The difference between the disappearance MH370 and QZ8501

Many say that there is a similarity between the disappearance of the MH370 and AirAsia aircraft, but experts point out many differences, suggesting the possibility of finding QZ8501 is much greater.

According to CNN, comparing the story of yesterday's disappearance with the missing flight 10 months ago from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, the two incidents are not the same as the impression many people had.

When MH370 disappeared, the signal receiver seemed to be intentionally turned off, the pilot on the plane stopped communicating via radio and mysteriously flew in the direction for several more hours, until all the marks the wound disappeared.

People are worried that the NH370 plane is robbed and terrorized, but in this incident of AirAisa, there are no worries.

"This time people still keep in touch with the pilot, when a stream of air appears to be difficult to prevent flying, the pilot has asked for permission to raise the altitude to avoid disturbance," said Peter Goelz, an expert. aviation, former US National Safety Committee official, commented.

The area is said to be where MH370 falls is an incredible and mysterious deep water. Seabeds in many places have not even been shown on charts, making it difficult to identify black box signals.

As for the QZ8501, if the plane falls into the sea, it is very likely to be within a few thousand meters of this passageway, making navigation and search much simpler, analysts say.

Airlines and governments have a lot of experience from the missing MH370. Earlier, when the Malasia Airlines jet disappeared in March, it was still embarrassing to locate it many hours later. When speaking, officials often give conflicting or confusing information, and the passenger family and crew members complain about the treatment.

In this case, both government officials and airline managers appear and provide timely assistance. Passenger families on AirAsia's flight are fully supported.

Indonesian officials quickly launched a plan to search and mobilize naval vessels as well as call for help from the governments of Malaysia, Singapore and Australia.

AirAsia director Tony Fernandes pledged to do "all things possible" for passengers and crew. Malaysia's transport minister also announced on Twitter that "I will always be there with you".

"He is doing what Malaysia Airlines did not do in the first missing hours, the following days and weeks later, to publicly acknowledge that this is a terrible case," said Will Ripley, CNN newspaper correspondent. Appreciate the way Fernandes handles this crisis.

"In this case, the airline's response and the authorities are in sync, they put priority on the family of passengers, which is the right thing to do," Golez said.

Locate more accurately where the plane loses contact, points out the search area smaller and the search area is more shallow, finding AirAsia's aircraft is certainly easier, Steven Wallace, former director of the US Federal Aviation Accident Investigation Office, said.

"It seems that we are seeing nothing like Malaysia's 370 , " Wallace said. "I'm not surprised if the plane is found within the next 12 hours, in daylight conditions. Because they already knew quite well where the plane lost contact, the water there was only about 45 meters deep compared to the depth of about 6,000m in the Indian Ocean (where MH370 is said to have died) ".
