MH370: trajectories
Various expert Groups have proposed Many different potential trajectories for the MH370 each having its respective strengths and weaknesses.
You can find the Associated information under OTHER WEBSITES.
To my opinion the most remarkable trajectories are the ones that the CAPTIO and CAPTION Groups proposed. Similarly for the one by the Radiant Physics Group. Recently Patrick Blelly, a former Boeing 747 captain (who is now also member of CAPTION), proposed an interesting trajectory analysis. It appears to satisfy from a pilot’s perspective most of the constraints the factual data related to the Seven Arcs defined by the Inmarsat experts (see ARC 7) imposed.
The planned trajectory by the CAPTIO Group
The end of the trajectory by the CAPTIO Group
The trajectory of the CAPTION group (which is the CAPTIO group with a reshuffling of members)
The one proposed by Radiant Physics (Dr Victor Iannello et al.)
The trajectory from Captain Patrick Blelly and Jean-Luc Marchand et al.
This is one of the most credible proposed trajectories since it takes into account the potential “human aspect” of the pilot as person-in-command. The authors exposed it in a conference at the Royal Aeronautical Society in London. They also mentioned part of my previous work within the CAPTIO group, for which I thank them very much !
