unsolved mystery

being more exact, son 4 years, 3 months and 20 days since the crash of flight MH370 happened, Apparently, at the southern tip of the Indian Ocean.

The main search tasks were suspended in January 2017 and the 29 May 2018, the last company to keep the search private, Ocean Infinity, also completed its search.

The million-dollar search tasks where the main technological powers of the world participated, they did not bear fruit and no additional clues could be rescued from the seabed.

No more than 3 parts or pieces, confirmed that they belonged to the plane, were found in various locations in the Indian Ocean, mainly on the Seychelles Island, but these did not help to clear up the mystery, otherwise, generated more questions.

Malaysia Airlines MH370 flight timeline

The Boeing 777-2H6ER with registration 9M-MRO, msn serial number 28420 and with a capacity to 282 passengers, took off from Kuala Lumpur International Airport at 00:21 local Malaysia time (16:41 zulu).

With almost 12 years after its first flight, disappeared from radar and air traffic control at coordinates 6°55′15″N 103°34′43″E, at a point in the South China Sea, while under Vietnam radar surveillance.

The transponder signal disappeared moments before passing the Ho Chi Minh control center, China 35 thousand feet high and at 02:40 in the morning was officially listed as missing with 12 crew and 227 passengers on board.

The plane had to land at 06:30 am at your final destination, Beijing Capital International Airport in China and at no time did the plane emit any emergency or trouble signals during the flight.

After years of his disappearance and search without results, dozens of rumors circulated on the Internet. kidnappings, UFOs, landing in the jungle or a terrorist attack made the front page of the media in the world, but none was ever confirmed.

After 4 years, the final report of this accident was made public and although it does not offer causes, reasons or what exactly happened to the plane, It is a way to put final closure for relatives, authorities and airline.

Final Report Malaysia Airlines MH370

The "final" report, made public by the Malaysian authorities has more than 1.500 explanatory and detailed pages about the chain of situations that led to the accident and disappearance of MH370, but without being able to know the exact causes and the place where the main fuselage of the plane is located.

The report indicates that the plane could only have made the off-route course changes and rapid turns if the plane was under manual control of one of the pilots..

the chief investigator, The doctor. Kok Soo Chon, said the plane could not have been on autopilot during the first turn.

"We performed several simulated tests that included flying high and low in the simulator, "The only way the plane could have turned was if it was in manual mode.", Dr said. Kok. «The turn back cannot be attributed to an anomalous system. It has been established that the air return was performed under manual control, not autopilot. The loss of communications was probably due to the systems being manually shut down or having their power interrupted..

Investigators added that they cannot determine if the plane was controlled by anyone other than the pilots., refusing to rule out third party interference in the plane's disappearance. Kok said that, although some evidence "irresistibly points to unlawful interference, such as the cessation of communications and the return of the manual», no terrorist group has claimed responsibility.

«We also cannot exclude the possibility of unlawful interference by a third party. And based on the military record, "There was no evidence of a rapid change in altitude and speed to indicate that MH370 deliberately evaded radar.", Kok said. "We cannot determine with certainty the reasons why the aircraft deviated from its planned and filed route.".

The report, However, was able to refute the theory that the plane was shot down as part of a suicide mission or due to mechanical failure.

"There was no record of any malfunction or defect in the plane that could have contributed to the disappearance.", Kok said.

«We have examined the pilot and the first officer and we are quite satisfied with their training, with your training, with your mental health. "We do not believe it was an event committed by the pilot.", Kok continued. «I don't rule out anything, but there were two psychiatrists on my team and they were responsible for examining the audio recordings of the pilot and they concluded that there was no anxiety or stress in the recording, It was normal, and also recorded the CCTV footage. The psychiatrists did not find any significant behavioral changes in the communications «.

The report also dismissed speculation about information found in a flight simulator in the MH370 captain's home.. The simulator has evidence that the pilot had flown a route “initially similar” to the route MH370 ultimately took in its simulator. The researchers concluded that there are no implications or suspicions about this information..

Another disproved theory was that which supposed that the cargo in the plane, that included 4.566 kg of mangosteens and 221 kg of lithium ion batteries, had caused a fire or explosion on board.

"This was highly unlikely aboard MH370 with a comparatively short flight duration and under controlled conditions.", the report said.

Kok said it's too early to call this the final report., as no remains or victims have been found despite several people close to the matter labeling the report as such.

«As far as we are concerned, "We have done our job and the search is not our area.", Kok added.

After reviewing all the available evidence, the team of researchers cannot determine the real reason for the disappearance of MH370. The report did not give any final word on where the plane's wreckage is..

The investigation also identified irregularities in how the pilots used their radios.. For instance, when closing communication with Malaysia ATC for the last time, MH370 pilots did not read the assigned frequency to change as they passed into the new airspace.

The report also found that the four emergency locator transmitters (ELT) of MH370 did not function properly and did not emit normal distress signals that could have helped find the aircraft.

"Difficulties have been reported with ELT signals if a plane enters the water", the report said.

As a last resort, the report did not present any new information and concluded that the full truth cannot be determined until the plane is found.

«We cannot deny that there was a return. We do not rule out any possibility «, Kok said. "We are not of the opinion that it could be an event committed by the pilot. In conclusion, "The team cannot determine the actual cause of MH370's disappearance.".

"The disappearance of MH370 and the search effort are unprecedented in the history of commercial aviation", the report said. “Improvements must be made to ensure this type of event is identified as early as possible.”, and there are mechanisms to track an aircraft that does not follow its submitted flight plan for any reason..

To close, the researchers indicated:

"It's not over until MH370 is found.". Therefore, there can be no final report until MH370 is found and this can be achieved The search must continue «.

Key points

• Despite the report of 1.500 pages, the final result indicates that investigators were unable to determine what happened to the Malaysian Airlines plane.
• Investigation leader Kok Soo Chon stated that, the diversion of the aircraft was due to the result of failures in the system, but that the turn in mid-flight was done manually.
• The researchers indicated that they put on the table all the theories and rumors of the Internet, but that only 7 could be probable cause.
• Although the plane was not found, the researchers identified a number of errors in the process, where is included the service of air traffic control, which did not start the emergency process on time, how long it took to start search and rescue.
• Both pilot and co-pilot were properly rested and without any apparent financial stress., emotional or psychological.
• Too, it was stated that unlawful interference cannot be ruled out, given to the cut in communications and manual diversion made.
• Although the report was classified as final, the authorities indicated that it is not necessarily the definitive one and the search could continue later.

What could have happened on Malaysia Airlines flight MH370?

theories there are many, but the most realistic and probable are the following:

• Lack of oxygen: sudden depressurization of the aircraft or a pre-deliberate affectation of the system could have generated the entire situation on board.
• Suicide or intentional accident: either from one of the pilots in command or from a third party who could have entered the cockpit.
• remote kidnapping: something that little has been said, but according to some experts, could be a cause. A remote hijacking with current technology is possible and could have led the plane to the crash..
• Terrorist attack: there has been talk of illegal groups from China or other countries, but no one has taken responsibility for what happened.
• suspicious passengers: 2 passengers boarded the plane with false passports of Iranian nationality, but the authorities indicated that they had no terrorist connection.
• catastrophic failure of airplane: It's one of the possibilities, but it was discarded since no system like ACARS showed failures or problems in the plane.

Industry Improvements

New regulations are being implemented in the wake of the MH370 incident. From 2021, new aircraft must have systems installed that transmit their locations every minute while in trouble.

According to the regulations adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization, airlines must track aircraft every 15 minutes from november.

This accident will allow aviation to continue improving its procedures and technology, in order to avoid a case similar to this, it will happen again.
