SIA479 Tracked Live Over the Indian Ocean with Aireon Space-Based ADS-B

This only works if the avionics can't be accessed or turned off in flight.
If the aircraft stops broadcasting the position, we can alert on it immediately with this new technology.
You're addressing reasonable equipment malfunctions. I'm talking about human operator malfunctions. The system should be unreachable in flight and powered by a minimum essential bus so it can't be intentionally disabled. That would make be feel safer. If you can't discuss this that in this forum, I understand.
In that the absence of the signal for a period of time would trigger the alert, it doesn't matter if it was malfunction or malevolence. The last known good position would be a starting point. I don't think he is constrained from discussion by fear of retaliation from his higher-ups.
