g******o 发帖数: 4042 | 1 New information, U.S. officials told CNN, indicates the missing airplane
could have flown for several hours beyond the last transponder reading.
Malaysian authorities believe they have several "pings" of engine data from
the airliner's service data system, known as ACARS, transmitted to
satellites in the four to five hours after the last transponder signal,
suggesting the plane is believed to have flown into the Indian Ocean, a
senior U.S. official told CNN. That information combined with known radar
data and knowledge of fuel range leads officials to believe the plane may
have made it to the Indian Ocean.
That possibility is the latest twist in a case that's baffled investigators
and grabbed global attention for days. Information about the missing flight
has been hard to come by, and numerous leads have been revealed by some
officials only to be debunked by others hours later. |
