The groundbreaking work of aerospace engineer Richard Godfrey in more precisely tracking MH370 has been given a significant boost by the release of aircraft flight data by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority.
The release of the flight plan data facilitated by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau under a strict confidentially agreement will allow Mr. Godfrey to validate his work with Weak Signal Propagation (WSPR), which is a digital radio communication protocol to try and locate MH370 which disappeared on March 8, 2014, with 239 onboard.
WSPR explained here
Mr. Godfrey said that he is “currently analyzing the information provided in detail. The general alignment to my validation report above titled “When Whispers Shout” is good.
Mr. Godfrey said his next priorities are to test and validate two search flights for both an Indonesian fishing boat in May 2021 and the MH370 wreckage in late March 2014.
The two flights are;
- AMSA 2021 SAR “D2S2” sortie by VH-XNF call sign RSCU550 from Perth International Airport from the last FlightAware ATC ADS-B detection outbound to the search area.
- AMSA 2014 SAR “MH370” sortie by the RNZAF Orion P-3C from Pearce AFB on 29th March 2014 (Day 22).
