Debris suspected to be from MH370 washed up on Madagascar coast
Malaysian Transport Minister Anthony Loke has just said that the agency is considering a proposal to resume the search for the missing MH370 plane, in which the US company Ocean Infinity will consider the latest clues.
Accordingly, the proposal will include hydroacoustic signal information that Cardiff University (UK) has just discovered about the area under the sea that is likely the location of the MH370 crash.
"Any new information will certainly be reviewed by Ocean Infinity, the company responsible and involved in the search mission," the New Straits Times quoted Mr Loke as saying.
"They have a submersible to find and detect the location of the crashed plane. Actually, we have discussed with Ocean Infinity and they have proposed to resume the search," the official said at the launching event of a cargo ship at Kelang port (Selangor state) on June 22.
Unexpected discovery of signal that could help find flight MH370
Previously, a research team at Cardiff University discovered a 6-second signal, which coincides with the time frame when the plane may have crashed into the sea, recorded at the Cape Leeuwin hydroacoustic station in Western Australia.
The Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 plane went missing on March 8, 2014 with 239 people on board, becoming one of the biggest mysteries in aviation history.
The study looked at a number of factors such as the impact of rough seas at the time and how an incident involving a Boeing 777-200 aircraft could have produced sound that traveled through water to microphones on the ocean floor.
The search for MH370 in the Indian Ocean covered an area of 120,000 square kilometers and cost about 605 million ringgit (VND3,268 billion), before stopping in January 2017.
In 2018, Ocean Infinity began a three-month "no find, no charge" search covering about 112,000 square kilometers of the southern Indian Ocean, but there was no discovery of the mysteriously missing MH370.
