At long last, there may begin to be an answer to the last flight of Malaysian Airlines Flight 370. Malaysia’s prime minister has confirmed that a piece of Boeing 777 that was discovered on Reunion Island, near Madagascar, is indeed part of the missing plane.
“It is with a very heavy heart…and international team has conclusively…say the debris is from MH370,” the prime minister, Najib Razak, said at a brief press conference.
An environmental worker discovered the debris -– identified as a “flaperon,” a Boeing 777 wing segment -– on a beach on Reunion Island last week. The barnacle-crusted flaperon was later transported to Toulouse, France for further investigation.
Investigators are hoping the part can provide some clues about the jet’s final moments.
After all the questions and insane coverage given to this missing airplane, perhaps now, the families of the missing can begin to get both some closure and answers.
