Oh come on this thing will never fly low enough to see any survivors let alone be able to drop ASRA close enough to them.
From the Guardian
• Friday's search of the southern Indian Ocean yielded no sightings of debris from missing flight MH370. Five aircraft took part – three Australian Orions, a long-range Bombardier Global Express corporate jet and a US Navy P8 – flying very low, with the search conducted by officers looking out of the window, after radar proved ineffective. The search will resume on Saturday at dawn.
The reason why the radar search was ineffective was that there was nothing there to detect. If survivors were in the water, they would have seen them.
