Another piece of wreckage has emerged which may be from missing Malaysia Airlines passenger jet MH370.

The metre-long metal sheet was found on a beach on the ­African nation of Mozambique.
It will be flown to Australia within days for examination by local and Malaysian aviation officials and other international ­specialists to assess whether it is part of MH370.

The Boeing 777 disappeared on March 8, 2014, while en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people aboard.

Qatar Airways chief Akbar Al Baker yesterday urged aviation regulators to do more to find the plane so that the cause of its disappearance could be investigated.

“I have insisted that IATA (International Air Transport ­Association) should play a more active role in forcing regulators to find this aircraft,” said Mr Al Baker, who sits on the IATA Board of Governors.

“Finding this aeroplane is ­extremely important for the aviation industry. We cannot allow planes to just disappear in the 21st century and just look the other way and forget about it.

“We need to find the cause and what happened to this aeroplane.”

The Australian Transport Safety Bureau said the discovery of the piece of debris ­fitted with its estimates of where wreckage from the airliner was likely to have drifted to if it crashed off Western Australia in the southern Indian Ocean. - suspected BB

The only other piece of wreckage found so far was on the French Indian Ocean island of Reunion, which lies on the same drift path.

Mr Al Baker said the discovery of more debris that may have come from the missing aircraft was not enough to satisfy him with an answer to the mystery.

“We hope that this part will confirm that this aircraft has gone down,” he said. “However that does not give me as a CEO of an airline satisfaction that we have the answer.

“We know the aeroplane went down ... but we don’t know what happened to it,’’ he said.

“We need to know what happened to it and how the aeroplane must be tracked.”

Mr Al Baker said Qatar Airways’ fleet of 178 aircraft were all tracked 24 hours a day, giving constant updates on their locations.

“Every aircraft that takes off from any airport is tracked at our operations control centre and the aircraft and ground systems integrate with each other every 15 seconds,’’ he said.

“If an aircraft deviated from its charted flight path we would get an alert within five seconds.

“All this is implemented by us to make sure we should never get into a situation where we have an aircraft that has disappeared and we don’t know where it is.”

Well Al Bakar & IATA could help by creating & contributing to a search fund to continue the MH370 search effort, preferably run by anyone else but Beaker's mob..

thornbird - Here we go, a bit of whatever? has washed up in the Mozambique channel, and the pundits are off the leash, lead by GT of the 777 simulator fame and a new entrant in the "Expert" criteria RB, probably the biggest crook to grace the annuls of GA embuggerance, then again he's a lawyer so what else would you expect, money and lawyers have a natural affinity, the media are throwing money at anything, Ron would be grovelling for a piece of it like a starving rat.


What I cannot get my head around is why Beaker is still in the job??...has the man no shame???or is he being protected by a Higher being, a Murky Mandarin perhaps??



The question of course, now he's been outed as an incompetent, where do they put him? ASA has run out of jobs since Wodger joined the party. Now there's one for the next BRB Quiz night, where will beaker bob up next? and how long before he screws up again?
