Eight hours. And within them, many unanswered questions.
Others suggested the delay could have been due to the unorthodox approach taken by the company behind the experimental vessel.
“They probably were waiting for what was would have been the end of the scheduled voyage. And they probably waited for the period when they expected the Titan to come back to the surface,” he speculated. “They were unable to locate it. And then they knew they had an emergency.” “From a military viewpoint, there are specific protocols. But from a commercial one, there is nothing that’s standard,” he said Thursday. “If they said nine hours, that might have been what their agreement was– if we don’t have a problem, we’ll call you in nine hours. For civilian submersibles, it’s what they want. Within the military, if you have got an experiment or test or trials, yes there is a fixed protocol.
“The protocol that is normally used in the Coast Guard operations, and in any kind of potentially dangerous situation, is that you want to maintain communications with someone on the surface or ashore that can call for help or render assistance in the event of an emergency,” Davenport said.
