The Air France disaster shows how what was unimaginable only a few years ago (in an area of 100s of square miles, to find wreckage in less than a day) has become possible. And so, while I believe the sincerity of statements that the black boxes may never be found, I suspect we will be surprised in short order by their recovery.
I feel terribly for the families and hope some future tragedy can be avoided by review of the event.

And the initial thesis proves true. The impossible becomes the everyday.
