So the original Aussie search was derailed by a dead whale, recalculations that proved to be wrong, false pings and apparently someones insistence that the search be moved North. Currently they have super glued the search to that 7th arc which personally I think is just another effort to delay or not find what they are supposedly looking for.
But jumped on the conspiracy wagon a long time ago, and concluded it was a cover up.

I am a bit late, bit long winded and this is not exactly the question I would have asked if I had the ATSB lined up in my sights but here it is. You can save it for next time, this will be going on for a while yet.

The only thing you can say with any confidence is that MH370 flew through that 7th arc, she was still in the air. The BFO is not reliable, a B777 is not likely to take a sudden dive and drop like a rock when it has been in stable flight, and with doubts about what the primary radar was actually tracking and how long the fuel lasted, why not just follow their preferred routes (ATSB and Inmarsat) past the 7th arc. Which will lead them back to the area the Aussies abandoned on the 27th March. Why not when the weather fines up again take a slow fishing trip back towards the area the underwater search should have been started in, if things had not been quickly shifted north, for a wild goose chase.

Because that area they abandoned looked a whole lot more interesting than any where else they have looked. Even without any mad Tomnod taggers bugging them for why they never looked at her preferred spot with the real interesting wreckage.

Excellent 1st post aussie500 & I agree with Kharon, not at all long winded. Also to Simon Gunson your input is most welcome - but be warned play nice! 

Even if we agree to disagree on certain aspects of how, why or by whom MH370 disappeared into apparent oblivion, the common theme of all posters on this & other MH370 threads should be to try and sort the wheat from the chaff & come to highest probability theory/theories etc. on where the hell Boeing 777-2H6ER, serial number 28420, registration 9M-MRO ended up.
