Ok, so they're a bit important when it comes to landing the plane without casualtiesNot if your name's Alfred Haynes they aren't
111 fatalities in those circumstances is basically a miracle. It was unbelievable stuff.
Oooh yeah. I had to study this one at work, and if it wasn't for the instructor being on board to provide an extra set of hands it, it would be 100% casualty rate

There won't be any confirmation on the debris' origins until well into Saturday, at the earliest.

Somebody had to say it. So obvious.
It's definitely from a 777. They've officially confirmed this now. Considering there's only one 777 missing in the entire world, I'd say it's just a formality now.
Yeah it's a lot better outcome than not knowing. Considering how important this discovery is, I'm not surprised it's taking so long. You don't want to mess this up

Thanks for the news Alli.
Didn't Tony Abbot say we found it about 11 months ago?

I wonder then with this new information if we dont find it in the current search area will we just keep searching the Indian ocean until we do?
If debris is from 370, it won't tell us anything other than what most reasonable people already knew.
Indian Ocean is like a universe of water.
Could be found by accident in about 50 years when technology improves.

It basically has to be from MH370. Its the only unaccounted for Boeing 777 in the world. I'm wondering if Aus and others will continue to fund a search until its found. Could take a few years if they dont find it in the current area.
News tonight said if the pilot wanted to make the plane vanish the best way would have been to fly to the southern Indian Ocean, land the plane intact as best he could and just let it sink. Crazy to think about.
Good chance they were already dead. I think I may have put this earlier, but they know the plane climbed quite high at one point. Higher than oxygen masks would be useful at. So if they climbed & then turned off the cabin oxygen, the passengers would be unconscious before they could reach their phones to send a panicked text to loved ones. And dead within a couple of minutes

I am the devil that you forgot
Report on news.com.au about a plane door being found but no one has confirmed yet . Would be interesting to know if the locals had collected anything else of significance from the beach. One local said he found a chair and simply burnt it

The plane is probably sitting just 50 metres off shore

Just take a bite
Considering the average wave heights you can expect down there, it would be infinitesimally small you couldn't land it largely intact.

Nothing under there except Port fans.

True. Could have been anyone really. No real evidence at all.
