Air France A330 lost...

<< < (2/2)

EHM-1001 Robert:
No, that it is still under construction. Airbus recently having problems with building quickly and effectively the interior of the A380. And combined it with recession they highly decreased the production rate, which affects also the releasing of the first Air France copy... But I am sure it will be very reliable and it will get the most support of any airlines in the World.

EHM-2155 Mariano:
Just heared from the news that the debris found off the coast of somewhere weren't from the plane...
Other than saying that it's a pity... it begs the question, what are them from then?

EHM-1001 Robert:
Yes, it is a pity. 230 tons of structure cannot sink into the ocean without signs: papers, wood, plastics, baggages, clothes... many of these should have been found ! This is not the shooting of another LOST episode. I think they simply have NO CLUE where could be the plane. But after a week, those many debrises will be already at Dakar or Miami, or at Antarctica... I think they will not find the recorders not because of the depth, but because of the bad location. If they want to really find it at all :s

EHM-1465 Dominic:
It's still early days yet for an investigation of this type and the conditions are difficult out in open ocean - once more resources get out there, like a French nuclear sub that is setting off, they should have a better chance of narrowing down the search area and locating the signal from the locator beacons on the two flight recorders... Give it another week and there ought to be much more precise information, I hope.
