"The French have satellites ?"

Yes, but they only fly in reverse.

I would love to read about it in Wikipedia, in the article on highlights of the 21st Century.

it could be very well the airplane debris but you know, I don’t believe most of the media anymore for as far as I know, this could all be an orchestrated ploy to hide the real airplane “incident”...like it being flown to Pakistan or Iran....

Perhaps I’m wrong, but aren’t airplane freight pallets made of aluminum? To conserve weight?

Yeah, but they said the word ‘satellite’! It just HAS to be true! Besides, we know no one an post anything on the Internet that isn’t true. That, and several posters on FR are convinced the plane is in Paki because someone on TV said so and they said the DoD said it.

Aircraft cargo pallets are made of aluminum, and weigh about 270 pounds.

I have it on very good authority that the plane was not flown to Pakistan. It was flown to a secret NSA facility in Nevada where it is being turned into the centerpiece of a fun park for NSA employees. The passengers are being used as slave laborers to run the park.

Mike Barton, chief of the Australian Maritime Safety Authority’s rescue coordination
center, told reporters in Canberra, Australia, that the wooden pallet, which was spotted
Saturday, was surrounded by several other objects, including what appeared to be
strapping belts of different colors......

“We went to some of the expert airlines and the use of wooden pallets is quite common
in the industry,” Barton said. “They’re usually packed into another container, which is
loaded in the belly of the aircraft. ... It’s a possible lead, but we will need to be
very certain that this is a pallet because pallets are used in the shipping industry as well.”.....

End snips

The new information given to Malaysia’s government and forwarded to searchers in Australia shows “potential objects” in the same part of the ocean where satellite images previously released by Australia and China showed objects that could be debris from the plane,

By now there must be enough military ships arriving in that area to get alongside the debris for an ID or better yet, weather permitting, pull it aboard.
We should have the best info within a few days.
Ships can stay on scene 24 hrs /day, planes can't.- Tom

“Perhaps I’m wrong, but aren’t airplane freight pallets made of aluminum? To conserve weight?”

No, actually you are right on the money. The 777 uses a system of metal containers. All cargo goes into the containers. No wooden pallets are used. They would not fit and if you tried to use them it would damage the plane. Mr. GG2 used to build planes at Boeing in WA. He says zero chance wooden pallets used on that plane.

This is all a campaign of disinforation to stall for time til the powers that be figure out how to try to get that plane back from whoever took it. Its likely in Pakistan or Iran.

PS: Isn’t it odd that the media like CNN or Fox cannot simply get an engineer from Boeing to quickly confirm that the 777 does not use wooden pallets? Funny huh? Instead they just keep repeating this giberish.

“zero chance” in a foreign country? I wouldn’t bet on that...what passes for reasonable in one country, isn’t in another...

The captain flew it to the back 40, performed a belly landing and sank it mostly intact. The passengers were already dead and buckled in from the 45k’ climb that starved them of oxygen when the packs were turned off. They won’t find wreckage on the surface.

OR

Its in a hangar somewhere
