OK looking at the chart I'm now confused, not that I wasn't before, the Malaysians said the team's latest modelling (incl INMARSAT, AAIB, NTSB, RR, Boeing) led them to use a higher speed and the resulting search is now closer to PERTH. But today's search zone is arrived at from the
slowest speed line (yellow plot, 400kts). What am I missing ?
