The frame: There's an app to find your lost $1000 iphone, how can you lose a $100m plane?

Exactly. Even people who fly a lot (like me) are in the confines of what feels like a very controlled system. If I can get three connecting flights across two continents with only two hours of layover, how can we just lose a plane?

It's easy to forget the world is really big, and that technology does break.
