Flight 370: New Information

New information, data, points-the-finger at Flight 370 flew faster than first concluded, and ran out of fuel faster. So, a new area has to be searched, 680 miles to the north-east.

"We moved on" from the old search area, where pilots looked for Flight 370 about a week, Australian Maritime Safety Authority.

The change was in response to new information, Australian Maritime Safety Authority explained.

Where is the new information coming from?

The new information comes from the continuous analysis of radar data sent not long after Flight 370 lost communications and disappeared March 8th. Flight 370 headed to Beijing, carried 239 people and didn't stay on course after taking off from Kuala Lumpur.

The new information spells-out how Flight 370 traveled faster, used more fuel and the plane could not travel as far before ending in the Indian Ocean. Air-planes moving fast use up fuel quicker.

The hunt is on for the black boxes that will solve this real life mystery.

Without a doubt, the families are on a roller coaster of emotions.

Flight 370 Ended In Indian Ocean

All the lives of passengers on Malaysia Flight 370 are assumed lost. Days of searching on land and sea have not turned up any debris of Flight 370, while over 2 dozen countries look for sightings.

Flight 370 ended in the Indian Ocean, Prime Minister Hishammuddin Hussein.

The families can only be in a state of unrest, frustration, dashed hopes. The fact that not one piece of Flight 370 has been found, gives rise to conspiracies and rumors. Rumors like: Is the Malaysian Government telling the whole truth? Can the information be trusted? Can there be survivors?

Two new leads were discovered as the hunt for Flight 370 goes on.

The possible leads were seen in Australia, Perth. Gray and/or green debris floated as well as orange debris.

The Australian Navy supply ship HMAS Success will try to locate the debris, objects, in an attempt to determine if it could be some part of Flight 370.

Success could pick up the object(s) within the next few hours or by tomorrow morning at the latest, Minister Hishammuddin Hussein. "It is currently the only vessel in the search area."

#Missing Flight 370

The search for Missing Flight 370 is being done on land and sea by over 2 dozen countries. The fate of the missing plane is unknown, a real life mystery.

There's an effort to piece-by-piece together where the plane can't be, or where the jumbo plane is not.

Missing Flight 370 never appeared on its civilian radars, and would have been regarded as a threat had it, Pakistan commented.

The investigation of a flight simulator found in pilot Zaharie Ahmad Shah's home is still going on.

Mohammed Khairul Amri Selamat, 29-year-old Malaysian civil aviation engineer, worked for a private jet charter company, was on board.

At this point, officials are sifting into the lives, back-grounds, of all those on board, passengers and crew too.

Officials are looking closely at anyone with aviation knowledge that had any connection to Missing Flight 370.

"The fact that there was no distress signal, no ransom notes, no parties claiming responsibility, there's always hope," Malaysian Defense Minister Hishammuddin Husseim.

It's possible, but likely, someone would do this as a test, Former Deputy Director of the CIA Mike Morell.

Flight 370's Transponder

It wasn't long after missing Malaysia Flight 370 took-off from Kuala Lumpur that the communications system became disabled, the plane's transponder was turned off, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak explained Saturday.

The transponder is a tracking device, radio transmitter in the cock-pit that works with ground radar. It allows radar pinging to help air traffic controllers, on the ground, see what direction a plane is going and it's speed.

"All right, good night."

They were the final words heard from Flight 370's Transponder.

Questions are being asked about those final words.

Who spoke them? The captain? Co-pilot? What were the circumstances surrounding the words? Could someone had forced either the captain or co-pilot to say them? Possibly, there were others in the cock-pit that should not have been there?

Washington officials suspect it was one of the pilots, and one or both have involvement in Flight 370's plight, disappearance.

Someone, for unknown reasons, changed the flight's course by the time of the last spoken words.

Investigators searched the homes of the pilot and co-pilot, because they're looking into all possibilies for a clue of what could have happened to the plane. Why it happened?

The pilot had a flight stimulator that was taken by investigators along with other items.

A few more counties joined in the search for Flight 370, up from 14 countries.

Two names on the passenger manifest, of missing Malaysia flight 370, had reported stolen passports in Thailand by an Italian man and an Austrian man, per foreign governments.

This sent-up red flags, concerns, for officials about possible terrorism, drug related activity, as well as other scenarios. Although, authorities found no evidence to connect the missing passports to any scenerio.

Investigations are under-way.
