Given that there is intense interest in China , Malaysia and amongst
operators of the 777 I doubt people are going to lose interest that
quickly. The search for AF-447 started in June 2009 and the wreckage was
finally found in April 2011. Its probable that the first phase will end
in the next few weeks if for no other reason that winter in the southern
ocean is fast approaching. However I would expect a similar phase II
search involving oceanographic reserach vessels to commence in the pring
or summer.
I see according to some new data that the aircraft was burning fuel at a
higher rate so they've knocked 1000 km off the distance travelled
