Flight 370 was en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing when it disappeaered from radar.
In an operational update this week, Australia said three ships continued to hunt for the plane but winter weather had set in, with waves up to 12m and high winds hampering them.
Where possible debris from flight MH 370 has been discovered.
“It shows they’re looking in the right ocean that’s about it”, Dell said. The boat operator called him over after spotting a piece of debris with the words “NO STEP” written on it.
The debris was believed to have been from a section of the right-hand horizontal stabilizer, part of the small wings located on plane’s tail. The piece had rivet holes along the edge and the number 676EB stamped on it, convincing him he had found a piece of an aircraft.
It is however, still uncertain whether the global team will expand its search for the missing plane in those areas. Malaysia and French authorities confirmed the flaperon was from the aircraft.

“Once I have gone through the report, we will decide whether to allow Rayani Air to continue their operations”, he said, adding that the report will be submitted to him soon. Until that point, all the debris that had washed ashore had come from the plane’s exterior.
Meanwhile, the second part was determined to be an interior panel from the main cabin, given its decorative laminate, and associated with a closet near Door R1.
Authorities had predicted that any debris from the plane that isn’t on the ocean floor would eventually be carried by currents to the east coast of Africa.
