that's weird, the news yesterday said there were two Americans on board, now I wonder if there were or not. You can bet they know pretty well where they went down, as those airplanes travel the same eneral route counstanly..maybe they can find the little black box. It makes me wonder why they don't have an series of small inflating balloons attached to the airplanes underside that would automatically deploy themselves once they hit water. Hitting the water alone that high up in the air would be like flaling onto  cement unless the piolt had the abilty to glide into the water. Maybe the little black box they can find..wonder who was on board and if they were politcally important. Such an tragedy. My condolences to those with loved ones whom died.

Perhaps they were refering to the cockpit voice recorder, which was introduced in UK aircraft after the Trident crash near Staines in 1972 ?

 yes thats it paul,  They say it is a privacy issue of the crew well i could care less what the heck they talk about but if it helps to find ppl quicker and find out what caused these crashed than they do need to download the box instead of spending hours and hours searching for it,
