PeterRS Posted February 26 Posted February 26 It remains one of aviation's most extraordinary mysteries, one that vast amounts of cash and years of searching yielded nothing but a few bits of debris off the coast of Africa. No one could or can explain exactly how or why it happened. Given that there are still people searching for the plane in which Amelia Earhart is assumed to have met her death all the way back in 1937, I suppose it was inevitable that a search for the remains of Malaysian Airlines flight 370 which totally disappeared of the face of earth and sea almost exactly 11 years ago would at some future time be restarted. And that is what is now happening. A vessel from maritime exploration firm Ocean Infinity was spotted in the South Indian ocean on 23 February. It has now been confirmed that it has resumed the hunt for the missing plane and the remains of its passengers. Quote Malaysia agreed to resume the search in December 2024, with Ocean Infinity conducting the search on a “no-find-no-fee” basis. Loke said the government would sign a contract for 18 months, in return for which Ocean Infinity would receive $70m if the wreckage was located and verified. The search would cover 15,000 sq km, [Malaysian trasport Minister] Loke said. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/feb/26/mh370-search-resumes-malaysia-airlines-ocean-infinity TMax 1 Quote
