A Chinese and an Australian ship have failed to identify remains from the missing Malaysia Airlines flight after their first day in a new search area.

The two ships retrieved objects from the Indian Ocean but none was confirmed to be from missing flight MH370, Australia's maritime authority said.

Chinese aircraft also flew over the area, north-east of the previous zone, and have spotted more objects.

The airliner disappeared on 8 March with 239 people on board.

Chinese patrol ship Haixun 01 and Australia's HMAS Success "reported they have retrieved a number of objects from the ocean but so far no objects confirmed to be related to MH370 have been recovered",

Eight aircraft also took part in the operation. One Chinese plane reported spotting spotted three orange, white and red objects floating in the sea.

Some of the objects seen in the area have been very small, and officials cautioned that they may be sea junk.

Amsa said that "at least one distinctive fishing object has been identified".

I bet CNN is relieved! This will mean a few more weeks of coverage.

I agree. Finding pictures of stuff floating in the ocean shouldn’t be that hard

Everyday CNN reports on “Objects” recovered from the Indian Ocean..they should go to Santa Monica Pier that place has “objects” every single day..either they have no idea where this plane is or they are giving these families the runaround..last night I heard that guy Hussein say that there is always a slight hope the passengers are alive..why even say that, to torture the families some more? Unless he has actual proof they are alive he shouldn’t even be saying that

And tomorrow, they’ll spot some more trash. And it will be the most “credible” evidence yet. And they’ll move the search area to a new spot 500 miles from the last spot. And they’ll find nothing.

My theory is that the closer you can get your search area to a populated land mass the more likely you’ll find debris you can announce as another “sighting of debris”.
