Missing Malaysian Airlines Flights MH 370 Search Continues Friday March 21,2014

 

29 planes, 21 ships and six helicopters now involved in the exhaustive search for possible debris from missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 in Indian Ocean

 

The exhaustive search operation for the MH370 in the southern Indian Ocean has been bolstered by extra military and commercial vessels and much clearer weather, with Australia-led air teams joined by ships and helicopters as officials scramble to cover the massive 600,000 square-kilometre search area.

The first of Australia's Orion P3 aircraft has completed its two-hour sweep of the search area, some 2,500 kilometres (1,500 miles) south-west of Perth after American satellite imagery picked up two large objects – one up to 24 metres (78ft) in length.

Royal Australian Air Force Loadmasters, Sergeant Adam Roberts (L) and Flight Sergeant John Mancey (R), prepare to launch a data marker buoy from a C-130J Hercules aircraft in the southern Indian Ocean as part of the Australian Defence Force's assistance to the search for Malaysia Airlines flight MH370

Two pieces of wreckage that are possibly from the missing Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 - one estimated to be 78ft in size - have been found to the west of Australia .
