The search teams have been scouring the waters as far as the southern Indian Ocean but they still have not found anything at all about the missing plane.
Apart from being too laborious and expensive, the search and investigating team believe that recovering the entire aircraft from the ocean floor if and when they eventually find it is unnecessary.
In mid-May, the search vessel Fugro Equator looking for possible wreckage of the mysterious Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370 in the Indian Ocean has found on the ocean floor a 19th century shipwreck instead of the supposedly ill-fated plane.
The deep tow system of the Fugro Equator has detected a cluster of small sonar contacts of potential interest near the so-called 7th arc before another Fugro ship was dispatched to look more closely into the discovery.
The second Fugro ship subsequently dispatched underwater drones to investigate the potential lead. When the drones came back, the images that they brought forth were that of an anchor as well as a destroyed hull of a ship. The wreck was also found to be lying on the ocean floor at a depth of 3,900 meters.
There are plenty of credible leads which the ATSB ignored because they did not fit their satellite tracking theory. These debris impacted 425nm south of the current seabed search and ATSB believe their theory is more valid than actual evidence
It is the investigation which lacks credibility.
There is also $2.5 billion of unclaimed insurance cover for MH370 search & recovery. The Australian Government refuses to claim insurance money to reimburse Australian taxpayers for the cost.
Two objects, one 80ft (24m) and another 75ft (22.5m) were sighted with 122 further objects floating between them. French satellite technicians noted these objects had an extremely high refractive index like polished metal. About 124km SSW another patch of 300+ objects were also spotted by Malaysian officials on the JIT committee demanded that the JACC ground search planes and shift the search away further north.
When such obvious clues are ignored there is something seriously wrong with the investigation.
