MH370: Debris found in March ‘almost certainly’ from missing plane
AUSTRALIA – Two pieces of debris found on beaches in South Africa and Mauritius on March 22 and 30, respectively, are “almost certainly” from missing Malaysian Airlines Flight 370, a report from the Australian Transport Safety Bureau has found.
The flight disappeared in March 2014, seemingly without a trace. A search in the southern Indian Ocean, thousands of kilometers off the west coast of Australia, is ongoing. MH370, two years later: ‘Where are our family members?’ Since then one piece of debris has conclusively been linked to the plane. The update to the ongoing report, published May 12, states that the two items determined to be a segment from an aircraft engine cowling and an interior panel from the main cabin were from a Malaysian Airlines Boeing 777, and “almost certainly” from the aircraft registered 9M-MRO, the registration number of the missing plane.(CNN.COM)…[+]
