Kuala Lumpur: It is reported that Malaysian flight MH370, which disappeared eight years ago, was deliberately crashed into the sea. The experts came to this conclusion following undergoing scientific examination of the wreckage found 25 days ago. The wreckage was found in a fisherman’s house in Madagascar. The fisherman was unknowingly keeping the aircraft debris.
The first evidence confirming that the plane was intentionally destroyed has now been received. British engineer Richard Godfrey and Balin Gibson, who is searching for the wreckage of MH 370, informed regarding this. According to the Independent, British engineer Richard Godfrey said that the indication was obtained from cracks and scratches on the plane’s landing gear and parts of the door. The experts concluded that the effort was on the part of the pilot to ensure that it would be completely disintegrated following falling into the sea.
The four semi-parallel cracks above the door have led experts to conclude that the plane was brought down because of the failure of one of the plane’s two engines. Experts are of the opinion that the landing of the plane in such a way as to completely split the plane and sink the plane soon confirms this.
In the event of an emergency landing in water, the landing gear is not lowered, as doing so can cause the aircraft to break into pieces and quickly sink the aircraft. Experts also say that this will hamper the escape of passengers in any way.
The plane went missing while traveling from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, China. There were 227 passengers and 12 crew members on board. All are presumed dead. Of the 227 passengers, 153 were Chinese nationals. Malaysian pilot Zahari Shah was in control of the plane at the time of the accident. Allegations that Shah deliberately crashed the plane were initially raised, but Shah’s family and friends denied it.
