UPDATE - 07-03-2009
French authorities are reporting that this plane hit the ocean flat .... then broke apart. They are saying the plane did not break apart in the air and that the pitots were not a major factor nor was the weather:
THING IS THIS:
They also say they cannot explain why the state of the bodies .... intact with multiple internal fractures .... flies in the face of such a landing. The 2 sets of circumstances directly contradict each other.
Family members are saying they are waiting until they can get the results from the black boxes. They do not yet believe the true facts known.

Location of Last Verbal Contact ( 01:33 AM GMT )
01° S 21'39" / 32° W 49' 53"
| Location at 2:14 AM (GMT) of reported Last Electronic message advising of cabin pressure compromised and "vertical cabin speed"
03º N 34' 40" / 30º W 22' 28"
A total of 24 electronic messages were sent.
|
- The autopilot is disengaged and massive system failures followed.
- One minute later - Message: "multiple faults regarding Adiru" (computer)
- Two minutes later - Flight control primary Computer "1" failed, then Flight control secondary Computer "1" fails. Yet, both had back-ups.
- Something else happens and the plane is out of control
- Four minutes after the autopilot has disengaged,the Cabin "suddenly de-pressurizes"; possibly with explosive force.

- Wreckage has been found 410 miles & "to the right" of the Island of Fernando de Noronha
Roughly: 04º North and 30º West (Brazilian Air Force believes the accident would have occurred at roughly: 04º North 29º West)
- Brazilian TV is reporting SMS text messages sent from the plane. No screen-shots yet.
- BOMB THREAT REPORTED: Airport safety delayed an Air France flight on May 27th. That flight was also headed for Paris. The bomb threat came from an airport at Ezeiza in Buenos Aires . The plane was examined; no bomb was found and that plane arrived safely.

| AIR FRANCE #447 UPDATE
- Most of the bodies examined thus far were found naked or with little clothing which suggests wind may have removed them.
- So far, the bodies show no sign of burns. The Plane's rudder was locked in place.
- Almost all bodies ( 50 so far and in 2 distinct groups 50 miles apart) had multiple fractures, BUT: no water in lungs. This means death occurred before hitting the ocean.
- Findings thus far suggest the plane "broke apart" while still in the air.
- No reason yet given for how this would or could have happened:
- Other planes flew through the same weather on the same route as #447, without incident.
- #447 would not have been affected by lightning, in that planes fly through and are struck by lighting routinely.
- Air France maintains that the pitots (air speed sensors) which needed replacing would not have caused the plane to break apart.
- There is still the "6 seconds of bright white flash" seen plunging into the ocean by a Spanish Pilot (Air Comet Flight #974) following the same route to Paris but behind Flight #447.
- And finally, the 24 messages sent by the plane's automatic systems saying that there was multiple instrument failure.
- The auto-pilot was off so the pilots would have been trying to fly the plane manually, but without accurate flight instrument data.
|
Implied So Far:
(1) Once air pressure was lost at GMT~2:14, passengers would have become unconscious in 30 seconds.
(2) The Plane appears to have broken up in mid-air.
(3) Fuel found floating abmong the debris suggests no explosion.
| UPDATE - 06-04-2009
- GMT ~ 2:00 AM
- Pilot Marc Dubois sends a signal saying he's flying through areas of Black, electrically charged cumulonimbus clouds with violent winds & lightning
- (NOTE: these clouds would be sending 100 MPH updrafts into the plane's path)
- GMT ~ 2:10 AM: "A Crescendo of Awfulness" came raining down:
- The auto-pilot disengaged ... the pilots were taking the plane into their own hands.
- A Computer system switched to an alternate power source.
- The controls needed to keep the plane stable had been damaged.
- An alarm sounded warning that flight systems were going out.
- GMT ~ 2:13 AM:
- Automatic messages said air speed, altitude & direction were no longer being monitored, and control of the main flight computer as well as the wing spoilers were gone.
- GMT ~ 2:14 AM:
- Complete electrical failure, massive loss of cabin pressure, the plane breaks apart and plunges into the Ocean below.

First Electronic Message: "Multiple System Failures" 2:10 AM GMT
Time at accident location: 12:10 AM
(Time zone for Fernando de Noronha)
Plane encountered turbulence (Heavy Storms) at Midnight on June 1st local time for plane
Location of Last Verbal Contact ( 01:33 AM GMT )
01° S 21'39" / 32° W 49' 53"
| Location at 2:14 AM (GMT) of reported Last Electronic message advising of cabin pressure compromised
03º N 34' 40" / 30º W 22' 28"
2 bodies found: 06-06-2009
50 bodies found total as of: 06-25-2009
NOTE: The plane did not have total electrical failure or else electronic messages could not have been sent.
|
- The first batch of automated "system failure" messages is a series of 12 radio alerts
- These alerts said the auto-pilot and auto-thrust systems had disengaged & the airspeed sensors were faulty,
- That the TCAS was in fault mode and the flight mode was in "alternate law".
|
- The last known location was given with the 2:10 ACARS transmission at about 70 nautical miles from waypoint TASIL ..... according to a BEA press release on June 17th.
- ..... close to the original search area:
02º N 59' / 30º W 35'
The black boxes have yet to be found.
|
- The messages then continued from 02:11 to 02:14 and included fault messages for an ADIRU unit as well as the ISIS (a standby instrument system)
- 2:12: saw the NAV ADR Disagreed meaning the independent air data systems did not concur with each other.
- 2:13: a fault message for the flight management guidance and envelope computer was sent.
- 2:14: (1) Warning re: the air data reference system
(2) An Advisory Code for: "cabin vertical speed warning" (it was on its way down)
|
Wreckage
- As Recovery Crews work, they find large parts of the plane in 2 distinct areas 50 miles apart. The wreckage appears in sections almost intact.
- Bodies were recovered, nude or lightly clothed and while the bodies were intact ... whole ... they had multiple fractures in legs, arms, hips. So far, no water was found in the victims' lungs.
- It is thought that these findings support the plane actually having broken apart in the air. Death would have come quickly ... like slipping into a coma ... in the air.

What the Charts Have to Say: |
|
Click Image to Enlarge |
|
| Many charts could be run for this event. Using LMT, further triangulating for location ... Adjusting for various times between the 2:10 AM GMT time and the 2:14 AM GMT time when the plane actually showed the cabin in vertical speed and sent its last transmission.
The Chart here is for the time when:
"It all went wrong" ... when the first trouble message was sent saying, in essence,
"Everything just went to Hell in a Handbasket"
That "moment" it time was interesting to me; as it would seem to define what might have happened to send the plane plummeting to the Ocean 4 minutes later.
The Radix Chart:
←
|
The Dial Chart , for the same moment in time, has a lot to say.
It shows a picture indicating:
"From a Comfortable Rest to Sudden Fright" .
The chart also indicates "exploding gases" and seems to say other people from many different locales were in some sort of contact with the plane.
If this chart is correct .... the Vertex (fated factors) has a decanate meaning describing: "A Place of Adversity, Shock, & Disaster".
The Chart further describes:
"A Brightly Blazing Conflagration"

- Mars/Saturn is "Interruption" or sometimes "Death"
- Mercury is communication, data, speed, movement, motion, Respiration (breathing)
- ASC + Poseidon - Admetos: can indicate the unseen factors in the air of the personal environment or: the Air Quality of the Cabin or a concentration of unseen gas in the environment.
- Admetos + Poseidon - ASC: can indicate the Atmosphere or Air in the Cabin.
- On the Dial Chart: ASC + Poseidon - Admetos (Air Quality or Content of the Air in the cabin of the plane) equals Mars/Saturn = Mercury (the end of whatever Air Quality or Content of Air pre-existed) or (The Air Quality ends Respiration .... or: there is a lethal concentration of an unseen gas or gases in the environment.)
- On the Dial Chart: Admetos + Poseidon - ASC (The Atmosphere or Air in the plane's cabin equals Aries/Pluto : (undergoes a huge transformation or change)
