This always gets me.

We supposedly have all this surveillance and tracking stuff that can detect a pin drop on the moon, yet when it could be really helpful - nothing.

 

Just because you don’t hear about it doesn’t mean they don’t use it

The US once managed to recover a lost helicopter from a depth of 19,000ft, so a recovery could be possible but it's time that's against them for a successful recovery, especially as the vessel hasn't even been located yet.

Heard a snippet of an interview with the company's owner, who as we know is on the submersible.   He said along the lines of the following; 

 

"There's a lot of other companies doing similar business but they're generally run by 50 odd year old white guys with military experience.  We like to do things differently."

ROV sub from Jersey which is able to dive to 4,000 metres /feet (?) is joining the search.

I'm wondering why it wasn't included in the search from the start? 

It's a bit late now as it will take it 48 hours to get to the site.
