MH370 : Inside storage unit where doomed Malaysia Airlines parts are kept

MH370 : Inside storage unit where doomed Malaysia Airlines parts are kept.

nvestigators have given unprecedented access to the evidence room which contains pieces from the aeroplane which vanished carrying 239 passengers from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, 2014. A special episode of documentary 60 Minutes will give a detailed insight into the aviation mystery and analysis of the recovered parts of the Boeing 77. Since its disappearance, only three pieces of the aircraft have ever been found, which include a two-metre long wing part known as a flaperon.

The Channel Nine production will be aired on Sunday and comes just days before the five year anniversary since the MH370 flight disappeared.

The families of those onboard the missing aircraft maintain debris can still be found and just a few months ago claimed there were five more pieces located off the island of Madagascar.

Malaysian authorities state the recovered parts were “most likely” from the stricken airliner.

The Governments of Australia, Malaysia and China ended the official search in January 2017 after a vast hunt using a deep-sea vessel in the southern Indian ocean.

Investigation experts were also unable to reach a definitive conclusion as to what might have happened during its final moments.

A private search by Ocean Infinity signed by Malaysia began in January 2018 but the hunt came to an end just five months later.

Grace Subathirai Nathan, whose mother Anne Daisy was on the plane, said: “The fact that debris is still washing up now means that the investigation should still be live. It shouldn’t be closed.”

Her father V.R Nathan, added: “We want the government to continue searching for these debris and piece them together like a jigsaw puzzle so that we can get some clue as to what happened to the plane.”

The documentary will also feature an extraordinary meeting between Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir bin Mohamad and a family member of one of the passengers on the flight.

It will be the first time the Malaysian PM has met relative from MH370.

Danica Weeks, whose husband Paul was a passenger, told Channel Nine: “This is it. This is my last ditch effort.

“This isn’t just about 239 people on a Boeing 777, this is about eight million people every day that get on a flight.”
