"bobcat4: Why use 37kHz when lower frequencies travel longer in water? I'm just curious."


The main reason is the ULB was never meant for finding a crash site. It was meant to find the black...

I think the final "partial" ping was partial because of a bad signal between the satellite and the aircraft, because the aircraft may not have been straight and level at that point, thus putting it's...

Don't know if MH370 even had fire bottles such as the one pictured, because of the phasing out of Halon systems. The Maldives are quite far from the present search area. I'd be surprised if the...

An ELT won't work underwater. It's 406mhz radio waves won't travel through water. It is for use above the water or on land. The ULB is a 37.5khz buzzer, and it's sound waves, under good conditions,...

Thanks. I do remember the primary reason we used it was because water from sprinklers would ruin millions of dollars of equipment, and Halon wouldn't.

Even though a wooden pallet could be on an aircraft, it doesn't mean anything, because wooden pallets are all over the place, all over the world. I'd be surprised if they didn't find one!
