Probably. However they were likely not wanting to speculate on it. It seems fairly clear the banging is happening but whether it’s the sub or not is not clear.

Someone mentioned earlier in this thread that banging on the hour and half passed the hour is done so you make a repeating pattern so it's known not to be something else. Which ultimately can help with locating it as the know they can ignore sounds at other times and focus all sonar on triangulating the hour/half passed signals.
However the 30 minute interval seems to be something made up* as, AFAIK, it's not been confirmed by anyone involved with the search. *though if it is the done thing, I wonder if someone in the press found the details and in the rush to get updates out conflated the what should happen with what is happening.

A fool and his money.
If I was a billionaire, I would have paid an expert to assess the sub, and I am pretty sure he would have advised against the trip.
Hate to say it but an implosion is the best we can hope for considering the time thats already elapsed. Chances of finding anyone still alive is grim, the mental trauma of getting out of that alive would be something to deal with IF they are found alive.

If its made up, thats some saddistic **** that someone is playing to get news clicks.
It would be better find they died instantly.Just talking about this now. We were wondering whether it would be better not to find them now. Rather live in hope they didn't suffer or find the vessel intact and know they spent their last days in terror.
Horrible for all involved.
Worst would be to find it now with one person alive and the others not under suspicious circumstances.

Yeah I picked up on this yesterday
I imagine the media have lied about the 30 min thing, to keep people engaged and clicking, when in fact they're most likely all dead.
Especially when the official guy in charge of the coastguard said "I don't know anything about any 30 min interval"

if it isnt possible then fair enough. i just assumed there would be high pressure devices capable of it used for this sort of thing, but I guess not.
That would use up more oxygen and they also have limited amount of water / food
Just brings shivers thinking if in that situation
You'd think would have multiple methods to send signal if one didn't work? Or technology hasn't advanced enough ? in that case more reason not to do it
Yeah - I can't believe they didn't have some sort of system that can float to the surface and give off SOS signals/beacons to the mothership/coastguard, if the sub gets into trouble..
If I was building that sub, it would absolutely be a top priority to have a system like that... If you can afford to build your own sub, you can afford to have a system like that..

This whole rescue is a bit of an embarrassment for the US. If they can't find something that wants to be found what hope would they have from an adversary. The Co-founder and Chairman, Horizon Maritime Services said they had the best equipment in the world yesterday. Seems like a bunch of bs peddlers now.
