Join the Search for Flight MH370

The crash site of MH370 is more than likely known.

If the CIA can blow the bejaysus out of some smelly Al Qaida commander sitting in a Nissan Cedric in Waziristan, they sure as hell, must know of the approximate location of this aircraft.

Yes, the CIA/NSA or US Air-Force might have ( = more than likely) tracked the (all aircraft world-wide) aircraft (like they did with KA007 back in '83 and didn't come forward with critical information), doesn't mean that they will tell the Malaysian authorities.

Missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370: Malaysian prime minister admits lost plane WAS tracked by military radar

The Malaysian prime minister has finally confirmed reports that the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 was tracked by military radar, as he prepared to host US President Barack Obama in Kuala Lumpur seven weeks after the plane disappeared.

Najib Razak said a preliminary report into the incident would be made available to the public over the course of the coming week. It is expected to raise the issue of how Malaysia’s air force and surveillance networks failed to track the plane once it lost contact with civilian air traffic controllers.

Previous reports have suggested that on the night of MH370’s disappearance on 8 March, military radar picked up a mysterious aircraft moving across the Malaysian peninsula, but government officials have remained vague on any link to the missing Boeing 777.

Speaking to CNN, Mr Najib confirmed that the radar did indeed track the plane once it had turned back from its original flight path – but said that this was only established “after the event”.

He said he believed there was someone monitoring the radar at the time, but that nothing more was done to investigate the unidentified aircraft because “it was deemed not to be hostile”.

“It behaved like a commercial airline, following a normal flight path,” Mr Najib said.

Missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370: Malaysian prime minister admits lost plane WAS tracked by military radar

These Malaysians are unbelievable! The damage to this country's reputation is a million times worse than the lost plane itself.

These Malaysians are unbelievable! The damage to this country's reputation is a million times worse than the lost plane itself.

As awful as it is to consider, one wonders whether or not someone in the region hasn't downed it with a Government controlled SAM.

Secrecy breeds conspiracy theories.

Mohatir Mo is a grade one nutter, and his attack on Boeing does Malaysia no favours.

He also believes 9/11 was carried out by the US government.

Could this be another false alarm?

MH370: Australian officials 'increasingly confident' Indian Ocean debris is from missing plane​

Australian search authorities say they are "increasingly confident" plane debris that washed up on a tiny Indian Ocean island is from missing flight MH370.

A two-metre-long piece of wreckage ”” believed to be a flaperon of a Boeing 777, the same model aircraft as MH370 ”” was found by people cleaning up a beach on La Reunion, a small island east of Madagascar, on Wednesday.

"We are increasingly confident that this debris is from MH370," Martin Dolan, chief commissioner of the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB), said.

"The shape of the object looks very much like a very specific part associated only with 777 aircraft."

Investigators are hoping they will be able to move closer to solving the perplexing mystery swirling around Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, which vanished 16 months ago with 239 people aboard.

Models of sea currents by oceanographers suggest it is plausible that debris from the missing plane could wash up in the tropics.

The recovered object will be flown to a testing site in France near the city of Toulouse for analysis by aviation authorities and could reach there by Saturday, French sources told AFP.

Mr Dolan, however, echoed comments by Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak, who said the object was "very likely" from a Boeing 777 but cautioned that it remained to be confirmed, in a case notorious for disappointing false leads.

He said he was hoping for greater clarity "within the next 24 hours".

How long can the cockpit recorders stay intact for?
Would the sea water have eaten through the casing by now and destroyed the tapes?
