simultaneously confusing (as best I can tell) the Vietnam War with a crushed protest in China that occurred 14 years later.

    Though my eyes feel like they are about to fall out of my head from searching it, nice to get a fresh satellite map to search that is actually recent. Ever since I started the challenge, its been old ass images. Previously to this map, all of the others have been dated late compared to the date that I begin to search on it.

    I posted earlier, confusion as to why the Tomnod crowd source, satellite map database had no images pulled from the current search zone off the coast of Perth, Australia but they added one yesterday. Got a map dated for the 25th of March and it appears to be littered with an insane amount of debris just like the one[s] they recently said they received in Australia.

    There is so much debris that I did not believe it at first. I cross referenced the photos of the current debris map that the news is speaking of with the huge amounts of debris and it is similar as far as the size and shape as well as the clouds. After looking at over 6500 map grid squares since starting this challenge, it is pretty easy to decipher debris X.o but it still was shocking to see so much stuff at one time on one map because there just has not been much up until this map.

    My usual average of sighting objects was a handful at best per map but I have found over 500 or so from just a small section, not 1/4th of the map is done and that is while not even marking every object of debris because the marker does not allow them to be placed too close together. The maps are huge so hopefully other people are also sourcing it asap so they can make use of it in the search.

    Yeah, I was totally rocking the "media is so confused they fucked up the country". You could have been the hero, but you lived long enough to become the villain.

    I'm starting an early morning drinking game. Turn on CNN when I wake-up and if they're talking about the Malaysian flight, pour a glass of jack to start the day off.

    Ugh, so sad that the wormhole rejected those airplane parts but still transported the humans, to where we do not know.

    Airplane parts are generally indigestible.

    There are many reasons that they unable to provide image as soon as possible.

    1. They have other ongoing schedule mission on the satellite, unable to schedule the satellite to take the image
    2. Power maintanence, this is the most important thing for satellite
    3. Pre-post processing the image, i believe most image has been added artificial noise before release
