One of these vessels was an American nuclear submarine, which eventually (an unknown period of time after the end of BioShock) arrives at the real scene of the crash to find debris still floating on the surface of the ocean. The Icelandic Coast Guard launched a search effort by air while American Naval and NATO vessels combed the sea for any sign of the missing jetliner. This area is a significant distance from the site where Jack initially hijacked the plane (63° 2' N, 29° 55' W), which may explain why the search efforts were unsuccessful. This theory is actually close to the truth, as it attempts to explain the disappearance of planes and ships in a wide stretch of ocean around Rapture's location.Ī newspaper clipping from some time immediately following the crash mentions an international search and rescue effort in the area approximately 300 miles southwest of Reykjavík, Iceland. The reason for the crash was never determined by international investigators, causing many speculations to be put forward by conspiracy theorists in relation to the effects of " The Frozen Triangle". The gift turned out to be a pistol, along with instructions to crash the plane at a specific location, (63° 2' N, 29° 55' W), thereby fulfilling Fontaine's plan. It is revealed that Jack, who had been under the control of Frank Fontaine using the phrase " Would You Kindly", actually hijacked the plane after reading the phrase on a note attached to the gift he was carrying. Later, during the segment of the game when Jack finally meets Andrew Ryan face-to-face, Jack sees flashbacks to the time of the crash. The tail damages a glass tunnel, blocking it and causing flooding, but Jack is able to climb through the section and make it to the other side using an exit door at the back of the plane.Ī flashback to Jack opening his gift, containing a gun. It is this tail section that crashes into Rapture minutes later, as Jack explores the city for the first time.
#Bioshock 2 crashing registration
The two largest recognizable pieces of debris on the surface are a wing section, engulfed in flames, and a slowly sinking section of the plane's tail, with the logo and running lights still clearly visible along with the flight's registration number. At least three burned bodies can be found floating in the water. Over the sound of the ocean, the faint cries of the dying passengers can briefly be heard in the distance. A large piece of the fuselage sinks almost immediately (nearly crushing Jack), but many small pieces remain on the surface, along with a raging fire from spilled fuel and many personal effects from the other passengers. The wreckage of the plane is briefly explorable in the first level of BioShock, as Jack swims to the Lighthouse.
