"Missing MH370 latest: Air search called off... Only underwater now."
"With several surprising new developments this week, not least the reported CNN interview where Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak is quoted as saying
military radar tracked an aircraft on March 8.
The Malaysian PM said he initially didnt believe it but was told that the military radars have some capability.
The authorities are not sure whether it was MH370 or any other aircraft.
There is also the question of whether the search is going on in the right area to begin with.
These theories will ensure the conspiracy angle stays alive, however, all eyes will be on the report set to come out and if more secret revelations are to
made by Malaysia. The atoll of Diego Garcia is forever hovering in the background and will continue to drive internet discussion until there is closure on
the case."

"MH370: 'We haven't found anything anywhere'"
"Tony Abbott says he's "baffled and disappointed" no debris has been found, as the search for MH370 shifts focus."
"The search for Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 will enter a new phase after 52 days of searching failed to find any sign
of the plane wreckage, Prime Minister Tony Abbott has announced."
"But Mr Abbott defended the search operation in the southern Indian Ocean, saying authorities remain confident that signals detected weeks ago
were from a black box recorder."
What actually is 'Black Box'?:
"Any commercial aeroplane or corporate jet is required to be equipped with a Cockpit Voice Recorder and a Flight Data Recorder. It is these two (2) items
of separate equipment which we commonly refer to as a Black Box. While they do nothing to help the plane when it is in the air,
both these pieces of equipment are vitally important should the plane crash, as they help crash investigators find out what happened just before the crash. "
"To help locate the cockpit voice recorder and a flight data recorder in the aftermath of a plane crash that occurs at sea, each recorder has a device fitted
to it known as an Underwater Locator Beacon (ULB). The device is activated as soon as the recorder comes into contact with water and it can transmit from a
depth as deep as 14,000 feet. Also, to help investigators find them; a Black Box is not actually black at all, but bright orange."
"All recorders undergo countless tests. For example, one Black Box recorder, the L-3 FA 2100 underwent testing that includes exposure to a 1,110°C fire for
an hour and 260°C heat for 10 hours. It is also able to operate between -55° to +70°C and it can carries a minimum 25 hours of flight data."
