Missing Flight MH370 ‘Could Be Intact On Sea Bed’

Missing flight MH370 may have made a ‘soft landing’ on the surface of the water, before sinking mostly in one piece, according to an expert.

Satellite expert Zaaim Redha Abdul Rahman says that the plane was almost certainly 'floating for a while’.

If so, the wreckage may be intact on the sea floor.

Speaking to Malaysia’s government news agency Bernama he said, ‘I believe that when the aircraft went out of fuel, it glided downwards and landed on the water with a soft impact, that's why I believe the plane is still largely intact.'

Rahman believes that the discovery of parts believed to be from MH370 lends weight to his theory.

He said, 'It was only slightly damaged and was just encrusted with barnacles. Its appearance indicates that it was not violently torn off from the aircraft's main body, it does seem that it got detached pretty nicely at its edges.’
