Mystery surrounding flight Malaysia Airlines MH370 missing since 2014, took an unexpected turn. Kit Olver, a retired commercial ship captain, shared a crucial testimony that may shed light on this conundrum.
Nine years ago, while sailing 50 kilometers off the south coast of Australia, Olver and his crew found a significant object at sea: The wing of a commercial aircraft.

Despite the magnitude of his discovery, Olver was in disbelief when he reported this to the authorities. on the wing of the plane. His claims were denied at the time and no comprehensive search was conducted.
This fact was forgotten until Olver’s final statement to the Sydney Morning Herald; here he suggested that remains might still be found on the seabed near Australia.
The wing was found during a routine fishing trip aboard the boat Vivienne Jane. 24 meters long. Olver and his crew panicked when the ship had to expend extra effort to retrieve an object from the seabed. They soon discovered that it was the wing of an airplane and that it was noticeably larger than any part of private planes.
By identifying the object as the wing of a commercial aircraft, Olver decided to return him to the water. This moment was also recalled by another member of the crew, George Currie, who described the difficulties they encountered in using the wing due to its size and weight.
“We had a lot of problems when we lifted the wing. It was incredibly heavy and uncomfortable. He spread the net and tore it. It was too big to go on deck (…) I knew what it was the moment I saw it. It was apparently the wing, or a large portion of it, of a commercial airliner. “It was white and obviously not from a military plane or a small plane,” Currie said, adding: “It took all day to get rid of it.”

Olver used a Global Positioning System-based satellite chartplotter to pinpoint the exact location where he found the wing. He provided precise coordinates; “37 degrees, 16 minutes south and 139 degrees, 12 minutes east.”It could be vital for future research in the search for MH370.
When Olver reported his find to the Australian Maritime Safety Authority, he attributed his discovery to the loss of a container on a nearby Russian ship, minimizing the possibility that the wing belonged to the missing aircraft.

Recently, the British Mirror reported that the University of South Florida in Tampa was interested in investigating the wing to determine whether it belonged to MH370. This investigation would focus on wing-bound musselswhose age can reveal how long the object was underwater.
clampA type of seashell. This new development keeps alive the hope of solving one of the greatest and most enduring mysteries of modern aviation.
