The search area ranges from Kazakhstan to Australia: China has expanded the investigation into flight MH370 to its own territory. In southern Australia flight corridor focused mission together on an area in the Indian Ocean, the size of Spain and Portugal.
China has the search for the missing plane of Malaysia Airlines taken at the north-west frontier. One of the calculated on the basis of satellite imagery and radar data flight corridors is proceeding on the far west of China, the Chinese Ambassador Huang Huikang said, according to the state news agency Xinhua.

Whether the Chinese efforts bear fruit, may be doubted. Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan have disclosed that they have no evidence that the aircraft could have penetrated their airspace.
In other possible flight corridor over Indonesia in the southern Indian Ocean, Australia has taken over the coordination of the search. Now They concentrated on a 600,000-square-kilometer corridor in the southern Indian Ocean, shared with the Australian authorities. Previously, the search area had covers 19 million square kilometers. The reduction of the search area is based on several assumptions, including the speed of the aircraft, it said.
Even the smaller search area is still as large as the Iberian Peninsula. This makes clear how difficult the search in the waters is likely to be, particularly because of strong currents and fierce waves today.
The Boeing 777 disappeared and a half weeks after the launch in Kuala Lumpur. The fate of the 239 people on board, of which two thirds are Chinese, is completely uncertain. 26 countries are participating in the search for the aircraft, as well as NASA.
