MH370 investigators make public statement
Investigators searching for missing Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 announced today they are working on new safety recommendations following the disappearance of the flight exactly two years ago.
MH370 went missing en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board.
Despite an extensive search of the southern Indian Ocean where the aircraft is believed to have come down, nothing of the fuselage has been found and investigators appear no closer to concluding what happened to the flight.
A part of the wing was found on Reunion island and a second suspected piece of debris was found last week in Mozambique.
It will be analysed in Australia by investigators and representatives from Boeing to determine whether it came from the missing aircraft.
Lead investigator Kok Soo Choon said in a statement on state TV today: "At this time, the team is continuing to work towards finalising its analysis, findings, conclusions and safety recommendations on eight relevant areas associated with the disappearance of flight MH370 based on relevant information."
