World: We may never know why the Air France plane went down

  • The flight data recorders may be lost at sea forever. Noting that the crash happened in the middle of the ocean, investigators say it may be impossible to find. While the recorders give off a signal that lasts up to 30 days, they can’t find the signal because it’s floating underwater. France has sent a submersible to help find the signal. The depth of the Atlantic near where the wreckage was found is nearly 21,000 feet. source

World: The search for the missing Air France flight continues

  • They may have spotted some debris, but it’s too early to tell. It sounds like a total nightmare, but a giant plane falling into an ocean that dwarfs it makes for a crazy needle-in-haystack game. Fortunately, Brazilian air force craft have some leads in the form of debris 400 miles off the coast of the country. Sadly, the odds that they will find someone alive out of the the 228 passengers and crew are very low. The odds that a Portuguese Lost spin-off will happen in the wake of the crash are even lower. source
