发帖数: 29576 | 1 Vietnamese aircraft spotted what they suspected was one of the doors
belonging to the ill-fated Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 on Sunday, as
troubling questions emerged about how two passengers managed to board the
Boeing 777 using stolen passports.
The discovery comes as officials consider the possibility that the plane
disintegrated mid-flight, a senior source told Reuters.
The state-run Thanh Nien newspaper cited Lt. Gen. Vo Van Tuan, deputy chief
of staff of Vietnam's army, as saying searchers in a low-flying plane had
spotted an object suspected of being a door from the missing jet. It was
found in waters about 56 miles south of Tho Chu island, in the same area
where oil slicks were spotted Saturday.
"From this object, hopefully (we) will find the missing plane," Tuan said.
Thanh Nien said two ships from the maritime police were heading to the site.
An authority told Reuters that it was too dark to be certain the object was
part of the missing plane, and that more aircraft would be dispatched to
investigate the site in waters off southern Vietnam in the morning.
Rahman said that the search area has been increased to 50 nautical miles,
from 20, and includes 34 aircraft and 40 ships. Aircraft are conducting 12-
hour searches, until sundown, while ships are scheduled to continue the
search throughout the night. |
