A research team at University of Western Australia also believes the cabin is in once piece, improving the chances the black box could be found.
Scientists believe they know where Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 crashed into the ocean and that the cabin sank in one piece. The research by the University of Western Australia, using meteorological and ocean-current data alongside the British analysis from data “pings” recorded by UK firm Inmarsat, has determined the point of impact and the movements of debris in the weeks following the crash.
A fresh satellite sighting of 300 floating objects ranging in size from seven to 49 feet about 1,680 miles from Perth in the southern Indian Ocean was reported by Thailand yesterday, tallying with previous sightings by French and Chinese satellites. Thai satellite images show objects about 120 miles from a debris field of 122 objects captured by a French satellite on Sunday.
Professor Charitha Pattiaratchi, the scientist who oversaw the research, said that a failure to spot buoyant objects that originated inside the plane indicated that the cabin probably remained intact as it sank into the sea. This would improve the chances that the black box survived without significant damage in the depths below the crash site.
“I think the way the plane crashed, a lot of the debris has been kept intact inside the plane,” said Professor Charitha Pattiaratchi, from the university’s oceans institute. “If the plane broke up, we should see a lot more debris floating around. We should have seen smaller bits of lifejacket and seats, things which are going to float.”

A truly evil opponent would dump bodies, luggage, seat cushions, and miscellaneous debris to convince people that the airframe was out of play while they quietly converted it for other uses...
Yea, they know where it crashed... in the ocean. Somewhere.
Belief has nothing to do with science, except for global warming, evolution...
Oh! A CIA operation then ... false flags a wavin’ anyone?
Though the math involved in this is about 5th grade level and is the best clue to date.
“And what would those other clues and facts be??? “

It is quite apparent that the plane was hijacked and under control. It did not make a U turn and fly off into the Indian Ocean on its own.
It was also most likely out of fuel.
Very early on they said the flight data recorder was turned off. How they knew that is anyone’s guess, unless there was inside information beforehand. We will have to see if they find it and if anything is on it.
Grabbing for their 15 minutes of fame!
I never saw that stated. And if it was (which I never saw) it certainly was never repeated. In addition, I haven’t ever seen it reported that it’s even possible to turn it off.
Well, they’re doing a whole lot better than saying “somewhere in the world” ... LOL ...
We know all of that but that doesn’t tell anybody HOW it went down.
Believe in government grants and peer acceptance....Just saying.
Yeah, I know. Sometimes things are only said once, but I did hear that report and found it memorable.
University of Western Australia... huh. Just more tenure seeking profs pimping for dollars. They are the same all over the world.
Give me money and I can research this some more and “fix it” when in reality they just “discover” another problem only they can now study.
I think that those engineers at Inmarsat and the AAIB (UK Air Accidents Investigation Board) would disagree with you ... :-) ...
That is it's nickname, used by ground personnel.
However, it's christened name, used by management, is 'Carmen SanDiego'.
No.
Yes, you are correct, sir!
