Book Description
When we board a modern twenty-first century aircraft, we are all confident of, hopefully, a smooth flight, and delivery, to our destination of choice. This was not the case of Malaysia Airlines Flight no. MH-370. It never landed at its destination, nor any other airport. This chronology of the facts of its final flight is written to help soothe the nerves of the international flying public. Because MH-370 vanished mysteriously, its story was written beginning as an unsolved mystery disappearance. Later, when arriving at the conclusion of a tale of a mysteriously missing aircraft, with 239 souls aboard, I realized I had composed a history of the facts and human stories, chronicled within the saga of The Mysterious Final Flight of MH-370. Therefore, the inclusion of the safety of today's human flight is annotated, but also the future of human air flight safety, by describing new safety measures designed to replace outdated twentieth century "black box" invention, with twenty-first century digitized data recording innovative technologies. Cost seems to be the inhibition of installing, then implementing, the now preexisting twenty-first century technologies on all aircraft worldwide, hopefully sooner rather than later. The good news is the United States Air Force has it already implemented and utilized daily today. One day, MH-370 may be located, certainly providing solace and closure for the 239 families missing their loved ones, who comprised the flight manifest of the 239 missing souls aboard MH-370. Plus, both "black boxes" may provide answers to what transpired during "The Mysterious Final Flight of MH-370." Additionally, it is said and felt "Hope springs daily, living eternally."

IN A WORLD WHERE WE CAN BE TRACKED BY OUR MOBILE PHONES, CCTV AND SPY SATELLITES, THINGS DO NOT JUST DISAPPEAR. ESPECIALLY NOT A BIG THING LIKE A JUMBO JET. BUT MALAYSIAN AIRLINES FIGHT MH370 DID.A wide-bodied Boeing 777 is so large that you could barely park it on a football field. But soon after a routine takeoff from Kuala Lumpur International Airport on the night of 7 March 2014, Flight MH370 disappeared from the radar with 227 passengers and 12 crew on board. No one could even be sure where it was last seen. Debris was spotted hundreds, then thousands of miles apart, only to be discounted.For weeks this real-life version of the hit TV show Lost gripped the world. Even Russia's invasion of the Crimea couldn't keep it off the front pages. Were those on board to be found alive on a mysterious tropical island? Had they crashed into the sea? Had the plane been hijacked or brought down by a terrorist bomb?As the story unfolded more mysteries came to light. Who had turned off the plane's tracking systems? And why? Why had there been no 'Mayday' call? And which way was it headed?Why were governments and institutions that had information about Flight MH370 so reluctant to share it? And why did the mobile phones of those on board continue to ring out. Wild theories abounded. Had Flight MH370 been abducted by aliens? Or shot down by the North Koreans?Its route took it nowhere near the Devil's Sea - the Pacific's answer to the Bermuda Triangle. But somehow, in the world of the web, where every email was intercepted, the disappearance of MH370 began to rival the legend of the Marie Celeste.Prolific author Nigel Cawthorne sifts the evidence, weighs the theories and unravels the mystery of Flight MH370.

Book Description
"A staggering, meticulous and frequently spine-chilling work of longform journalism." Trent Dalton Somewhere deep beneath the wild seas of the southern Indian Ocean, perhaps in the eerie underwater canyons of Broken Ridge along the Seventh Arc satellite band, lies the answer to the world's greatest aviation mystery. Why, on the night of 8 March 2014, did Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 suddenly U-turn, zig-zag up the Straits of Malacca, then vanish with 239 souls on board? Was it an elaborate murder-suicide by a rogue pilot? A terrible accident such as onboard fire, rapid decompression or systems failure? A terrorist hijacking gone wrong? Or something else entirely? Award-winning journalist Ean Higgins has led the world media's coverage of this incredible saga and draws on years of interviews with aviation experts, victims' families, air crash investigators and professional hunters across land, sea and sky to dissect the riddle of MH370's fate. PRAISE FOR THE HUNT FOR MH370 "The Hunt for MH370 is a riveting page-turner written with the drama and intrigue of a thriller. Piece by tantalising piece, Ean Higgins unpuzzles this most baffling of mysteries, asking dangerous questions and revealing shocking truths." Dick Smith "The disappearance of MH370 remains the greatest and most pressing mystery in aviation history that demands answers for both the families of the stricken passengers and the travelling public. No journalist has been more relentless in the pursuit of the truth of MH370 than Ean Higgins. The Hunt for MH370 is an engrossing book in which Higgins has meticulously pieced together the puzzle of the doomed flight from its vanishing to the flawed investigation and the largest maritime search ever that leads the reader to a chilling conclusion that is almost impossible to comprehend."

Book Description
CNN Aviation Correspondent Richard Quest offers a gripping and definitive account of the disappearance of Malaysian Airline Flight MH370 in March 2014. On March 8, 2014, Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370 disappeared with barely a trace, carrying 239 people on board--seemingly vanishing into the dark night. The airplane's whereabouts and fate would quickly become one of the biggest aviation mysteries of our time... Richard Quest, CNN's Aviation Correspondent, was one of the leading journalists covering the story. In a coincidence, Quest had interviewed one of the two pilots a few weeks before the disappearance. It is here that he begins his gripping account of those tense weeks in March, presenting a fascinating chronicle of an international search effort, which despite years of searching and tens of millions of dollars spent has failed to find the plane. Quest dissects what happened in the hours following the plane's disappearance and chronicles the days and weeks of searching, which led to nothing but increasing despair. He takes apart the varying responses from authorities and the discrepancies in reports, the wide range of theories, the startling fact that the plane actually turned around and flew in the opposite direction, and what solutions the aviation industry must now implement to ensure it never happens again. What emerges is a riveting chronicle of a tragedy that continues to baffle everyone from aviation experts to satellite engineers to politicians--and which to this day worries the traveling public that it could happen again.

Book Description
A fascinating exploration of how humans and machines fail - leading to air disasters from Amelia Earhart to MH370 - and how the lessons learned from these accidents have made flying safer. In The Crash Detectives, veteran aviation journalist and air safety investigator Christine Negroni takes the reader inside crash investigations from the early days of the jet age to the present, including the search for answers about what happened to the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. As Negroni dissects each accident, she explores the common themes and, most importantly, what has been learned from them to make planes safer. Indeed, as Negroni shows, virtually every aspect of modern pilot training, airline operation and aircraft design has been shaped by lessons learned from disaster. Along the way, she also details some miraculous saves, when quick-thinking pilots averted catastrophe and kept hundreds of people alive. Tying in aviation science, performance psychology and extensive interviews with pilots, engineers, human factors specialists, crash survivors and others involved in accidents all over the world, The Crash Detectives is an alternately terrifying and inspiring book that might just cure your fear of flying, and will definitely make you a more informed passenger.

Book Description
Probably, flight MH 370 was hijacked and it was a crucial part of a special mission that was fixed beforehand.. 'Someone' took the control of the cockpit and flew the aircraft to a pre-selected place. A few investigators believe that the important answers probably don't lie in the ocean but on land. Somehow the focus was changed. The answers may lie close at hand, but they are more difficult to retrieve than any black box. Five years after the mysterious missing of Flight MH 370, the investigators are still in the dark. The family members of the ill fated passengers are still confused, angry, but eagerly waiting to know the fact, not the 'theories'. They believe the missing of Flight MH 370 is not a history, but a mystery that had left behind a series of unanswered question. After 1.19 am in 2014, March 08, the cockpit suddenly became silent and the flight changed its normal flight path. But why? What had actually happened in the cockpit? Who changed the flight path? Was it a part of an organized plan? Who switched the transponder off, preventing anyone from tracking the aircraft? Who would be benefitted? And why was there never a 'Mayday' message or a final phone call or a desperate text from a panicked passenger? Is 'someone' or 'a group' hiding 'something' that might reveal the truth. Question after question... mystery upon mystery and these questions are running behind the family members of the flight 370 passengers because they are the only persons suffering the misery. They were forced to bear the fruit of another's fault. In this book I searched for the answers of these important questions. Hope, one day the families of the ill-fated passengers and crews will get back their loving relatives, parents and children. We extend our heartfelt sympathies to the families, friends, and colleagues of those on board.
