Flight MH370 disappeared in 2014 with 239 people on board while en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing
A U. S. sea exploration company has dispatched a vessel to resume the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, which disappeared in March 2014 with 239 people on board while en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
The aircraft, which changed direction suddenly over the South China Sea and ceased radio contact, is at the heart of one of modern aviation’s greatest mysteries. It was last spotted by radar near the northern tip of Sumatra and may have crashed in an area about 1,500 kilometers west of Australia, according to information from a communications satellite.
The exploration company, Ocean Infinity, said Wednesday that one its ships was headed to the search area. It also said it expected the Malaysian government to award a contract to resume the search in the coming days.
