The kid, Ben Treider, kept in touch with Anderson after viewing a Television program called "Why Planes Disappear," which highlighted the secret of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370. Treider has an interest with planes and aircraft, not particularly surprising, given his mom and dad has both served in the United States Air Force.
According to Consumerist, Inc., the child expressed that he came up of a thought to discover crashed planes that land in the ocean. He recommended that they could have a system that has neon orange balloon that ascent up to the surface when the plane crashed in the sea. The balloon wouldn't be sufficiently light to float up into the air and it would have reinforced rubber to withstand a lot of weight. And additionally, place a RF transmitter in the balloon to find it.
Ben included his own hand-made sketch of the motivated and aspiring plan.
That was in mid-October; a week ago, Ben got an answer from John E Laughter, Delta's Senior Vice President of Safety, Security and Compliance, writing on behalf of Anderson.
Laughter stated that he worked with numerous Delta people, The Federal Aviation Administration and airplane manufacturers to provide solutions to problems which include airline tracking during an emergency. He also included that there are many experts thinking about ideas just like the boy send them. He also assures that he will share the boy's plan with other experts.
Included with the letter was a trove of treats from Delta, including a couple of model planes, marked pens, pencils and more.
Ben's mother, Laura told Consumerist that the kid was so excited. And she appreciates the effort of the busy executive that invested few minutes out of his day to help a little boy feel like his ideas are important and could possibly provide solutions to the issue.
