this is strange: originally Richard Schuman, owner of Makani Kai air, stated that the plane broke into pieces and could not be recovered, however the picture shows the plane was indeed recovered and lifted to the surface

Dear Orly,
It would be interesting to know just what the underwater current at the crash site 70 feet down was during the week from the crash on Dec 11th to the day the plane was lifted.
Perhaps someone who sails or lives in Hawaii could post that info.

Their stories haven’t jived from the beginning. I mean we were told initially that it would be Impossible to recover the plane! We all knew that was hogwash as Air France Flight 447 went down out in the middle of the ocean and it was recovered. So, we are just all supposed to buy the story that a downed aircraft sitting right offshore is a lost cause?? Get real! Like Schumann was fooling anyone. They didn’t want to recover it. That is a fact!!

More disinformation and lies! “Fuddy was able to make it out of the plane and into the water.” REALLY??!!! Then why did rescue personnel tell us “she didn’t make it out of the plane alive. We recovered her from the fuselage?”

Fuddy was dead before the plane hit the water.
The ‘crash’ was intended to cover her murder.
Fortunately, the Obamatollah Regime is too clumsy to properly crash a single-prop plane, so everybody else lived…. making it obvious WHY the only DEATH was the woman who certified Soetoro’s FAKE BIRTH CERTIFICATE.

Dear Orly,
I have found a U.S. Geological Survey .pdf file for the ocean current at Kalaupapa town, Molokai, Hawaii, 2008–2010.
From the data for winter Winter 2009-2010 , I calculate a sea-bed current off Kalaupapa town, nor far from plane crash site, of 0.4 mile per hour, which does not seem like a fierce current to me. It does not seem to be enough of a current to demolish the plane in a week.
Someone who knows currents can download this file, and perhaps prove me wrong. Plese help, Orly needs this data.

Abstract ……………pg 1
ABSTRACT:
The currents primarily are alongshore and are faster at the surface than close to the seabed; large wave events, however, tend to drive flow in a more cross-shore orientation. The tidal currents flood to the north and ebb to the south.
pg 6:
Flow primarily was alongshore close to the surface and more cross-shore near the seabed, possibly owing to wave-driven flows. Tidal currents flooded to the north and ebbed to the south, with the near-surface tidal currents faster than those close to the seabed (fig. 6a-b).

Table 2. Current Statistics.
Current direction is ―Going to‖.
N.S. = Near-surface observation.
N.B. = Near-seabed observation.
Time (Year Days): Winter 2009-2010
Parameter: Speed [m/s]
Depth[m]: 15.5 = (46.5 ft)(N.B.-seabed)
Mean ± 1 Std Deviation: 0.04±0.03
Minimum: 0.00
Maximum: 0.20
Current speed at sea-bed = speed in meters/sec (at depth of 46.5 ft) =/- deviation
One meter = 3 ft
One minute = 60 sec
60 min = one hour
3600 sec in one hour
current max speed = 0.20 meter/sec
.02 meter = 0.6 ft/sec
0.6 ft/sec X 60 sec = 36 ft/min
36 ft/min X 60 = 2160 ft/hr
Conclusion: 2160 ft/hr = 0.4 mile/hr speed of seabed current.

“winter Winter 2009-2010” is not relevant to this.
Check Hawaii newspapers and TV web sites (or a weather channel). Winter Storm and High Surf warnings were issued the past week.
