Australia: Possible Objects From Missing Malaysia Jet

Australia's prime minister says.

Gotta trust the Aussies......
At least one plane on site.... many more coming in
Updates as they come....
Military planes from Australia, the U.S. and New Zealand are searching for two objects spotted by satellite in the southern Indian Ocean that could be related to the missing Malaysia Airlines flight, Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said Thursday.

Abott told Parliament in Canberra that an Orion and three additional aircraft, including a U.S. P-8 are involved in the search. Abbott cautioned, however, that the task of locating these objects will be difficult and "it may turn out that they are not related to the search for flight MH370."

An Australian search and rescue official said the planes have been sent to check on two objects that could be debris from the Boeing 777 jetliner that were spotted on satellite imagery in the Indian Ocean about 1,550 miles southwest of Perth.

#3 Looks like about 35 or 40 degrees south latitude. Weather can be rough but I think they found it. Lines up very well with projected path.

#4 It is in the right place, but doesn't look like a piece of a plane to me. Hopefully, we will find out tomorrow.

#5 Looks like a CG/Navy recruitment video.
Last 1 sec shows debris.
Mark it as a jettisoned shipping container.

#6 If the debris is from the MH370, the on-board fire and crew/passenger asphyxiation theory obviously gains credibility. Bangkok Billy was the first to dismiss the complex Taliban or AQ hijack theory. Hopefully we call all dismiss the terrorism theory soon.

#7 I couldn't disagree more with Besoeker's assertion. How in the world could that plane be THAT FAR off of the filed/planned flight course and yet so many be so eager to simply wish this away as a "on board fire"??? There was no distress call, the transponders were intentionally turned off, the plane DIVERTED from the planned course by a minimum of a 90 degree angle, and then quietly said "Good Night". Sorry, but I'm not willing to chalk all of that up to a "on-board fire".

Good grief.

#8 I certainly respect your opinion Crusader, but I surely hope you are incorrect.
