What really happened to Malaysia Flight 370 and will we ever find out?
For my research paper I had many options but finally decided to research the unsolved mystery of Malaysia Flight 370, an airplane that disappeared with 227 passengers onboard in 2014. This case is still unsolved to this day and there are many theories and possibilities people have came up with to try to figure out logically what happened to this airplane. The search for the plane was the most expensive search in aviation history, lasting several years and costing millions of dollars. This case is one of the most known unsolved mysteries and a lot of people are interested in it. The sources that I am going to use are books, websites and possible documentaries, if located. Since this case is so recent, it happened less than 10 years ago, some of these sources might be tricky to locate, however I should be able to locate enough sources to back my claim. In this paper, I am going to break down the case piece by piece and try to figure out a logical way to why this plane disappeared and where it could possibly be found. Some of the facts that we do know are that the plane disappeared from voice contact on March 8, 2014, less than an hour after takeoff. The search for this plane started in March 2014 and ended in January 2017, lasting around three years long. The entire seabed of the Indian Ocean and South China Sea was scoured and mapped, with no prevail. Around a year later in 2018, the search was picked up again by a private marine exploration company, however they found no traces of Flight 370. The disappearance of Malaysia Flight 370 is one of the most unique and interesting unsolved mysteries ever recorded and that is why I am using it for my paper.
