Would it be safe to assume that we have had our ears on in that locale?
The P3’s and P8 that went out there the first day dropped a bunch. Some “ace” AP reporter made a big splash by saying the crew of the P8 said they had something from the pings but later that assertion was rained on heavily as he just heard it wrong. They were hoping they would get something, not that they did.
Ironically, we have not heard from the “ace” reporter again as I’m sure they made sure his ticket to ride was no longer valid.
