Episode 282: The Disappearance of Flight MH370 – Part 2

A full scale, multi-million dollar search for MH370 was in progress, but there was no sign of the lost jet in the wilds of the Indian Ocean. Then, by chance, a piece of the aircraft was located on a French island. More debris was found along an enormous expanse of coastline. But the physical evidence only seemed to spur on more theories, and now, 10 years later, the search might begin again. This week’s episode is The Disappearance of Flight MH370 - Part 2.
