MH370 - Resolving the Inmarsat Data

On 29 May 2014 the Malaysian DCA released on behalf of Inmarsat an abreviated Communications Log providing both the BFO and BTO data they logged for transactions through their IOR 3-F1 satellite to and from 9M-MRO on its last flight.

There has been a lot a discussion about what this data means, and whether it is possible to draw any definitive conclusions over the path the aircraft took from what is purported to be a Malaysian PSR contact at 1822z on 8 March 2014 near way-point MEKAR in the NW Malacca Strait.

To get the subject away from the speculative nature of the current thread in R&N, will hopefully result in some meaningful discussion.
