The Joint Agency Coordination Centre has dismissed the possibility that debris found in the Bay of Bengal is from the missing Flight MH370. Search coordinators said they continue to believe the plane came down in the southern Indian Ocean off Australia.
An Australian geophysical survey company "GeoResonance" said it has found what it believes is wreckage from a plane in the Bay of Bengal and it should be investigated, but the possibility was dismissed by search coordinators.
The Bay of Bengal is located between India and Myanmar, thousands of miles from the current search area. The company said it has passed on the information to Malaysian Airlines and the Malaysian and Chinese embassies to Australia on March 31st, and to the JACC on April 4th.
The Australia-led search team said it was relying on information from satellite and other data to determine the missing aircraft’s location, but the location in the GeoResonance report was not within that search arc.
