That explains the Asian families reaction yesterday at the press briefing.
This is Australia we’re dealing with here Julio
Took 2 years to find the black box form the Air France 447… 
That must have been his other son he was talking about.
On a somewhat related note I have no doubt that Martin O’Neill is thoroughly enjoying working out what exactly happened to the flight. Throw in a murder on the plane and he’d be in his element.
Is he in to plane crashes too? I knew he liked a good murder mystery alright.
With the fake Italian passport connection, I’d say that cunt who reffed the Juve game all those years ago is his number one suspect in the whole episode.
Who are you dealing with in Australia Mac?
[QUOTE=“Rocko, post: 919069, member: 1”]What’s an orion? Plane or boat?
This does all seem a bit premature unless they’re withholding information. A 25m object in the middle of nowhere so that must be the plane.[/QUOTE]
FFS, I thought all you natives of the Velvet Strand were aviation experts?
RAAF - Republic of Australia Air Force.
It seems clear now there isn’t a fiddlers fuck in hell of finding this aircraft. The media might bang on about it for a while, but probably more decisive will be the nations involved in the S&R one by one taking themselves out of the effort and redeploying their valuable and costly assets. It will probably be eventually found by a Chinese submarine after years of diplomatic oppobrium between Beijing and Kuala Lumpar.
Or a trawler.
Which is really sad. I had hoped for a few days that there might actually be some good news on this, and that it would be parked up in Kazakhstan or somewhere. Wishful thinking in the extreme it looks like now.
‘Republic of Australia’ :rolleyes:
We’re civil aviation people.
The stupid Aussies haven’t been able to locate the “wreckage” they spotted yet. Clowns.
Probably too busy sitting around in orange jumpsuits laying into stubbies of VB.
Anybody remember Tony Bullimore? I’d imagine this piece of debris is just the upturned hull of the round the world yachtsman’s boat that the Aussies forgot to salvage after they rescued him 17 years ago. Although it could also have been the corpse of one of the great white sharks they killed floating in the water.
They are reacting to it here like it’s d-day and the “mates” have saved the day. It’s completely fucking bizarre. I know there is fuck all happening here, but surely they have better things to do. The papers are blackened with ages of a Piece of wood in the ocean.
They also have got very upset about the yanks getting their geography all wrong and planting Perth in Tasmania on a map.
