(CNN) -- The four acoustic pings at the center of the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 for the past seven weeks are no longer believed to have come from the plane's black boxes, a U.S. Navy official told CNN.
The acknowledgment came Wednesday as searchers wrapped up the first phase of their effort, having scanned 329 square miles of southern Indian Ocean floor without finding any wreckage from the Boeing 777-200.

What kind of cargo????
I think you’re probably right.
“It hurts...it hurts. I’m dying...I’m dying”. TT’s last words, (that were captured by a tape recorder that he had set up previously for the ‘occasion’), as he fired a round into his own little self to end it all. Smiles everyone, smiles!!
Those pings were the only thing holding the searchers to those waters off of Australia there.
The plane could just as easily entered the waters 700 miles north of where they are searching given that the pings are now worthless.
If I’m a pilot not bent on suicide but intent on survival I would ditch it just south of Java, take a boat to shore and be sipping My Thais on a Java beach watching the fruitless search for the evidence of my perfect crime.
Can you spell R-E-D - H-E-R-R-I-N-G?
Maybe it landed in Kume Japan.
Just give me a ping, Vasili. One ping only, please.
I’m guessing Pakistan too...
I'm guessing the plane was taken to be used in a terrorist plot against the United States or Israel... used in such a way that 'the deed' can't be traced back to a sovereign state.
>> I know thats not as fun and dramatic as a terrorist hijacking plot, but whatever.
Ruling out a possibility for reasons of intrigue is not a good reason to rule out the possibility.
