This location (photo from Sunday) is “down current” from where the Oil Platform worker reported on Saturday seeing something come down. South China sea has some strong currents.
By the way, this looks like it’s off the planned flight path.

Most nations are not eager to advertise their satellite reconnaissance cababilites, so that’s probably why China waited. It might have something to do with protecting the location of their satellite, if it’s a classified bird. So they waited..

Sheppard showing your pictures now.

If this is the crash site, the images were taken on Sunday, it is now Wednesday, how come they havent located these large debris fieldsThat is actually pretty far off the projected flight path. Take google earth mark out an area the search size and try to find an object the size of an airplane.

Spy satellites are pretty sophisticated. If China’s found the wreckage, it’s an intelligence coup for them. Like others here have said, our Sats are busy monitoring car movements of Tea Party members.
To: CivilWarBrewing
How far would the currents have moved the debris from the original crash site? The satellite picture is more or less where the oil rig guy saw the flash of light counting for the currents.
To: Starstruck
That guy on CNN seems to suggest he doesn’t think its the plane..could be..if this is the plane I hope it gives the families peace, they have been going through an unimaginable hell for 6 days now, they deserve to know what happened to their loved ones

probably found but not analized until today.
There are certain words in the English language where it is a good idea to double check spelling.
To: CivilWarBrewing
With so many ships and aircraft supposedly looking in the area, could the satellite be seeing search equipment?
To: CivilWarBrewing
..and you can bet that China has blurred their released images to disguise the resolution capability of their spy satellites. Hehehe.

Those images are supposedly from the time of the aircraft’s flight.

Probably.
Fictional (?) scenario:
China's State Administration for Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense announced that they have dispatched USS submarine to investigate under-sea wreckage.
