Missing 777

[CJ]

So here's a thought, it was floating a few days ago which means it didn't blow up on impact. Why arent liferafts or anything else floating around it, you better believe I'd be getting out of it as soon as it hit the water. Seems it's in relatively intact condition

The witness said it went down in a ball of flames.

Would love to see that pic without the giant red circle covering everything up.. But my gut tells me that looks like a boat.

I agree.

I explained that the plane is a Pepsi can and what happens when you slam a Pepsi can against your forehead? It crumples.

You get that amped up drinking Pepsi?

I get that mad every time some shitty establishment serves that rather than Coke, too.

that bitch is floating?

Looks underwater to me. Maybe the sea is shallow there?

Looks like a plane to me. Also looks eerie as hell, just knowing there are >200 bodies inside of it.

Pretty sure that's out in the middle of the Chinese sea, and I would imagine if it were that shallow, there would be other visible features in the water.. But who knows

Fun fact: early aircraft were manufactured by ship builders. Water lines are still used to reference the aircraft's z-axis.

From the get go they have said the South China Sea is shallow, which made it even more puzzling as to not being able to see any wreckage.

Even the dude who found it says its probably a ship

Interesting. Shallow could be ~400' in oceanic terms though.

"While I observed the burning plane"

"While I observed the burning plane"

"...until the flames went out (still at high altitude)"

[bcoop]

"While I observed the burning plane"

Read the whole sentence.


EDIT: Tony beat me to it.

I wonder how far you can see down though, if the water is clear, and the satellite is badass enough. Probably not 400', but still...

It sure looks like a plane to me, other than the fact that the front end doesn't look very damaged. But I don't really know shit.
