Dear Mr. Jeff Wise,

The only joined your Seabed Search for Malaysian Flight MH 370 to help figure out where MH370 crashed, as I have research as to where MH 370 can be found. If you are not looking for answers then I will cancel my subscription. No answer to this email, means you're not looking for answers, but rather just reporting what has been done, so I will cancel my subscription.

Using NASA's new Landsat Program I have found where MH370 can be found.

I have been very interested in finding where Malaysian flight MH370 crashed, ever since I first heard about its loss. I am sure I have determined how to find Malaysia flight MH370 by using new research data available from NASA.

Using NASA's Landstat Zoom Earth Satellite Program, Zoom Earth Live Weather Map & Hurricane Tracker, I was able to plot/draft right on my computer screen the heading Malaysian Flight MH370 flew and where it crashed. I am contacting you because I understand that Ocean Infiniti is doing a search right now.

First, we know the distances to Malaysian flight MH370 from the satellite at 64.5 deg. East on the Equator at the burst frequency times.

Second, since we also know the times of the Burst Frequencies means that we also know the relative distances MH370 could have flown between each Burst Frequency point. This additional data has been overlooked but allows one to plot the actual crash site.

Therefore, there would have only one direction MH370 could have flown to make all the burst Frequency points line up and the distances between each point that MH370 flew, line up in a straight line. I have found those points, thus zeroing in on the crash site.

Malaysian Flight MH370 can be found mathematically and by using Zoom Earth Satellite Imagery to draft its location, which takes into account the curvature of the Earth.

I have been doing surveying with my dad since I was about 11 years old. I even took drafting in Junior High school.

I have worked as draftsman doing engineering surveying drawings. I have worked as a Road Design Project Engineer for the Illinois Department of Transportation.

I have been a Registered Professional Engineer in the State of Illinois since 1974.

I started to plot out where MH370 might have crashed. Of course, one could not plot MH370's flight path on a flat piece of paper.

However, using NASA's Landstat Zoom Earth Satellite Mapping Program I was able to plot MH370's southerly flight path. We do have enough info to do that.

First, I tried the planes' normal cruising speed but that did not work. Then I tried the maximum speed MH370 could have flown and that checked out perfectly.

Malaysian Flight MH370 Crash Site Plot Updated Oct 19, 2024.

MH370 Crash Site as plotted on Zoom Earth Satellite (Note, this shows the Burst Frequency distances and the distances MH370 flew

between each Burst Frequency point. There would have been only one heading MH370 could have flown to make everything line up.)

MH370 Detail North Flight Path March 8, 2014, Scanned. (Note: The first handshake confused me for a while as it was not on the southward flight path. But to make the times and distances line up, this is my best assumption. But this does not affect the line up of the second through the seventh handshakes.

The only thing left is to use the heading of MH370 that I have found, as 182 degrees south and the approximate time that MH370 crashed as 00:47 UTC minutes from the Cape Leeuwin hydrophone and add that distance to the 7th handshake or about 443 kilometers from the seventh handshake to find where MH370 crashed. I believe MH370 can be found at 38.2397 deg. South and 91. 8735 deg. East. The only question is how long did it take for the hydrophone signal to get to Cape Leeuwin? Some correction might be needed there. I first used the hydrophone heading from Cape Leeuwin as 234 degrees but believe the time would be a more accurate method of finding MH370.

If you have any questions, please contact me by email.
