The Titanic

Had they fitted it out with a release clause Txiki could have found it already.
 
We're sailing across the Atlantic to New York on Friday and are meant to pass where the Titanic sank, sometime next week.

I'm taking my binoculars so can hopefully help with the search...

I'm wondering whether we'll have to divert around the search area, even in a weeks time if they are still trying to find the sub, obviously with no survivors on board. Ugh, it's awful.

You won’t know if you “divert”; this isn’t a set of 4-way temporary traffic lights on Princess Parkway

Obviously. It's The Queen Mary 2 sailing the Atlantic. No cars or streets anywhere thankfully...

Part of the journey is passing over or near to the Titanic though apparently, so I'm guessing we could end up sailing quite a distance away if there's still a massive search area that doesn't allow us to pass by a highlight of the trip.
 
I am getting rather annoyed at many of the media and news outlets about this. They are asking very inane rubbish. One chap who cancelled due to safety concerns has to be the moderator of his interview himself. The news anchor asking questions like "Tell me about Hamish because you are his friend".

It seems largely unimportant at this time what he damn personality is like. All focus should be on extracting expert opinion on the logistics and technical issues we need to overcome in a short time frame to effect rescue. The guy they were interviewing said as much and essentially put the news anchor straight.

We wan't to know if we could attach emergency oxygen to the damn thing or can we get a winch on it or something. Anything pertinent we want to know, not if one of them is good value at a bloody party etc.

The media know it popcorn material - the Mail have got back to back articles with expert opinions of anybody that has ever been in contact with water.
