Man Believes He Has Found The Missing Malaysian Flight MH370!

An American pilot believes he has found the missing flight MH370 after looking at satellite images online. Michael Hoebel, 60, looked at tens of thousands of images made available to the public on crowd-sourcing site TomNod.com before coming across what he believes to be the wreckage of the Malaysia Airlines plane off the coast of Thailand.

The flight, which vanished two months ago on its journey from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, appeared to be in one piece in the image, which was taken days after the crash. The image shows a light-coloured shape off the north-east coast of Malaysia, just west of Songkhla in Thailand.

In an interview with WIVS, the New Yorker explained he used the scale provided by TomNod on the map to see if the specifications matched those of the missing Boeing plane and found it was a perfect match. I was taken aback,’ he said. ‘I couldn’t believe I would find this.’

Mr Hoebel, who flies planes recreationally, said he began searching for the wreckage online because he felt a connection to the crew and families who lost loved ones in the crash. He has contacted the NTSB and the FBI but has not yet received a response.

Malaysia’s prime minister Najib Razak had previously admitted no real progress had been made in the investigation since the flight’s disappearance on March 8.
