The Operational Search for MH370
ATSB AE-2014-054 · final search report 2017
Australia’s account of how the southern Indian Ocean search box was drawn, refined, and exhausted over 120,000 km². Primary technical home of the 7th-arc argument used in the field.
ATSB underwater search box 2014–2017
~120,000 km² · suspended 17 January 2017
High-resolution seabed search along a refined 7th-arc corridor. No wreckage.
Australian Transport Safety Bureau
Lead of the 2014–2017 southern Indian Ocean search
Drew and exhausted the 120,000 km² underwater box. Operational-search report is the engineering baseline for later Ocean Infinity boxes.
Official underwater search suspended
17 January 2017
Australia, Malaysia and China suspend the ATSB-led search after 120,000 km² of seabed have been covered with no wreckage.
Wikipedia — search for MH370
South China Sea to Ocean Infinity 2027
Most expensive aviation search. Surface 4.5 million km² in 2014; ATSB 120,000 km² underwater; Ocean Infinity 112,000 km² in 2018 and a 15,000 km² 2025–27 box. No main wreckage.
Australia leads the southern search
March 2014 onward
The Joint Agency Coordination Centre coordinates a vast surface search, then an underwater search, in the southern Indian Ocean.
Inside the Investigation: The Search for MH370 Truth
7NEWS · Peter Foley, Joe Hattley
Former lead search officials on internal protocol, sonar-mapping mistakes, and why a debris field can still be found. An Australian operational view, not a cockpit narrative.
Flap-track fairing found in Mozambique
27 December 2015 / identified 2016
A right-wing no. 7 flap support fairing is recovered at Daghatane Beach, Mozambique. Stencilling matches Malaysia Airlines practice; ATSB judges it almost certainly MH370.

en.wikipedia.org · living page · read 18 September 2026
Crowd-maintained digest of the public case: 239 dead, 9M-MRO, 8 March 2014, KUL–PEK, cause undetermined. Useful as a citation map into ATSB, MOT, Inmarsat and Ocean Infinity. Not a primary source.
Could the Inmarsat BFO have been spoofed?
Wise’s northern path stands or falls on this. Inmarsat and ATSB treat BFO as a physical Doppler residual. No public demonstration has shown a 2014-era 777 SDU emitting a false BFO while keeping a consistent BTO.
Flight MH370 — 17 Fascinating Facts
J. Jericho / The Free School · March 2019 · Drive backup PDF
Independent compilation of official-file facts with annexes (simulator pages, passenger list, cargo docs, Boeing patent, ACARS log). Not an official report. Several numbered “facts” still need MOT/ATSB cross-check.
Flight MH370 Vanished 10 Years Ago. What’s Happened Since?
CNA Insider · Insight · 8 March 2024 · 47:24
Tenth-anniversary Singapore broadcast: Inmarsat handshake rings, the 120,000 km² ATSB box, family pressure, and the state of independent debris work. Does not adopt a cockpit perpetrator.
Right-wing flap-track fairing — Mozambique
Item 2 · stencil 676EB · almost certain
Recovered at Daghatane Beach. MAS maintenance stencil. ATSB: almost certainly MH370. Independent finder: Blaine Gibson.
Where is the main wreckage?
Not in the 120,000 km² ATSB box, not in the 2018 Ocean Infinity corridor, not in the 7,571 km² surveyed in 2025–26. Remaining 7,428 km² under contract to June 2027.
Bathymetry and underwater search begin
October 2014
Fugro vessels and partners begin wide-area bathymetric mapping and towed-sonar search of a defined 7th-arc corridor.
CSIRO debris-drift studies
Griffin, Oke, et al. · 2016–2017
Oceanographic reverse-drift of the Réunion flaperon and other debris, used to weight 7th-arc latitudes. Field trials on a replica flaperon informed windage.
Fuel exhaustion, then uncontrolled descent at the 7th arc
Prevailing official end-of-flight model
After a long southern cruise the aircraft flames out near 00:19 UTC, the SDU logs on from APU/emergency power, and the aeroplane leaves controlled flight. Wreckage should lie on or near the 7th arc.
Joint Agency Coordination Centre
Australia · southern Indian Ocean search coordination
Stood up to run the multinational southern search after the SATCOM pivot.
New Evidence, New Answers? The Endless Search For Flight MH370
Independent overview of debris and Ocean Infinity
Survey of African-coast debris identifications and whether a marine-robotics return can close the case. No new wreckage coordinate.
Ocean Infinity 2018 corridor
~112,000 km² along a revised arc
No-find-no-fee AUV search from Seabed Constructor. No wreckage.
The MH370 Mystery — Parts 1 and 2
Easy Documentary · June 2025
Two-part compilation: Part 1 the public crash/disappearance narrative; Part 2 “inside the investigation’s biggest failures.” Secondary retelling of already-filed records.
The Search for MH370 — Journal of Navigation
Ashton, Dickinson, Hall, Roberts, Smith · Inmarsat · 2014/15
The paper that showed how BTO and BFO from routine signalling units can reconstruct a long flight the airline did not know it still had.
Towed-pinger detections — not MH370
April 2014
Acoustic detections in the search area are investigated with an AUV. No wreckage is found. The detections are not attributed to 9M-MRO’s recorders.
