Mh370

British Aerospace engineer Richard Godfrey has completed an analysis that confirms that the latest debris found is almost certainly from MH370. Subscribe to the Airlineratings.com newsletter to get the relevant news first In December last year, wreck hunter Blaine Gibson was taken to a new piece of MH370 debris which was identified as part of the undercarriage door system. However, some disputed this and said it was from a yacht. Now Mr Godfrey, who has led the revolutionary new tracking of M370 with WSPRnet technology, has completed a detailed analysis of the debris found in Madagascar and says it is from a “from Boeing aircraft and cannot be from marine provenance.” Mr Godfrey says “the key difference is the lightning protection system used on Boeing aircraft with composite materials, which is fundamentally different to the lightning protection system used in marine applications with composite materials. Boeing components made with composite materials which are exposed to lightning strikes incorporate a layer of MicroGrid wire mesh manufactured by Dexmet Corporation. This is the case in the latest item of debris found in Madagascar.” Mr Godfrey adds that “a significant proportion of the airplane structure of a Boeing 777 is made of composite materials to reduce weight and improve resistance to corrosion. Composite materials are layers (or plies) of high-strength fibres (carbon fibre or fibreglass) in a mixture of plastic resin. Aircraft components made of composite mater...

Flight MH370 debris suggests pilot lowered plane's landing gear and crashed deliberately, report says A new report published by British engineer Richard Godfrey and American MH370 wreckage hunter Blaine Gibson, claims the piece of debris most likely penetrated from the inside by the jet's disintegrating engines. A newly discovered piece of debris from flight MH370 suggests the pilot lowered the plane's landing gear just before it plunged into the ocean, supporting the theory that the aircraft was crashed deliberately. The Boeing 777 component, also known as a trunnion door, was found in the possession of a Madagascan fisherman 25 days ago - becoming the first physical evidence suggesting one of the pilots purposefully tried to destroy and sink the "The fact that the damage was from the interior side to the exterior side... leads to the conclusion that the landing gear was highly extended on impact, which in turn supports the conclusion that there was an active pilot until the end of the flight," the report reads. It added: "The level of damage with fractures on all sides and the extreme force of the penetration right through the debris item leads to the conclusion that the end of the flight was in a high-speed dive designed to ensure the aircraft broke up into as many pieces as possible.

Voice370, a group of relatives of the people on board, are urging Malaysian authorities to back another search by Ocean Infinity. “While the next of kin of the passengers and crew on board attempt to rebuild our lives, the threat to global aviation safety remains a live issue,” the group said in a statement. “As long as we remain in the dark about what happened to MH370, we will never be able to prevent a similar tragedy. Accordingly, we believe that it is a matter of paramount importance that the search for MH370 is carried out to its completion.” Oliver Plunkett, the chief executive of Ocean Infinity, told Guardian Australia the company was “actively engaged” in trying to get the search restarted. “At this stage, we are unable to say definitively when a new search will take place as discussion...

• • • • A new documentary released Wednesday by Sky News Australia adds fuel to speculation that a doomed Malaysian Airlines flight was brought down by its own pilot. In “MH370: The Final Search,” aviation writer and former commercial pilot Mike Glynn said he believes a “There’s no reason to do that,” Glynn said of the circular flight path off the coast of Sumatra, “My theory has always been that it was the captain who is responsible,” he said, suggesting the 22 minutes were a time of “possible negotiation” between the pilot, Capt. Zaharie Ahmad Shah, and someone else. Shah’s motive, Glynn theorized, was anger over the arrest of his distant relative and Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim. Another expert interviewed in the documentary questioned that motive, however. Former commercial pilot Mike Glyn claimed that the plane’s 20-minute holding pattern is proof the captain was responsible.
