Missing Flight Left Data Trail

标题:失踪航班留下数据踪迹


Communication satellites received intermittent data "pings" from a missing Malaysia Airlines jet, giving the plane's location, speed and altitude for at least five hours after it disappeared from civilian radar screens, people briefed on the investigation said Thursday.

The final satellite ping was sent from over water, at what one of these people called a "normal" cruising altitude. The people declined to say where specifically the transmission originated, adding that it was unclear why the transmissions stopped. One possibility one person cited was that the system sending them had been disabled by someone on board.
The automatic pings, or attempts to link up with satellites operated by Inmarsat, occurred a number of times after Malaysia Airlines Flight 370's last verified position, these people said, indicating that at least through those hours, the Boeing Co. 777 carrying 239 people remained intact and hadn't been destroyed in a crash, act of sabotage or explosion.
Malaysian Airlines said it hadn't received any such data.

Chicago-based Boeing declined to comment Thursday.

周四参与调查的人员说,失踪马航航班从民航雷达屏幕消失后的至少五个小时里,通讯卫星依然断续收到了来自航班的位置、速度和高度信号。

卫星最后一次收到的信号来自水面上空“正常”巡航高度。调查人员拒绝透露信号源的位置,而且表示还不清楚信号传送中止的原因。有调查人员提到了失踪航班上人为关闭信号传输的可能性

接收自动信号传输的卫星是由Inmarsat公司运营的。在之前认为的最后已知位置之后,还有数次信号传输发生。调查人员据此认为,至少在这数个小时里,这架载有239个人的波音777飞机还是完好的,没有坠毁、人为破坏以及爆炸发生

马航方面则表示他们还没有收到相关的数据。

位于芝加哥的波音公司拒绝评论。


If the plane remained airborne for that entire period it could have flown more than 2,200 nautical miles from its last confirmed position over the Gulf of Thailand, these people said.

On Thursday, meanwhile, the international search for the plane zeroed in on areas far west of the plane's last known location.

Cmdr. William Marks, the spokesman for the U.S. Seventh Fleet, said the USS Kidd would move through the Strait of Malacca, on Malaysia's west coast, and stay at its northwest entrance, while surveillance planes would search an area of the Indian Ocean 1,000 miles or more west of the strait.

Malaysia, which is overseeing the search effort, directed Indian forces to a specific set of coordinate in the Andaman Sea, northwest of the Malay peninsula, an Indian official said Thursday.

"There was no specified rationale behind looking in those areas, but a detailed list was provided late Wednesday evening," the Indian official said.

U.S. aviation investigators said they were analyzing the satellite transmissions to determine whether they can glean information about the plane's location or status. The transmissions were sent via onboard technology designed to send routine maintenance and system-monitoring data back to the ground via satellite links, according to people familiar with the matter.

Among the possible scenarios investigators said they are now considering is whether the jet may have landed at any point during the five-hour period under scrutiny, or whether it ultimately crashed.

The people said aviation investigators are exploring the possibility that someone on the plane may have intentionally disabled two other automated communication systems in an attempt to avoid detection. One system is the transponders, which transmit to ground radar stations information on the plane's identity, location and altitude, and another system that collects and transmits data about several of the plane's key systems.

The widebody jet was scheduled to fly overnight to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur in the predawn hours of March 8. Its transponders last communicated with Malaysian civilian radar about an hour after takeoff.

After the plane dropped off civilian radar screens, these people said, the satellite link operated in a kind of standby mode for several hours and sought to establish contact with a satellite or satellites. These transmissions didn't include data about any of the plane's critical systems, they said, but the periodic contacts indicate to investigators that the plane was still intact and believed to be flying at least a significant portion of that time. The people said the transmissions included detailed information about the plane's location, speed and bearing.

The transmissions, one person said, were comparable to the plane "saying I'm here, I'm ready to send data."

Unknown so far to investigators is what happened to the plane following the final satellite ping, these people said. Questions remain about the plane's status, including what was happening in the cockpit.

But the huge uncertainty about where the plane was headed, and why it apparently continued flying so long without working transponders and other communication links, has raised theories among investigators that the aircraft may have been commandeered for reasons that remain unclear to U.S. authorities.

At one briefing, according to this person, officials were told that investigators are actively pursuing the notion that the plane was diverted "with the intention of using it later for another purpose."

As authorities scramble to analyze and understand all of the transmissions from the missing 777, the situation continues to change rapidly. Some people briefed on the issue initially described the transmissions as information that had been relayed from onboard monitoring systems embedded in the two Rolls-Royce PLC Trent 800 engines, not the idling satellite communications system.华尔街日报半小时前发布的最新消息。
