Estrada, whose trip on the sub was paid for by sponsors, says it was originally scheduled for July 2021, but pushed back by a year due to unspecified ‘difficulties’ with the Titan.
Estrada spoke after CBS Sunday Morning reporter David Pogue revealed Monday his troublesome experience on the Titan - which saw it suffer yet more communications issues.
The difficulties caused the submarine to be reported missing for two and a half hours - a similar amount of time to the blackout suffered during Estrada’s expedition.
And German adventurer Arthur Loibl said that his August 2021 trip to the Titanic on Titan was a ‘suicide mission’ after it suffered a host of electrical problems, with parts even falling off the doomed sub.
