A UK tech expert named Ian Wilson has claimed to have discovered the missing MH370 aircraft using Google Maps. The Malaysia Airlines flight, which vanished on March 8, 2014, with 239 passengers and crew on board, has been one of the biggest unsolved aviation mysteries. Wilson believes the plane’s remains are in a dense jungle in Cambodia, a location he identified after spending hours searching through Google Earth images. He noted that the visible plane shape on Google Maps measures around 69 meters, which aligns with the aircraft’s size.
While some speculate the plane was hijacked or shot down, others like Wilson propose alternative theories about its final location. The discovery has reignited interest in the case, especially since formal investigations and a comprehensive 1,500-page report have not conclusively determined what happened to the aircraft. Richard Godfrey, a British engineer, and Blaine Gibson, an American wreckage hunter, suggest that damage to a piece of the plane’s landing gear, found years later, points to deliberate actions taken by one of the pilots.
The landing gear door, known as a trunnion door, was found at a Madagascan fisherman’s home, which some experts believe indicates the plane’s landing gear was lowered in its final moments, suggesting a crash was planned. Despite these new theories and findings, the mystery of MH370 remains officially unsolved, with investigators unable to provide a definitive conclusion.
The MH370 case continues to captivate the world, blending mystery with emerging theories and keeping hope alive for definitive answers someday.
