Private Search for MH370 Ends Without Result
While the official hunt for the missing jet ended last year, American company Ocean Infinity continued to trawl about 37,000 square miles of ocean using small submarines until today. The Malaysia Airlines plane disappeared in March 2014 with 239 people aboard. “We will always remain hopeful that one day the aircraft will be located,” said Australia’s transport minister. Ocean Infinity’s search was unpaid, but with a prospective $70 million reward from Malaysia for finding the wreckage — which could confirm or deny theories that the pilot intentionally downed the plane.
