MH370 overlooked clue: Twelve years after Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 disappeared, an old acoustic clue is raising fresh questions about whether investigators may have spent years searching in the wrong part of the Indian Ocean.
The Boeing 777 vanished on March 8, 2014, after its transponder stopped identifying the aircraft on civilian radar. But the plane continued communicating with an Inmarsat satellite for several hours. Timing and frequency data from those contacts suggested that MH370 had flown south into the Indian Ocean before ending near a curved line of possible locations known as the “seventh arc,” as per a report.
