You lot can pick on Dolan all you like, but unless he actually knows where MH370 is and is involved in a coverup, you cannot necessarily say he has handled the search wrong. Would anyone trust Dolan and the ATSB with the truth? Would anyone trust Australia with the truth if it is a coverup?
The 7th arc is a valid starting point (although they wasted time on the 5th and 6th did they not?), Inmarsat are pretty sure of their calculations, with only a bit of error involved. ATSB seem to think for some daft reason a B777 keeled over like a rock and fell near there soon as the fuel ran out, the current search has just about proved that wrong. Could be something wrong with the expert opinion they got on that. Just like the expert opinion that said debris would be washing up on West Sumatra. The BFO on a log in attempt is not reliable, we have no idea what was happening on that plane, but power did seem to go off as it crossed that 7th arc. But then the power went off before and the plane never fell from the sky, if something smaller did no one really did a good search to find out.
MH370 appears to be an escape artist defying the odds, even if it turns up back where the AMSA search ended, they will get a ribbing but you can hardly blame them for moving on when such exciting things as re-calculations, false leads and tempting BB pings that were not, were hauling the official search off course.
Stuffing up the Pel-Air investigation, in an attempt to sweep under the carpet other problems they and CASA should have dealt before it got to that, hardly means they will deliberately or accidentally stuff up the MH370 search. More people are watching them this time, and we cannot blame the ATSB or CASA for losing MH370, only for not finding it. The SIO is a very big place to be looking for 1 lost B777, even if it fell near that 7th arc.
