Rescuers search for weeks, with the latest technology – but of the lost flight MH370 is no trace. In some places the forces do not even know the depth of the sea. Now the area is to be measured.
The search for the missing Boeing Malaysia Airlines on the seabed in the Indian Ocean will be expanded . The said Deputy Australian Prime Minister Warren Truss after a meeting with representatives from Malaysia and China in the Australian capital Canberra.
In the suspected crash area west of Australia , the seabed had been in places never been systematically mapped . ” To get into the next phase with other underwater vehicles and sonar , may be able to search in particularly deep water , efficiently and safely , we must know more about the seabed ,” Truss said.
You do not even know exactly how deep the water at certain points in the search area is . An exact mapping is loud Truss a decisive factor in the next search phase . Perhaps ‘ll tasked to coordinate the search a private entrepreneur .
The unmanned submarine ” Bluefin 21″ stand about four weeks time , said the coordination point for the search. A submarine that can deeper than the now used ” Bluefin 21″ dive, owned by the Institute GEOMAR in Kiel.
All information gathered thus far will be reviewed again. The new search phase will cost the equivalent of about 40 million euros , reports the Reuters news agency. Truss obviously relies on a stronger commitment of the companies concerned , for example, Boeing and engine manufacturer Rolls Royce. “You should have a particular interest in MH370 ,” Truss said, ” so that they can be either convinced of their art or can do something , if aircraft technology has played a role in the accident . ” Boeing announced imagine technical expertise.
Flight MH370 had disappeared with 239 people on board on March 8 by the Malaysian radar. The Boeing 777 was en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing when about an hour after the start broke off all contact to the machine. They deviated from the planned route and flew back to Malaysia only to the west and then probably deep south over the Indian Ocean. Satellite signals define a near crash west of Australia. So far, but not a single part of debris was found. The background of his disappearance are unclear.
