Will one of aviation’s greatest mysteries finally be solved? On March 8, 2014, aviation flight MH370 Malaysian Airlines mysteriously disappeared over the South China Sea, with on board 239 passengers. Ten years later, an Australian scientist from the University of Tasmania claims to have found the device, reports the Swiss newspaper Blick. In a study, recently published on LinkedIn, researcher Vincent Lyne claims to have the exact location of the plane’s wreckage in a hole nearly 6,000 meters deepin the bowels of the Indian Ocean.
The study, which dates from 2021, has just been accepted and published by the Journal of Navigation. According to the latter, the plane would be at the end of Broken Ridgean oceanic plateau located in the southeastern Indian Ocean, “in an oceanic environment very rugged and dangerousrenowned for its wild fisheries and new deep-sea species». For the Australian scientist, it would be a “perfect hiding place”. Vincent Lyne thus asked the authorities to examine in “absolute priority” the site he located.

An intentional maneuver by the captain?
Furthermore, the researcher is convinced that the plane did not run out of fuel, as many scientists have claimed, but rather that the aircraft was the victim of an intentional landing maneuver by the captain. As proof, he cites the damage suffered by the wings and the flap system as well as the wing flap found off the coast of Reunion Island.
Another major advance in this matter: British researchers have reportedly picked up a signalwhich lasted less than ten seconds, using underwater microphones at the time of the alleged crash of the aircraft, reported the British newspaper in June The Telegraph. These new elements could therefore relaunch the investigation into the greatest enigma in the history of aviation. After three years of searching for the remains of the plane and possible remains, the investigations were finally suspended in 2017.
