Researcher Claims to Have Found the Missing MH370 Plane in Satellite Images
A researcher says she has found Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, which went missing in 2014.
On March 8, 2014, the plane went missing over the South Indian Ocean. It had left Beijing and was going to Kuala Lumpur.
239 people were on board.
After eight years, one woman says she knows what happened to flight MH370.

People say that the plane did a U-turn less than an hour into the flight and was going the wrong way to Kuala Lumpur when communication broke down.
Investigators have been trying to figure out what happened since 2014, but they have never been able to come up with a good theory.
Now, a new three-part Netflix documentary called MH370: The Plane That Disappeared is about how the plane went missing.
A volunteer satellite researcher named Cyndi Hendry says in the series that the plane may have crashed thousands of miles away from where the main search was done.
Hendry worked for a company called Tomnod that does satellite imagery. She found what she thinks is “evidence” of debris from MH370 in the South China Sea just a few days after the crash.
At the time, she says, everyone thought the plane had crashed in the Indian Ocean, so no one paid attention to what she found.
The researcher recalls:
When I saw the anguish on the faces of these family members, I thought I had to do something.
It just tugged on my heartstrings. My hobby is photography, so I have an eye for detail.
I thought I could be a great person to help look for this plane from the satellite images.
Hendry says that while doing a satellite survey of the area, she found a piece of the plane wreckage with the letter “M” on it.
She says that the shape of the “M” looks “almost exactly” like how it would look on a Malaysia Airlines plane.
Hendry says:
The satellite images were empty. It was just the blackness of the sea. Then you press next, more black scans. So much black. And then finally, there’s something white.
She also says she saw “white debris” in the water near Vietnam, close to where the plane went out of sight.
She continues:
I pulled the schematics off the internet for a Boeing 777. And I was able to identify a piece as the nose cone.
That’s when I started saying, ‘Holy crap! There’s a piece of debris. There’s the airplane’.
And then I started seeing more pieces. Something that looked like the fuselage. Something that looked like the tail. I got goosebumps.
Hendry still says that investigators and Malaysia Airlines didn’t listen to her ideas, but she is sure that she found “evidence in the South China Sea.”
The more I searched, the more debris I found,
she adds.
I feel certain that this is where MH370 ended up, off of Vietnam.
At that point, I already had contacted Malaysia Airlines. I tried to reach out to so many people to tell them that this debris exists.
Nobody was listening to me.
