Maybe the 200' mark pushes them into a different insurance coverage bracket. ;)RoyGBiv wrote:I've been watching the news for too long. Something about 199' 11" stuck in my head.jmra wrote:You're correct. AP had it incorrectly labeled as 119'11" instead of 199'11".
Watching that stat on the news graphics I keep thinking.... "Sooooo close, you'd think they'd have found a way to add another inch"
Serious question...does anyone know how they were able to find the Air France plane's black boxes 2 years after that one crashed off the coast of Brazil (I think it was Brazil?)? I keep hearing that the pings only last for 30 days...did they juist get lucky with the Air France plane to find them after so long? I realize they at least had an idea of where to look for those.
Still seems like a needle in a haystack for that too.
