I doubt it will ever be found, since they have no idea where to look. They may get lucky and stumble across it, but it's a big ocean, and there's just not much real, accurate data to tell them where to start looking.
TIMBO if you use my re-interpretation of the Doppler frequency offset the truth is MH370 probably made it to Con Son Island off Vietnam suffered an electrical fire, turned around and then discovered the fire, which within seconds ruptured an oxygen line.
From Con Son Island it flew back across Longitude 101.33E and just kept going.
My estimate is it flew 6hrs, 29 mins from Con Son Island at about 470kts to where it intercepted the datum line for pings at 00:19 UTC and then glided down to the sea. This should correlate to about 410nm east of Ile Amsterdam.
That is where I would use a sonar search and if not before the b/box quits pinging then that is the area roughly where it might be found some day.
To point out the bloody obvious they keep looking in the wrong place
