Answer»

CNN now reports the lost Malaysia FLIGHT 370 has been located.

A FAILURE TO COMMUNICATE
6. How does a plane the size of a Boeing 777-200ER just disappear?
It doesn't. It -- or its pieces -- are somewhere. It doesn't help that Flight 370's flight path is unclear and that the search areas include vast waters and sparsely populated jungles and mountains.
But its apparent disappearance is made even stranger by the fact that the jet was laden with massive amounts of technology, including a TRANSPONDER, UHF and VHF radios, automatic beacons, GPS and computer communications systems, as WELL as the cell phones of the passengers and crew.
But the engine was sending "pings" for five hours.

10. Was anything else on the plane sending data?
Authorities believe that "pings" from the plane's Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) were transmitted to satellites for four to five hours after the transponder stopped sending signals, a senior U.S. official told CNN.
