Years after its disappearance, an Australian scientist believes he has discovered the location of the missing MH370 plane. Vincent Lyne, a researcher at the University of Tasmania’s Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, claims that the plane was deliberately crashed into the Broken Ridge, a 20,000-foot-deep hole in the Indian Ocean.
Lyne argues that damage to the plane’s wings and flaps suggests a “controlled ditching,” similar to the 2009 Hudson River landing. He believes the plane had fuel and running engines when it crashed, contradicting the official narrative of a high-speed, fuel-starved crash.
The researcher pinpointed the location as the intersection of the Penang airport longitude and the Pilot-in-Command’s home simulator track, which he claims was dismissed as irrelevant by the FBI and officials. Lyne describes the area as a “perfect hiding place” with steep sides, rugged terrain, and fine sediments.
While Lyne’s claims require verification, he asserts that science has comprehensively solved the MH370 mystery. The disappearance of MH370 on March 8, 2014, with 239 people on board, remains one of aviation’s greatest enigmas, with a nearly three-year search yielding minimal results.
