The mystery of what happened to the MH370 plane has been 'solved' by Google Maps after a technology expert 'found the aircraft' in deepest darkest part of Cambodia jungle.
Ian Wilson, an expert from the UK, said he reckoned missing Malaysia Airlines plane remains - which vanished carrying 239 people en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing - are scattered deep in a jungle in Cambodia. He said: "Measuring the Google sighting, you're looking at around 69 metres, but there looks to be a gap between the tail and the back of the plane. It's just slightly bigger, but there's a gap that would probably account for that."
Plane hunter Daniel Boyer previously claimed to have found the cockpit and tail Ð complete with the Malaysia Airlines logo - of the missing aircraft using Google MapsThe plane's vanishing sparked the largest-ever search operation, and remains one of the greatest aviation mysteries of our time. But the search could be restarted after new investigations in the US.
The flight took off from Kuala Lampur on March 8, 2014, with 227 passengers on board and 12 crew. But it disappeared during a handover between Malaysian and Vietnamese air traffic controllers.
A pilot claimed to have discovered parts of doomed Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 in the same area of the Cambodian jungleMr Wilson said: "I was on there [Google Earth], a few hours here, a few hours there. If you added it up I spent hours searching for places a plane could have gone down. And in the end, as you can see the place where the plane is. It is literally the greenest, darkest part you can see."

Florida academics say temperature data held by barnacles found on parts of the plane's debris may provide the answer. These, they believe, could help track the movements of the sea creatures all the way back to when they first became attached to the aircraft.
Ian Wilson, an expert form the UK, flew to Cambodia after claiming to have spotted the Malaysia Airlines plane on Google MapsGregory Herbert, an associate professor of evolutionary biology at the University of South Florida in the city of Tampa, said, "As soon as I saw that, I immediately began sending emails to the search investigators because I knew the geochemistry of their shells could provide clues to the crash location," reported MailOnline. Because barnacles grow their shells daily it means that the chemistry of each layer can be determined by the temperature of the water at the time.

Anwar then told a press conference in Melbourne: "We have taken the position that if there is a compelling case, evidence that it needs to be re-opened, we’re certainly happy to reopen. Whatever needs to be done must be done.”
Transport Minister Anthony Loke said Texas-based firm Ocean Infinity had said they could scour an area of the Indian Ocean on a no-find, no-fee basis. Mr Loke did not say if a fee was payable if the plane wreckage was found.

We are waiting for Ocean Infinity to provide suitable dates, and I will meet them anytime that they are ready to come to Malaysia.”
