It's been almost exactly five years since Malaysian Airline's Flight 370 vanished. And international investigators1 don't look like they're any closer to solving what's become one of aviation's greatest mysteries. Malaysia's prime minister says his country plans to continue searching for the plane.
And the families of the missing continue to meet, as they did recently, to support each other and to keep international attention focused on the disappearance2. There were 239 people aboard the flight from Malaysia's capital to China's. Those two countries plus Australia spent an estimated $150 million in their official search for the plane, they didn't find it. And a second attempt to locate MH370, carried out by a U.S. company called Ocean Infinity3 wr?apped up last year, also without answers.
The missing airliner4 that disappeared on March the 8th, 2014, after the flight left Kuala Lumpur bound for Beijing then dropped off radar5 an hour after takeoff. Later, satellite data showed investigators that the plane had continued to fly for up to eight hours and finally crashed in the Indian Ocean off the Australian coast. The experts narrowed the crash site to around 120,000 square kilometer search zone. An extensive and exhaustive effort including a deep ocean search found no sign of the aircraft.
Then over several years, debris6 confirmed to be from MH370 has washed up along the eastern African coast. Still, the main body section, the fuselage of the plane, remains7 missing.
