"And WHY would we have had a sub within 1000 miles of this area?"

Strategery (or maybe tactics).

3.2.1
A
n Underwater Location Beacon (ULB) fitted to an aircraft flight recorder
is triggered by immersion in water. It will emit an ultrasonic pulse of 10
milliseconds, at 37.5 kHz and at one-second intervals. The present ICAO
requirement is for ULBs (“pingers”) to transmit for at least 30 days. They have a
nominal audible range of 2 to 5 km, depending on parameters such as depth,
water temperature and sea conditions.

Not only that, weather satellites trained on the area watching cyclones form would catch the splashdown.

What if there was no splashdown? I’m still convinced that plane was hijacked and landed. The only reason it hasn’t been used it because now they know the second they start those engines up again, we’ve got them.

"Suspected pulse signal picked up by Haixun 01 has not been identified yet," the China Maritime Search and Rescue Center said on a verified microblog.

So they go to the media and make a big deal out of a non-identified ping. Why not identify it first.

Enough with the regular pings....

When I left basic training at Lackland, and arrived at Keesler, I was called a "ping." Do I qualify? :-)

LOL, ok, I did not know that, but I was told we were called pings, because that was the sound that our new hair made as it grew out of our shaved heads. I could understand that.

The ship first detected a signal Friday but couldn’t record it because the signal stopped abruptly, a Shanghai-based Communist Party newspaper said. The signal detected Saturday, the Jiefang Daily said, occurred at 3:57 p.m. Beijing time (3:57 a.m. ET) and lasted about a minute and a half. It was not clear whether the signal had anything to do with the missing plane.

I saw this post earlier but was busy.

I don't see anyone pointing out the reality that where they heard this ping is WAY outside the positions where they plotted the "pings", as presented by both the Malay government & the NTSB, particularly the 8:11 ping.

Still fishy all-around.

Never heard of the Exmouth Triangle...I guess anything is possible

The point was that surely where the AF crashed there were plenty of subs and other craft, more than open Indian Ocean. More likely to “hear” things than this current situation.

Why would they be able to detect something so much smaller than atmospheric clouds forming?

Recorder pings are different from what you are referring to.

SATS have false RGB recon: it separates upper moisture cover from sea-surface moisture, so you can watch what’s happening on the water vs. the upper atmosphere. A crash would show a kerplunk that looks totally different from moisture convection. It would look like a small meteor hit.

Either I wasn’t clear or you’re misreading me:

The Recorder pings, if that’s what they really detected (the Chinese), based on the coordinates provided, are hundreds of kilometers from the plotted location of the last Inmarsat ping at 8:11 on ‘the day-of’...

I was being critical of the data provided to-date, if color charts & graphics suffice as ‘data’...assuming, of course, that the location turns out to be the planes resting spot.

So they’ll either come up with a clever explanation for the difference (another graphic) or...who knows...maybe aliens moved the damned plane. /s
