Two pieces of floating debris that could be from missing
Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 have been spotted in the Indian Ocean hundreds
of miles south west of Australia
this morning. John Young of the Australian Maritime Safety Authority said one
object spotted by a satellite was 78ft long and was the most promising lead in
the search for the Boeing 777 that has been missing for 12 days. Four aircraft
have been sent to investigate the sighting in the circled area around 1553
miles off the coast of Perth .
Mr Young said merchant ship HMAS Success would concentrate on pinpointing the
debris and not continue searching the rest of the southern zone until it had
been found or ruled out. He added that poor visibility could hamper both air
and satellite efforts.
