>> Joe: Sad news as the Malaysian Prime Minister has made an announcement regarding Malaysia
Airlines flight 370 which went missing on March 8th with 239 people on board.
>> Elliott: Using new analysis of satellite data from China and France, Malaysia is ruling
out the possibility that anyone on the flight survived and say the plane met its end somewhere
in the Indian Ocean.
>> Joe: The Prime Minister revealed, “Investigators concluded the flight flew along the southern
corridor and that its last position was in the middle of the Indian Ocean west of Perth.
This is a remote location far from any possible landing sites.
It is therefore with deep sadness and regret that I must inform you that according to new
data, Flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean”
>> Elliott: The families of the passengers received a text message saying “We have
to assume beyond any reasonable doubt that MH370 has been lost and that none of those
on board have survived…”
it later went on to say “all evidence suggests the plane went down in the Southern Indian
Ocean.”
>> Joe: Now, there’s something to be said about the importance of getting information
to the families as quickly as possible, but to deliver this kind of news through a text
seems awfully impersonal and mechanical during a situation that you would like to see handled
more delicately.
>> Elliott: As of now the US Navy is flying a black box detector over in hopes of being
able to recover the flights final minutes to give further information of what exactly
happened.
Although we now know the results, the reasons as to why the plane went down in the first
place are still a mystery to authorities.
>> Joe: This is a sad story, but now, at least, it has an ending.
While the wreckage has not been recovered yet, there have been suspicious objects in
the Indian Ocean recovered by Australian and Chinese military planes involved in the search.
>> Elliott: All of our thoughts and prayers here at SourceFed go out to those affected
by the plane crash and we’ll be sure to keep you updated on any further developments.
I’m Elliott Morgan.
