  • >> Joe: Welcome back to SourceFed I’m Joe Bereta

  • >> Elliott: I’m Elliott Morgan

  • >> Joe: Sad news as the Malaysian Prime Minister has made an announcement regarding Malaysia

  • Airlines flight 370 which went missing on March 8th with 239 people on board.

  • >> Elliott: Using new analysis of satellite data from China and France, Malaysia is ruling

  • out the possibility that anyone on the flight survived and say the plane met its end somewhere

  • in the Indian Ocean.

  • >> Joe: The Prime Minister revealed, “Investigators concluded the flight flew along the southern

  • corridor and that its last position was in the middle of the Indian Ocean west of Perth.

  • This is a remote location far from any possible landing sites. It is therefore with deep sadness

  • and regret that I must inform you that according to new data, Flight MH370 ended in the southern

  • Indian Ocean

  • >> Elliott: The families of the passengers received a text message sayingWe have

  • to assume beyond any reasonable doubt that MH370 has been lost and that none of those

  • on board have survived…” it later went on to sayall evidence suggests the plane

  • went down in the Southern Indian Ocean.”

  • >> Joe: Now, there’s something to be said about the importance of getting information

  • to the families as quickly as possible, but to deliver this kind of news through a text

  • seems awfully impersonal and mechanical during a situation that you would like to see handled

  • more delicately.

  • >> Elliott: As of now the US Navy is flying a black box detector over in hopes of being

  • able to recover the flights final minutes to give further information of what exactly

  • happened. Although we now know the results, the reasons as to why the plane went down

  • in the first place are still a mystery to authorities.

  • >> Joe: This is a sad story, but now, at least, it has an ending. While the wreckage has not

  • been recovered yet, there have been suspicious objects in the Indian Ocean recovered by Australian

  • and Chinese military planes involved in the search.

  • >> Elliott: All of our thoughts and prayers here at SourceFed go out to those affected

  • by the plane crash and well be sure to keep you updated on any further developments.

  • I’m Elliott Morgan.

  • >> Joe: I’m Joe Bereta.
