Don't you know the Bermuda Triangle story is just a myth?! Unless you're using it metaphorically, well, then that's OK. Really, Fulano! Don’t you know the Bermuda Triangle story is just a myth?!

Unless you get there in a timely manner you can't always find anything - A plane crashes and catches on fire - if you aren't there pretty soon after , you can't see the fire and the smoke and if its raining keep dreaming - because you'll never find it after the rain outs the fire and stops the smoke!! As usual we always do too little too late. Unfortunately I'm not as optimistic as the rest of you. If the crew is or was alive they are going to be/were injured, more than likely seriously. The length of time this rescue is taking/has taken, God only knows what they may have gone through. I just hope they didn't suffer too much! As I've said before, there was an ELT which I can't understand why no one found - especially after knowing that there is at least one ELT direction finder(ELT DF) in Guyana. If an ELT was heard the ELT DF should have been used to find the location - no media source or anyone has mentioned the use of this type of equipment??? Maybe SN could investigate?? This crash should galvanize the GCAA to ramp up there implementation of the new 406 ELT's that are much more accurate, sending out precise information to the satelites to the powers at be so that we can locate the next crash - hopefully never!
