Malaysia Airlines Latest News: Passengers Suffocated, New Search In August At $60M

Malaysia Airlines latest news is now focusing on what happened to the passengers of the fallen Flight MH370. According to investigators, the latest Malaysia Airlines latest news is that passengers of the Malaysian jet most likely suffocated and that the crew was unconscious by the time the jet cruised and crashed while on autopilot.

The Malaysia Airlines latest news was taken from a recently released 55-page report Thursday by Australian officials. The report on the Malaysia Airlines latest news is a new take on what really happened to the missing jet as its focus is on what went on with the passengers and crew of the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370.

The 55-page report which has the Malaysia Airlines latest news was concluded by the Australian Transport Safety Board as outlined by investigators. The report ended with the conclusion of passengers and crew dying of suffocation after investigators compared the conditions on the flight with previous disasters. However, the conclusions as cited in the report which held the Malaysia Airlines latest news have no new evidence from inside the jetliner.

According to Reuters, the report only narrowed down the possible final resting place of the missing Flight MH370 jet from thousands of possible routes. The final resting place was narrowed down while investigators also noted the absence of communications, the steady flight path and a several other abnormalities which became highlights during the course of the flight.

The ATSB report said of the Malaysia Airlines latest news, Given these observations, the final stages of the unresponsive crew/hypoxia event type appeared to best fit the available evidence for the final period of MH370's flight when it was heading in a generally southerly direction.'

The analysis on Malaysia Airlines latest news of the situation of passengers and crew aboard the plane pre-crash came 100 days since after the Boeing 777 crashed on March 8. The Flight MH370 Malaysia Airlines flight carried with it 239 passengers and crew while on its way to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur. According to the Economic Times, the report with the Malaysia Airlines latest news suggests that the plane most likely crashed farther south into the Indian Ocean than previously thought. According to Australian officials, the report's findings have led them to announce a shift in the search area which is farther south than the prior one.

Through little evidence gathered by investigators of the Malaysia Airlines latest news on the passengers, they have found out that it is highly possible that the plane was deliberately diverted thousands of kilometres from its scheduled route before it eventually plunged into the Indian Ocean.

In April, the search was diverted because of a series of pings which search teams thought could have come from the plane's black box recorders. These pings were also from the place where satellite data located the plane last.

Because of the pings, officials approved the search area to be expanded a month after the original search.

Australian Deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss told reporters in Canberra said, 'The new priority area is still focused on the seventh arc, where the aircraft last communicated with satellite. We are now shifting our attention to an area further south along the arc.'

Truss added, 'It is highly, highly likely that the aircraft was on autopilot otherwise it could not have followed the orderly path that has been identified through the satellite sightings.'

According to the report with the Malaysia Airlines latest news, the next phase of the search for the missing Malaysia plane will most probably begin in August and take about a year to finish. The search will cover around 2,000 km west of Perth, a stretch of the ocean which is reportedly frequented by huge storms.

CBC reports that the 60,000 sq km search will cost $60 million or more, which is the most expensive search in aviation history to date.

Malaysia Airlines latest news of the new search is that two vessels, one Chinese and one from Dutch engineering company Fugro will be mapping the seas with depths of 5,000 metres. On Monday, reports say that a tender to find a commercial operator the sea search will be closed.
