Thanks Kristinn.
Heads up folks. Pass the word!

[corkoman]

Could be a gesture to the grieving families? Why would the PM wade into this now?

[BenLurkin]

Rescue attempt failed?

[lancium]

per @journodannyasia (south china morning post) family members to take chartered flight to Australia

[hoagy62]

Could it be that after all this time they finally found something?

MORE: @SkyNews is reporting that arrangements are being made to fly the #MH370 families to Australia. Again, more poss debris found today.

[McGruff]

Sure sounds like they are close to finding it. But we’ve been there before.

[hoosiermama]

Why go to Australia unless to identify bodies.

[McGruff]

An Australian air force search plane has spotted two objects in the Indian Ocean while searching for missing flight MH370. Flight Lieutenant Captain Josh Williams, Royal Australia Air Force said: “It’s been the first time we’ve actually certified that we’ve seen something and got photographs, using our camera operator up the front, of anything in the area.”

Good question, but bodies in the water this long?

[RandallFlagg]

Sharks would have taken them by now, I would think.

[ConservativeMan55]

Yeah... this could be another dead end.

"However he could not verify that these are objects rated to the missing MH370. "All we provide is the possibility that they are [MH370 debris], as well as a location, a time and we mark those objects, that's all we can provide. The analysis will be left to the photographers once we land, as well as HMAS Success, once she steams into the area and hopefully retrieves some of these objects."

Thanks for the heads up —

More than likely debris from the 777 has been found and one would expect the notification to be made in this way with the families first.

Isn't every story on CNN now "breaking"?

[ken5050]

Gen. McInerny will be surprised.

[Sparky1776]

“Something is up.”

I’m thinking down.
