As Malaysia, China and Australia prepare for talks in Canberra on the next phase of the MH370 search the GeoResonance tip off that it may have found it in the Bay of Bengal has lead to nothing.

Then again, this is also true of the much more soundly based Australia led search of likely impact zones in the Indian Ocean around 1600 kms west to north west of Perth.

Malaysia’s acting Transport Minister and Minister of Defence Hishammuddin Hussein, who will be at the Canberra talks which officially begin tomorrow, has tweeted that vessels from the Bangladeshi Navy have found nothing.

It needs to be said at the outset that the GeoResonance press campaign, which also promoted its capabilities to find missing sunken H-bombs in unquestioning media outlets, raised some interesting implications.

One would be that the Inmarsat satellite traces of the Malaysia Airlines 777, which vanished from normal ATC radars on 8 March, with 239 people on board, were variously fictitious or hopelessly misinterpreted, since they showed that MH370 was airborne for seven hours 38 minutes and eventually flew south into the vastness of the Indian Ocean.

To have come down where GeoResonance claimed to have found mineral traces that might have come from MH370, it either crashed much sooner than that interval, or circled around for hours in what is a fairly busy area for air traffic.

Which in turn might have meant that the unique identifiers for each engine which were transmitting standby signals from the jet to the Inmarsat satellite parked over the east Indian Ocean, in case data from them was to be sent to the maker Rolls-Royce, all had to be faked, or spoofed, or whatever.

A private Australian company that believes it may have found the wreckage of MH370 has slammed official investigators for not taking its claims seriously. See post MH370 – Found In the Bay of Bengal.

GeoResonance’s technology works by analysing electromagnetic fields captured by airborne multispectral images.

The technology was created to search for nuclear, biological and chemical weaponry under the ocean or beneath the earth in bunkers, Mr Pope said.

GeoResonance began its search four days after the plane went missing and sent officials initial findings on March 31, before following up with a full report on April 15.

Mr Pope said he did not want to go public with the information at first but his information was disregarded.

“The company is not declaring this is MH370, however it should be investigated,” GeoResonance said in a statement.

The company reportedly has accredited representatives from the US National Transportation Safety Board, Britain’s Air Accidents Investigation Branch and China’s Aircraft Accident Investigation Department, among other agencies.

But the Joint Agency Coordination Centre, which is coordinating the multinational search for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane, has dismissed GeoResonance’s claims.

“The Australian-led search is relying on information from satellite and other data to determine the missing aircraft’s location,” the JACC said in a statement.

“The location specified by the GeoResonance report is not within the search arc derived from this data. The joint international team is satisfied that the final resting place of the missing aircraft is in the southerly portion of the search arc.”

I find that this is a very narrow-minded view, considering that no physical sign or evidence that MH370’s final resting place is actually in the search area as designated by the JACC.

No peice of information, no shred of evidence, however small or unlikely should be ignored in the search for the truth with respect of the outcome of Flight MH370. This decision demonstrates a very narrow view on the part of the JACC and malaysian authoriies!

MH370 – Found in the Bay of Bengal?

GeoResonance says its own research has identified several elements consistent with material from a plane – and they weren’t there before the disappearance.

A marine exploration company based in Australia claims it may have located the wreckage of Malaysia Airlines flight MH 370 – 3,000 miles away from where authorities have been looking.

The aircraft, carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew, left Kuala Lumpur International Airport at 12.41am on March 8 and disappeared from radar screens about an hour later, while over the South China Sea. It was due to have arrived in Beijing at 6.30am on the same day.

A multinational search was mounted for the plane and analysis by the UK Air Accidents Investigation Branch concluded that Flight MH370’s last position was in the middle of the Indian Ocean, west of Perth, Australia – an outcome later backed by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

However, According to Australian news Channel 7 News, the Adelaide-based company GeoResonance says its own private research has identified elements on the ocean floor in the Bay of Bengal consistent with material from a plane.

GeoResonance’s search covered 2million sq km of the possible crash zone, using images obtained from satellites and aircraft.

Scientists focused their efforts north of MH370’s last known location, using more than 20 technologies to analyse the data including a nuclear reactor.

According to company spokesperson David Pope, “The technology that we use was originally designed to find nuclear warheads, submarines. Our team in the Ukraine decided we should try and help.”

GeoResonance experts compared their findings with images taken on March 5, three days before MH370 was reported missing – and they did not find what they had detected at that spot.

“The wreckage wasn’t there prior to the disappearance of MH370.

“We’re not trying to say that it definitely is MH370 – however, it is a lead we feel should be followed up,” said Pope.
