They will never find this one.

They are already saying it is likely to be at the bottom of the sea and expanding the search areas, bringing in more help...this is the same story as last time and the ending will be the same as well.

One of the most pressing questions for searchers and investigators now is why signals haven’t been detected from multiple emergency beacons on the Airbus A320. The beacons, known as emergency locator transmitters, or ELTs, are made to emit signals to satellites upon crashing and last about 30 days.

Like the MH370, this will slowly fade from the news until it happens again.

They’ll find this one, soon enough.

ELT’s are made for land crashes, ULB’s for water crashes. ULB’s are less routine to find. Their beacons are good for 30 days, at least.

Once they define the search area and cover it thoroughly, they’ll find the crash site. The water in the search area is very shallow, with the “bottom of the sea” averaging 130 feet. This makes the search much easier, compared to AF447 (found after all the beacons were exhausted, with sidescan sonar, at 13,000 feet).

As for the conspiracy theories, I don’t subscribe to any of them (and there are many). I’m not saying you do or don’t, I’m just stating my view. Nor do I believe in “chemtrails”, another bogus conspiracy theory.
