I would hate to be in that position. Who initially took charge looking for the passenger jet ?

I went to search for something that was mentioned on FB as being in the Chad desert.It's a memorial site to a bombed passenger plane.I tried to find it using Google earth.I just could not find it until I got the actual direct image posted on line..and that reminded me that this planet is a whole lot bigger than we ever truly realise it to be because we as individuals travel so little of it.
The area they have been searching is at least the size of the Sahara and it must be truly hard to actually search through the satellite pictures getting close enough to see the images which will be miniscule in comparison to a whole sea,a whole planet.Give them the kudos for at least finding what is effectively a needle in a whole pile of haystacks.
