Two pieces of debris ‘almost certainly’ from flight MH370

Two pieces of plane debris found washed up on beaches in Mozambique – one discovered last December and the other this February – almost certainly came from missing Malaysia Airlines flight 370, the Australian Transport Safety Bureau said today.

One was a flap track fairing segment, the other, found about 135 miles from the first, was a horizontal stabiliser panel segment.

A report said they were both ‘almost certainly’ from the missing Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777, registered 9M-MRO.

The aircraft disappeared while en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, 2014.

Earlier this month some debris which is thought to be part of a bulkhead from inside the cabin was discovered at Rodriguez island near Mauritius, however it has yet to be examined.
