Default 'Pings' may NOT have been from MH370 after all

What reason could there possibly be for not releasing the recordings?
It is clearly not related to national or international security. Then
what?

If you wanted to make it look like you were covering something up then
this is exactly what you would do.

So if you want to make it look like you are NOT covering something up
then what? Is this it?

I really cannot fathom this out yet.

'Pings' may NOT have been from MH370 after all

Audio recordings of the 'ping' signals believed to have come from the
black box of Flight MH370 will now not be released as doubt grows over
whether they are connected with the missing plane.

The Joint Agency Coordination Centre (JACC) headed by Angus Houston
told the Herald Sun that the search group's original confidence the
four acoustic 'ping' signals were from the plane had waned and the
recordings would not be made public.

'The recordings of the detections will not be released at this point
in time,' the JACC said.

'We continue to pursue this lead to either discount or confirm the
area of the detections as the final resting place of MH370.'

The decision is a blow to the families of some of the MH370 passengers
who issued a plea earlier this month to make the recordings public.

A group of families called Voice370 released a statement saying, 'We
implore the Malaysian government to share and release the raw Inmarsat
satellite engine ping data for 9MMRO (every ping from Friday, March 7
12:00 until the final signal was received globally) so that it can be
subject to broader analysis by relevant experts.

This is a departure from Retired Air Chief Marshall Houston's
certainty last month that the ping recordings were potentially from
the missing plane.

Mr Houston said a possible fifth ping detected by a surveillance plane
conducting an acoustic search had the potential of being from a
man-made source, although it required further detailed analysis.

The Australian Joint Acoustic Analysis Centre based at HMAS Albatross
in Nowra, on the NSW coast south of Sydney, had concluded that two
pings detected by the ship Ocean Shield's towed-pinger locater on
April 5 and April 8 were from a source that was not of 'natural
origin' and was 'likely sourced' from specific electronic equipment.
At the time, U.S. Navy Captain Mark Matthews said the it was
'certainly a man-made device emitting that signal and I have no
explanation for what other component could be there'.
'I'm an engineer so I don't talk emotions too much. But certainly when
I received word that they had another detection, you feel elated.
'You're hopeful that you can locate the final resting place of the
aircraft and bring closure......
