Except that the reported location of the ping doesn’t gel with the calculated flight path based on the Inmarsat pings, and is hundreds of kilometers from the position of the final one.

Not saying that this couldn’t be the final resting place, but just restating that their data has been full of holes since the beginning. And now a ship sailing WAY outside any search area finds ‘pings’ after all the other searchers have been on a wild goose chase elsewhere.

I’m sure they’ll come up with a clever-sounding explanation after something is confirmed...

Malaysian officials admitted Saturday that the batteries on the black box of missing flight MH370 were expired and due to be replaced.

That's a moronic sentence, written in typical drive-by style.

The batteries were not due to be replaced until June, and I'm sure the replacement schedule doesn't wait until the very end.

What a joke...The latest is that they got pings for 10 minutes. Then....after a couple of miles, they got pings for 90 seconds.

Unfortunately, none of the pings were recorded.

Are they complete idiots?

Or just a bunch of rotten liars.

Then there is this..

On Friday, Dukane Seacom Inc president Anish Patel told CNN that the recorders were scheduled for battery replacements in 2012, but they were never returned for the overhaul.

so, it was due in 2012 and not done by Dukane.. Dud someone do it? or where they way past due?

With all of the screw ups reported so far, it has to be one big conspiracy to do something bad.

Not intending to disrespect your brother in any way whatsoever or to judge his piloting skills; I am sure they are superlative.

But that doesn't make him an Oceanographer, an expert on ocean currents.

So, based on two different stories ( 2 boats have heard the ping and the pings are only good out to about 2 miles) there are two ships within 2 miles of the black boxes.

Should be pretty simple to zero in on where the ping is coming from.

Get a 3rd boat so you can triangulate, and there it is.

Yeah, my umbrage expressed in #63 is not justified, given Patel's statement (I should have RTFA, LOL).

However, if the batteries have gone unreplaced for years, then we shouldn't be hearing anything, should we?

I’m with you on that ... Pakistan or Iran theory one ... Diego Garcia theory two ... that second one is a nauseating possibility since it would have to be a false flag operation ... I’ve never been one for conspiracy theories, but I would put nothing out of the realm of possibility when it comes to either Obongo or the CIA!
