There’s been a lot of confusion over flight MH370, which still hasn’t been found after such a long time, and it looks like the situation is going to get even messy now that some new pieces of debris have surfaced, shedding some light on the situation. It appears that the different investigations into the disappearance of the plane might run into certain conflicts over how they are interpreting the data they have available, as the direction/location of the debris that appeared seems to have made some people quite confused over where the plane could be.
The problem is related to the way findings such as this one are shared between the different teams tasked with investigating the disappearance, as there has been reluctance to provide access to the complete set of data in some cases, which has obviously upset some parties in the search efforts, and led to a lot of tension and confusion.
There is also an issue with how some of the parties involved are interpreting their data, as some reports indicate that the appearance of the debris at the location where it was found was actually surprising to some. The predictions that were made about the location of the plane didn’t seem to match where the parts ended up, at least according to what some specialists were expecting.
Last but not least, the fact that the crash is being investigated by both official government authorities as well as parties pushing for criminal prosecution side by side in France has been criticized by some, who’ve been claiming that this leads to a lot of confusion and conflicts, especially when both parties are unable to agree on a course of action about some new discovery.
However, supporters of the system have the counter-argument that this makes the whole search more open and transparent to the public, and minimizes the risk of any cover-ups. While it’s still possible that people with sufficient power and control could end up compromising the investigation and they could bring some confusion to the search, it’s probably safe to assume that when there are so many eyes firmly focused on the search procedure, nothing will be hidden from the public eye.
Criminal investigations are a separate issue, but some commenters on the situation are of the opinion that those would be of no good to pretty much anyone involved, and they could only serve to do harm by adding even more confusion and conflicts in the whole situation. For the time being, the most important thing is to figure out where the plane went and how exactly it came down, because these questions could be of vital importance to preventing airline incidents in the future.
There is indeed still a lot of confusion over what could have happened to flight MH370, and even though there are several prominent theories that focus on different aspects, we won’t know the truth for sure until the plane has turned up, or at least the more important components of it such as the black box.
But that could be even more difficult, with reports that the battery of the device had expired some time ago, making it impossible to detect where it ended up without scouting for it manually. At the current rate, this could take quite a long time, so hopefully something else is going to happen that would allow the investigators to speed up the process and find out the location of the plane sooner.
It appears the Malaysian Government has deliberately provoked a raft of conspiracy theories about the Maldives to wrestle control of the narrative back from French investigators probing the flaperon found on la Reunion.
One potential reason could be an effort to sabotage the search effort to prevent MH370 being located before the 2nd anniversary when all civil liability for the accident would be extinguished.
Those who have followed the loss of MH370 closely will have noticed a track record of conflicting false claims by Malaysia.
There was reports of the plane being seen that night with flames coming out of it. How do we know the Malaysian government isn’t trying to cover up some kinda military mistake? Like a surface to air strike of some kind? This whole thing has been shady from day one.
