Aircraft Technology

We live in a day and age where GPS technology is able to track something as small as your smartphone to within a few meters almost anywhere on Earth, so how did we lose communication and sight of 200 feet Boeing 777 during mid air cruising? Why are we still relying on finding the Black Box when we live in an interconnected world? We speak to Ravikumar Madavaram, Consultant for Aerospace & Defence for Frost & Sullivan to discuss on current technology in aircrafts today and should airline companies rethink their communication tools?
