thanks bud .... ... I understand about being at high altitude no signal as I have been up in the mountains where it was above cell coverage ... but what about after the "7 hours" the plane was in the air?

IF and thats one of the big questions IF the plan landed ... why wouldnt phones be able to be pinged for location?
I am guessing if they were under the sea then they wouldnt be able to get signals?

just havent heard much of this angle

i thought i read somewhere that the relatives were calling their missing family and that they were ringing for a short while(wish i could remember where i heard or read that)......whether they could have tracked them based on the cell signal,i have no idea.....maybe the nsa could have tracked the phones of the americans on board if they`d been involved earlier on?...


i have a basic tracfone so i`m not real phone savvy....

I heard the same about 3 days after the plane went missing. I also heard that 17 of the people that called signed sworn affidavits that the cell phones were answered and then went dead. Haven't heard anymore about this though.

On the course!
McInerney said that most of the world?s sensors are in that region, and that between Rolls-Royce, Boeing and the U.S. government, officials know a lot more than has come out.


He got that from me.....

Like Joshnaudi and Gardenweasel, I think this is about as fascinating as it gets.

I think we're going to be talking about this for the rest of our lives, whether we figure out what happened or not.
