MH370: Investigators to meet in Paris to coordinate work
The discovery of a Boeing 777 wing fragment on the Indian Ocean island La Reunion, has breathed new life into the investigation for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370.
Malaysian Transport Minister Liow Tiong Lai told a press conference that the wreckage found is “confirmed to be the flaperon from a Boeing triple seven” but he added that it’s not clear whether it is from flight MH370 saying “I want to emphasise that is yet to be verified.” Meanwhile, authorities on La Reunion said that new debris found on Sunday did not belong to the aircraft.
French and Malaysian aviation experts are expected to meet in Paris later on Monday to coordinate their work.
The flaperon is being analysed at a military laboratory in Toulouse which specialises in plane crash investigations and their conclusions are expected on Wednesday.
