As the 2026 Ocean Infinity mission presses on in the Southern Indian Ocean with Armada 86 05 continuing targeted seabed scans, Sid sits down with Jean-Luc Marchand—the aerospace veteran and former Eurocontrol Air Traffic Manager whose data has become the "North Star" for this final effort.

In this episode, we unpack:

• 𝐓𝐡𝐞 "𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞" 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐮𝐯𝐞𝐫: Why the timing of the disappearance during the IGARI "handover" points toward a deliberate, manual act.

• 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝟏,𝟐𝟎𝟎 𝐤𝐦² 𝐙𝐨𝐧𝐞: Why Jean-Luc’s precise coordinates became the primary focus for Ocean Infinity’s 2026 "no find, no fee" mission.

• 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬: How the Blelly-Marchand aeronautical model differs from other analyses and why Jean-Luc favors a "controlled ditching."

• 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 𝐒𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞: Analysis of the Armada 86 05's recent movements and whether the "bracketing" behavior near his zone suggests an imminent breakthrough.

• 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐨𝐩𝐞: Can the Black Boxes still provide answers after 12 years in deep salt water, and what happens if this 55-day window closes?
