Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott says they have found MH370/CZ748!
Australian Maritime Safety Authority says satellites found wreckage, but refused to back up the Prime Minister’s claim. More satellites and Australian and U.S. military search aircraft are being directed to the area. A merchant ship has been ordered to the area by AMSA.
An Australian reporter interviewed by phone on Chinese TV claims that Australia’s SAR efforts are so good that she is confident that debris found 2500km (1553 miles) southwest of Perth belong to MH370/CZ748. One piece of debris is 24 meters (79 feet) in size.
The area is deep in the middle of the Indian Ocean, and seems to line up with claims by people living on the islands of the Maldives.
Yesterday there were many reports by people of the Maldives claiming they saw an airliner flying very low and heading south, southeast, which means the plane was flying into the middle of the large Indian Ocean. The Maldives are located at the north end of the Indian Ocean.
If this is true, and MH370/CZ748 did crash in the Indian Ocean, west of Australia, it will only open even more can-o-worms questions about what the hell happened, and how did it get that far?
