If a plane crashes on land, theres plenty of smoke to give away as to its location. Under water a GPS is totally useless. The black box may also emit a distress signal, hence giving away its location 2009/6/12 nyarotho kennedy <kenyarotho@gmail.com>
Good people,
its amazing how airlines havent considered the use of GPS in their tracking systems( IEC Broadband reporting) yet every other valuable(cars, phones, laptops n even kids!) is GPS enabled. This is quite shocking considering the NSA's rating of GPS systems as having accuracy rates of 99.3% for last mile applications. With GPS the crash site would have been located within minutes of going off radar. Guess its something our local airlines could score a first in. Over to KQ and KCAA.
