I wouldn't put to much into the AIS trace and final position of the aircraft .
Its a transponder system designed for track slow moving ships so its sample rate is not fast.
It is fitted to the sar machines to give the customer a track. Its based on ground stations generally so its relativly cheap to operate.
true track would be Blue sky or the like.
