Not if they are all on the same frequency and unsychronised.

@jox
Most of what you say is entirely correct. A suitably processed data stream of requisite speed can be sent from an aircraft via satellite to a ground station. The technology has been around for...

Not again, please! :ugh:
It's pointless putting substitute data provision where is not needed (FDR lands on the ground), instead of where it is needed (FDR falls into the ocean).

Wake up Mods!

It's time this thread was locked, a new one opened for AF447 discussion only, and another in Jet Blast for impossible crackpot ideas.

Unfortunately, no.
100Mbs from one aircraft would be easy.
But we don't have that, we have 1,000 separate data streams sent up to the satellite receiver. The transmissions can't be sent up blind...

Thank you Christiaan.
So to build a system that is reasonably future-proof you will need 100kbps per aircraft, 1000 aircraft over the Atlantic, total 100 Megabits.

ChristiaanJ,
I did mention the dye marker previously, but it seems so obvious that I would not claim to be first with the suggestion.
