MH370 Latest: Chinese Satellite Probes Cambodian Jungle for Missing Plane
By Joe Gamp/ News/ World/ Express/ express.co.uk

"CHINA has used a government-endorsed satellite firm to home in on claims that the doomed Malaysian Airlines aircraft MH370 had been located in the Cambodian Jungle.

According to Dailystar.co.uk ,technology expert Ian Wilson said he had located what he believed to be the missing flight - which disappeared suddenly on March 8, 2014.

Using Google satellite imagery, Mr Wilson claimed he had pinpointed the location of the aircraft in Cambodian jungle and said he planned to fly a helicopter to the site of the wreckage.

But following the news on Thursday, Earth observation company Space View has said it scanned the land area to prove the Briton’s claims that the aircraft was located 60km away from capital Pnom Penh.

The company, authorised by the Chinese government, has now published images that it says are the same location of what Mr Wilson believes is the missing Malaysian Airlines plane.

However, the plane that is visible in Mr Wilson’s Google Maps image is not visible in Space View’s cutting-edge satellite technology.

Because of this the Chinese tech company says it has disproved Mr Wilson’s theory.

Space View tweeted: "Stakeholders and bystanders plead Space View to shoot at the site.

"So, we found out three images, shot in 2015, 2016 and 2018 from our archive.

"Sorry, no plane found there."

But despite Space View’s own conclusion, Mr Wilson is still planning to go ahead with his helicopter trip to closely examine the co-ordinates thrown up by the Google satellite.

And although the Chinese company says it has disproved Mr Wilson’s theory, a private investigator and aerospace expert has called for the company to zoom in on the coordinates using different Satellites.

Andre Milne, CEO of Unicorn Aerospace, has challenged Space View to use its own satellite equipment to offer a second opinion....."

MH370 'Crash Site' Shock: China Deploys Satellite to Prove Plane is in Cambodian Jungle
By David Rivers/ News/ World-News/ Daily Star/ dailystar.co.uk

"CHINA has zoomed in on the Cambodian jungle after staggering claims missing flight MH370 has been spotted there.

Their mission was a response to a Google Maps sighting from tech expert Ian Wilson, exclusively revealed by Daily Star Online.

Wilson's spot shows a plane measuring 70 metres, slightly longer than the 63.7m of MH370's doomed jet but with a mysterious gap between the body and tail.

Space View – authorised by the Chinese government – has published images it says pinpoint the same spot after the Malaysian Airlines plane disappeared.

However, the co-ordinates do not match Wilson's and the snaps are captured from a markedly higher position than Google's.

In a tweet referencing Daily Star Online's story, Space View wrote: "Stakeholders and bystanders plead Space View to shoot at the site.

"So we found out three images, shot in 2015, 2016 and 2018 from our archive.

"Sorry, no plane found there."

However, Wilson is adamant that the Google Maps spot needs to be examined and is planning to visit the site using a helicopter.
Unlike the Google Earth sighting, the plane is not visible in the snaps and the company claims this rules against Wilson's theory...."

MH370 Search Team Landing Helicopter at 'Jungle Crash Site' in Race to Claim £54m Reward
By David Rivers/ News/ Latest-News/ Daily Star/ dailystar.co.uk

"A TENACIOUS truth-seeker is to fly into the Cambodian jungle on a helicopter mission after spotting what could be missing flight MH370 on Google Maps.

Tech expert Ian Wilson exclusively pinpointed the plane he claims is lying in mountainous terrain to Daily Star Online.

Investigator Andre Milne hailed his game-changing spot "significant", and urged Google to act urgently by using state-of-the-art satellite technology to revisit the site.

But British video producer Wilson is aiming to beat Google to the punch by landing a helicopter on the mystifying Google Earth site.

And what's more, the Camden resident will stake his claim for the jaw-dropping £54million prize money offered for unravelling the greatest aviation mystery of all time.

The jet measures 70metres, slightly larger than the 63.7m length of MH370's Boeing 777-200.

But in a stunning twist, there is a puzzling gap between the tail and body which could mark a fuselage breakage from a horror crash landing.

Wilson exclusively told Daily Star Online: "Just thinking about it makes want to move quickly.

"I’d like to know one way or the other and put this to bed so it doesn’t drag on.

"Google could help with that and hope they do.

"I'm in the same camp (as Milne) with regard to Google pointing a satellite at the coordinates and getting an answer, if that's possible.

"But I'd like to go sooner rather than later and really need to set aside and sort a plan."

He will fly in with his brothers and will seek help from other search parties, as well as alerting Cambodian authorities....."

MH370 Found? Map Shows New 'Plane Wreckage Site' in Shocking Discovery
By Anthony Blair/ News/ World News/ Daily Star Sunday/ dailystar.co.uk

"A SHOCK new discovery may be the remains of the missing MH370 plane, Daily Star Online can reveal.

An amateur sleuth claims he's found the remains of the Malaysian Airlines flight deep in the heart of the Cambodian jungle.

The discovery was made on the Russian online mapping service Yandex Maps.

It was found in a remote area of jungle, 62 miles north-west of the Cambodian capital Phnom Penh.

A search of Yandex Map shows the clear outline of a plane, in the Pursat province of Cambodia, facing to the west, with a red flare around its tail.

The map's scale shows the plane matches up to the Boeing 777-200 — which is 63.7m in length.

Sharing his discovery on Twitter, the user, known only as Ivan Panther, tweeted: "Found MH370 on Yandex map."

The find comes just one week after tech expert Ian Wilson claimed he had found the missing MH370 on Google Earth lying in another high-altitude part of the Cambodian jungle 60 miles west of Phnom Penh.

These two different supposed crash sites lie just 11 miles apart, either side of a range of mountains straddling the border between the provinces of Pursat and Kampong Speu....."

Plane Mystery: MH370 Search Underway in Cambodian Jungle After Sleuth Spots 'Crash Site Wreckage' on Google Maps
By Mark Hodge/ News/ The Sun/ thesun.co.uk

"A group of experts have used a helicopter to search the mountainous area on the outskirts of Phnom Penh in a bid to find the wreckage of the doomed jet.

AVIATION experts have used a helicopter to search the Cambodian jungle in a daring bid to find flight MH370 after a sleuth claimed to have spotted the wreckage online.

The missing jet vanished in March 2014 while en route to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur killing all 239 people on board.

Despite millions of pounds being spent on the unsuccessful search, British video producer Ian Wilson believes he has solved one of the greatest mysteries in aviation history by searching online.

Images from Google Maps show the outline of a large plane in a remote part of southern Cambodia – which could simply be an aircraft flying directly below the satellite which photographed it.

But with a £53million finder’s fee up for grabs, a group of experts have used a helicopter to search the area in a bid to find the infamous plane, reports the Daily Star.

Wilson believes the wreckage of the Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 is in a high-altitude, mountainous area on the outskirts of Phnom Penh.

Aviation consultant Zorba Parer, and Nara Kang, a local businessman, and reporter Michael Carr rented a chopper to scour the jungle after hearing of the Brit’s findings.

But despite searching 500 feet of the wilderness, Parer revealed they found no sign of a plane.

He said: “We tried to find any piece of plane that may have been scattered.

“But we found nothing.

"We couldn’t find a trace of aircraft or any sign of any bodies.”

Last week, China has used a space satellite to zoom in on a location in the Cambodian jungle, highlighted by Wilson....."

MH370 Team Searching ON THE GROUND With Exact Jungle Location Where 'Plane Came Down
By David Rivers/ News/ World News/ Daily Star/ dailystar.co.uk

"THE SEARCH for missing MH370 took a dramatic twist today after investigators demanded a search team visit a claimed wreckage spot on foot.

Tech expert Ian Wilson is to be airlifted to an area three miles from where he claims he has pinpointed the Malaysian Airlines flight using Google Maps.

He will then need a guide to lead him through the two-day jungle mission through the mountainous terrain west of Cambodian capital Phnom Penh.

It comes after Andre Milne – who previously declared Wilson's spot "significant" – called an earlier helicopter mission to find the missing MH370 flight "useless" because it wasn't on foot.

Milne – a private investigator and founder of Unicorn Aerospace – exclusively told Daily Star Online: "Flying over in a helicopter is virtually useless.

"It requires human insertion to the ground via a jungle penetration from above.

"Flying 'over' a deep jungle growth forest to look for an aircraft that could have been on the ground for over four years is virtually useless because of the thick vegetation that will have grown all around and over the aircraft making it impossible to see from the air....."

MH370 World Exclusive: Frantic Never-Before-Seen LAST Message Sent to Doomed Jet REVEALED
By Charlotte Ikonen/ News/ World-News/ Daily Star Sunday/ dailystar.co.uk

"MH370 was sent a final message by desperate air traffic controllers that has never been released, Daily Star Online can exclusively reveal.

The stricken jet vanished after veering south across the Indian Ocean in March 2014 while flying between Kuala Lumpur and Beijing.

Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 was carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew on the routine flight when it disappeared from the radar.

Despite two large-scale searches of the sea bed, only scattered pieces of debris have been found and the disappearance remains one of the greatest aviation mysteries of all time.

We can reveal how Malaysia's Ministry of Transport has this week released the full log of communication between MH370 and the ground.

Authorities had been accused of releasing incomplete and edited logs.

Notably, the new log contains an additional message that was sent from MAS Operations Dispatch Center (ODC) and destined for MH370.

It was sent around the time of the first unanswered phone call to the pilot Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah – who some believe deliberately crashed the plane.

The message was sent at 18:38:51 and was intended to be displayed in the cockpit on a Control Display Unit (CDU), which a pilot uses to perform tasks such as programming the flight computers.

The message was not received by the plane, and was re-sent at 18:39:52, 18:40:42, and 18:41:52, failing each time.

It is not clear why this message was left out of the official documents until now....."

MH370 Hunt to Take 10 Days as 'Crash Site' Jungle Crawling With 'TIGERS and Armed Hunters'
By Charlotte Ikonen/ News/ World-News/ Daily Star/ dailystar.co.uk

"A SEARCH of the Cambodian jungle for missing flight MH370 could take up to 10 days as the site is crawling with tigers and illegal hunters.


The Malaysia Airlines MH370 plane has been missing for four years after vanishing over the Indian Ocean.

Despite two large-scale searches of the sea bed off the coast of western Australia, only scattered pieces of debris have been found.

But a new search is under way after a Google Maps snap that some believe prove a plane had crashed in a high-altitude jungle in Cambodia.

The new development comes as Daily Star Online revealed the final messages sent to the missing plane – which until now have been kept secret.

This week the first helicopter search of the area northwest of Phnom Penh was completed by aviation experts desperate to get their hands on the £53million finder's fee.

Zorba Parer, an aviation consultant, Nara Kang, a local entrepreneur, and journalist Michael Carr rented a helicopter for a £3,000 trip into the jungle but came back empty handed.




It is feared the plane will be found only on foot – but that could take up to 10 days and would be extremely dangerous, according to locals.

Mr Parer – who used to work for NASA – said his group first launched a ground mission but had to turn around after realising the dangers.

Writing on his blog, he said: “A local advised us not to go without an accompanying passenger more than 100 metres away.

“That’s because of the wild animals like tigers.

“In the jungle area, we also heard rumours about illegal hunting practices.

Sakinab Shah has always dismissed suggestions her younger brother Zaharie Shah, 57, hijacked Malaysia Airlines’ MH370 to kill himself and the 238 others on board as “preposterous”.

And in July, Ms Shah said Malaysia’s final report into the disappearance – which was unable to determine what happened on the doomed plane – finally put to rest the theory her brother was responsible for what happened.

And now it has emerged Ms Shah believes her brother’s voice was slurred in his final messages sent to ground control from the cockpit...."

MH370 News: The Final Report Into the Disappearance of Flight MH370 Has Sensationally Been Branded a "Cover-Up" By Top Aviation Experts
By Charlotte Ikonen/ News/ World News/ Daily Star/ dailystar.co.uk.cnd.ampproject.org

"The stricken MH370 jet vanished after veering south across the Indian Ocean in March 2014 while flying between Kuala Lumpur and Beijing.

The Malaysia Airlines plane was carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew on the routine flight when it disappeared from the radar.

Despite two large-scale searches of the sea bed, only scattered pieces of debris have been found and the disappearance remains one of the greatest aviation mysteries of all time.

A 19-strong team of Malaysian investigators said in July there was no reason to suspect a mechanical problem, and that nothing in the behaviour of the captain or the first officer suggested any malicious intent.

They concluded: “The team is unable to determine the real cause for the disappearance of MH370.

But Mike Exner and Don Thompson, members of an independent group of experts looking into the flight's disappearance, have accused Malaysia of failing to faithfully pursue the investigation and have detailed what has been left out of the flawed investigation.

They claimed the investigation “was heavily politically influenced and delayed”.

The pair called on Malaysia to make more information public to help independent researchers locate the missing plane.

The group has provided detailed analyses of the search for MH370 for the past four years and includes experts in physics, radar, satellite technology, mobile satellite communications, avionics designers and airline flight simulators.

In an interview with AirlineRatings.com, the experts outlined seven areas where Malaysia either needs to commit to doing more or providing additional information on MH370.

The first is a new analysis of the radar data collected for the missing Boeing 777.

“The Safety Investigation Team has failed to provide any useful analysis of data from the military radar,’’ they said.

“It is important to establish if, when and where descents/climbs did occur and what impact that would have on fuel endurance and other implications.

“Of course, there are the somewhat incredible statements about Indonesian and Royal Thai Air Defence Surveillance radar assets not detecting the Boeing 777 in the northern Straits of Malacca.”

Next, they want a complete “structural analysis of the most significant debris items” that have been found.

The debris catalog includes two parts, a flap, and a flaperon, that originated from adjacent positions on the starboard wing....."

Flight MH370: Eight 'Unsolved Mysteries' Exposed by Experts Who Suspect a 'Cover Up'

"A group of aviation experts has blasted the official report into the disappearance of flight MH370, saying it was flawed and Malaysia didn't try to get close to the truth.

The experts have poked holes in the report and uncovered eight key areas where more action or information is needed from the country's government.

The Malaysia Airlines flight vanished with almost 240 passengers and crew as it flew from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing in March 2014.

It remains one of aviation's biggest mysteries, with few pieces of debris found and the exact reason it went off course still unknown.

In their official report, Malaysian officials concluded that they were unable to determine the "real cause" of the Boeing 777-200's disappearance.

British aviation expert Don Thompson and fellow specialist Mike Exner, from the US,have accused Malaysia of failing to faithfully and diligently pursue the investigation.

They claim the probe “was heavily politically influenced, and delayed”, and have called on the country's leaders to reveal more about what they haven't told the public.

MH370: Expert Analyst Explains Google Maps Sighting of Missing Plane
By Ciaran McGrath/ News/ World/ Sunday Express/ express.co.uk

"MH370, which was supposedly spotted on Google Earth did NOT crash-land in a remote area of Malaysia, experts have concluded after an analysis of the region using hi-tech imaging techniques.

Keen-eyed amateur sleuth John Barnsley, from Liverpool, spotted the anomaly on Google Satellite view, which appeared to show a large aircraft in jungle 50 miles south of the city of Ranong, in the north of Malaysia.

Mr Barnsley, from Liverpool, said: “It gives me the chills when I saw it.

“This is a large plane where it should not be.”

However, Express.co.uk was subsequently contacted by technology company SOAR, which is aiming to rival Google Maps by building a decentralised global super-map of the world built on blockchain technology.

Chris Lowe, the company’s lead blockchain scientist, said of the missing Malaysia Airlines fight: “It's rare but the Earth is a big place and sometimes when a satellite is capturing an area it just so happens that a plane is flying beneath it at cruising altitude.

“When this happens the plane appears to be on the ground because the Satellite is so far away and effectively has an infinite focal length.

“For an analogy consider someone holding a toy plane at the opposite end of a football field and then taking a step backwards.

“From your perspective the plane is about the same size your eyes focus on it the same way.

“This is how people mistake these kinds of images as being planes on the ground.

“To completely disprove this claim it is the missing MH370 we simply use the Soar platform to view that exact area using different satellite passes.”

Mr Lowe provided two photographs, one from Google Maps and one produced using his software, which he said proved the location of the plane to be an optical illusion.

He also said a real crash site would cause massive structural damage to the aircraft not present in the plane featured in the Google images....."
