hahaha...why are u baffled???I thought that they have recovered some of the debris or gotten photo evidence that the debris are from mh370. I was greatly surprised that Najib has substantiated his claim that the plane is in Indian Ocean with such a statement - "new satellite analysis .... the flight mh370 .... was LAST SEEN in the middle of the Indian Ocean...."
I am baffled by the meaning of "was last seen" - by who or by what means. The statement appeared weird. Can't he wait for tomorrow when the debris can be recovered? His man can brief and update the relatives in private first but he need not make the statement so soon.
all the evidences from various sources pointed to plane in the southern Indian Ocean.....he has also seen the new satellite analysis from the pings which must have provided the final confirmation...
I have said all along that experts should be able to narrow down the final position of the plane based on the pings received by Immarsat...and now this was finally done. the only surprise was that it took them so long...
For those who have never been involved in SAR operations, u can never appreciate the difficulties faced on the ground....
let me give u my personal experience.....way back in the seventies, when I was onboard a RSN patrol craft taking part in EX Starfish involving FPDA (UK, Aust , Malaysian, NZ) navies in the South China Sea.....
there was a simulated bombing run by one of the British planes......the plane just went straight down and crashed.......u see it a distance away and there were many warships around......
however, it took more than a week to locate and retrieve most of the parts of the plane even when u can see it going down.
