There seems to be one way traffic here - SUPERMMM asks questions, gets an honest answer as far as the responders can. The answer then appears to be ignored when it is contrary to supermmm's fixation that this can all be worked out by simple physics and a few broad assumptions.

He does not appear to have any basic aviation knowledge (difference between height and altitude? what a transponder does?) and yet persists in insisting that it is all a matter of "high school physics" - IT IS NOT.

It has been said by most responders that the position of debris on the ground CANNOT be used to calculate the flight path with any accuracy, if the aircraft is being violently manouevered then it is just not possible at all. Is he accepting this advice?

We have asked supermmmm to demonstrate that this is untrue by giving two examples for him to calculate - both completely ignored.

I think that this is a wind up
