Taken from Google Earth, the object appears to be shaped like a large passenger plane - sparking a wild theory it could be the missing jet itself. "I've got a feeling it could be it. It's the shape of it. If you look at it from above. I know it looks quite small but the ridges and mounds make me think it could be it.

bluesofa Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Wasn't there another "Brit amateur sleuth" who last week claimed he'd realised the plane was in the heart of the Cambodian jungle, and was in the process of locating it there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCauto Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Oh God, it just gets worse. After the ridiculous claim of the plane in the Cambodian jungle, we now have a guy looking at a DEM and saying "I think it's the plane!" DEMs, or Digital Elevation Models, are used in maps to show terrain. On land, most use the Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission data which has a resolution of 30m. In the ocean, they don't have satellites that penetrate deeply, so instead of showing water (boring) they show a representation of the ocean floor from bathymetric maps. These are very low resolution and prepared a long time ago. There's no way they've been updated, or that they would have the resolution sufficient to show a plane if one were there. And that assumes the plane somehow landed in the ocean without breaking up. This is even dumber than the last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shackleton Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 This is starting to get confusing the daily express had a world first exclusive that the plane was in the Cambodian jungle with the two Brit brothers hacking their way through the jungle to locate the missing aircraft now the Sun Tabloid is claiming its in the Andaman sea someone needs to let the two Brits in the Cambodian jungle know they now need diving gear and relocate plus let the Daily Express know as they need to have a World exclusive First on this ?

Kerryd Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Sheesh - I've got better pics of planes in places they ain't supposed to be ! (Well, one better pic at least.) Somewhere in Khon Kaen: (Note: there is no airport even remotely close in either direction and notice how the planes reflection is almost directly below it, indicating it was either very low or ........drum roll............ in the water !) Note that I didn't bother rushing to the media to claim that I'd found the missing plane, in a pond next to a Buddhist temple in the heart of Thailand. I'm sure there are some who would have though. (They updated the Sat image already and the plane is no longer there - you have to go into the historical data to find it. I was actually searching for old Khmer era temples when I came across this image. At no time did I even consider that this was "the missing plane" because I'm not an idiot. Well, not all the time. Usually. Maybe. I'm going to leave now.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natway09 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 The photo makes it look like it is not in the Andaman but in the Thai Bight If so would take about 2 days to clarify ,,,not deep there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natway09 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 If it is where the sat photo shows it would have clearly been on Thai radar as it is still in the restricted zone My first thoughts ,,,,,,, rubbish but could easily be an old US navy plane went down 50 years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
