I woulld like to add at this stage the substance of the debate regarding the bouyancy of the Electra.
So we're pretty close to Howland, good.
Our box search pattern is in place, good.
Visibility not bad, good.
SAR tables in our favour, good.
We're out of gas and in the water but, they'll find us, see the previous 4 points
Bouyancy? If I recall from the thread it was theorised that the Electra would remain afloat for some considerable time due to the empty fuel tanks, see previous 5 points.
How did they miss us? Bad
