Object that washed ashore on Reunion island not debris from missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, official says

BY DAVID BOROFF , JOSEPH BARRACATO

A false alarm.

An object that washed ashore on the Indian Ocean's Reunion island just days after a wing component of a Boeing 777 was found is not debris of missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, an official says.

The aircraft door was found just a short distance from where wreckage believed to be from flight MH370 was originally discovered.


Authorities said an object was found early Sunday morning.

"I'm the one leading the investigation in France for the analysis of the (wing flap) piece brought back," Malaysian Director General of Civil Aviation Azharuddin Abdul Rahman said. "I read all over media it (the new debris) was part of a door. But I checked with the Civil Aviation Authority, and people on the ground in Reunion, and it was just a domestic ladder."member of Cambuston Church on Reunion island lights one of 239 candles, representing the number of people aboard Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, during a vigil on Saturday.

Malaysia Airlines flight number MH370, a Boeing 777, was carrying 239 people when it originally went missing back in March 2014.

Did they just do an Onslaught in the middle of that article?

Well, damn. My response makes no sense now that you've edited your article.

I feel that way about some of your posts even when the OP didn't edit the article.

Does this change anything? My assumption is the currents carried this stuff for the last year and a half. Outside of conspiracy theorists, we can assume either A) a lunatic pilot did this intentionally or B) There was a serious malfunction... I think A is extremely more likely.

Regardless, most logical conclusions are this plane crashed in the Indian Ocean and all passengers died when it disappeared.

At the end of the day, this just rehashes a story, but provides little evidence as to what caused this.

This fits precisely to my theory that a bunch of

loose luggage banged around breaking off a piece of the wing.

I feel like if some hit this tiny island, there should be a huge pile of stuff washing up on Madagascar in a few days. It's kind of in the same line, but the coast is like 100x longer.

do we know that the flaperon just washed up? or could it have been ashore for a while, and only now just discovered?

I don't know...I've been trying to find something that even said who found it. No luck. I mean, if it was some random villager, they could've been using it as a table for months.

Wouldn't it be even weirder if there are pieces of Boeing 777's floating around that aren't a part of MH370?

 

[bagger]

Not wavering from my theory that it is at the bottom of the ocean.

To those that think it landed, what is required for refueling? Gotta have a refueling truck. You also gotta be able to purchase jet fuel, somehow get it delivered. Forget the island bull####. It has to be a runway. Got to have a lit runway long enough for the plane. All has to be coordinated ahead of time. The US listens for suspected terrorist conversations. So does mossad. If this really happened and bin laden was still alive, he would be jacking in ecstasy of such a plot. All 600 landable runways are being checked. It would have to refuel, take off again and avoid radar.

Bottom of the ocean theory.

Nailed it. Plane went in like a hot knife thru butter.

congrats?

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

I'm still not dismissing the black hole theory. I mean the evidence may say, " its more probable than not," that the plane did not fly into a black hole, but what percentage are we talking about? Have we even seen the entire plane? This is some part of the wing, right? What if the plane managed to fly HALFWAY through a black hole? Can you even call that flying into a black hole? Too many questions left unanswered.

A lot of holes that look black are actually navy blue.

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 6 (Reuters) - Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak confirmed on early on Thursday that a Boeing 777 wing segment discovered in the Indian Ocean island of Reunion is from the missing Flight MH370, the first real breakthrough in the search for the plane that disappeared 17 months ago.

"The international team of experts have conclusively confirmed that the aircraft debris found on Reunion Island is indeed from MH370," Najib said in a televised statement.

This article/data is fantastic.

I'm calling south side of Zenith Plateau.

What I don't get is how on the "Possible Flight Paths" graph, you have the Medium probability on the South West, and the High on the North East...with Low in the middle. How is Low in the middle? It just seems very counter-intuitive.

And, there it is. No way to ever locate the main part of the plain if the thing broke up. Small pieces will float around and more may show up but the final resting place is not going to be found.

That island is like 1/2 mile wide, and 2 miles across, and it appears people live there...I feel like if something crashed on it, somebody would've heard something.

As if I needed more reason to not believe this at all...

'There was a skeleton still in the pilot's seat. The pilot had his safety belt on and the communication gear attached to his head and ears.'

So...impact was great enough to kill everyone on board, damage tracking devices to the point where they didn't help searchers find the wreckage, etc...yet the force wasn't enough to knock a simple headset off of the pilot's head? Come on woman. No way.

2. MH370 hunt moves to where user iflyhigh420 from the aviation forum believes it crashed.

MH370: Search teams 'looking in the right place', studies say

By Katie Hunt and Rebecca Wright, CNN
Updated 11:13 AM ET, Thu December 3, 2015 | Video Source: CNN


Hong Kong (CNN)Teams searching for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 are looking in the right place, the results of two new independent studies suggest.

The Joint Agency Coordination Center, the Australian government agency in charge of the search, said a new "prioritized" search area in the Indian Ocean had been identified by the new analysis, at the southern end of the existing search zone.

It is significant that the two studies, which had been taking place since the search began and used different methods, reached similar conclusions, the JACC said.

"The new research released today further emphasizes that we are searching in the right direction," Australian Deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss said at a press conference.

The Australian Defense Science and Technology (DST) Group carried out its analysis using Bayesian methods -- a statistical technique that informs probability -- while aircraft maker Boeing analyzed the possible speed and flight ranges of the plane at different cruise altitudes.

The JACC said that the discovery of the flaperon on Reunion island in July was consistent with the current search area.

In September, French authorities confirmed that the plane part was from the missing flight.

The existing 120,000 square kilometer target area will continue to be "thoroughly searched," the JACC said, an operation that will likely take until June 2016.

To date, around 76,000 square kilometers -- more than 60% of the search area -- has been covered. Truss said that improving weather conditions would make the search easier and the vessels involved would focus on the southern parts of the target area.

Truss added that China is providing a ship that will join the search in January, bringing the total to four.

MH370, carrying 239 passengers and crew, disappeared in the early hours of March 8, 2014, less than an hour after it took off from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, en route to Beijing, China.

Deliberately Flown into the Ocean

Did they just figure out that the captain planned a simulated run into the Indian ocean?  I would think that information should have been captured a long time ago (like the German pilot).
