"It was by no means an unrealistic location but it was further to the north east than our area of highest probability," Chris Ashton at Inmarsat told Horizon.
I presume that they were referring to Malaysian government publishes MH370 details from UK AAIB - Inmarsat

The interesting point of this is that it is based on constant groundspeed. Have they been though the aloft winds for the 8th March and integrated them into the constant TAS to obtain a groundspeed (the track would be the same if it was on LNAV)?
Does anyone have access or a link to the actual winds aloft at that time, it could be an interesting line to follow?
