Mr. Blaine Alan Gibson, who has been independently investigating the flight that went missing in 2014 said that 33 different parts believed to have belonged to the missing flight MH370 has been handed to Malaysia.

It has been several years since flight MH370 went missing. In an exclusive interview given to One Online, Gibson said that, taking into account all the parts that have been found, he believes that the aircraft most likely crashed.

While Gibson has visited Maldives on three different occasions, he had interviewed the people of Kudahuvadhoo during his visits. Dh. Kudahuvadhoo is an island where the flight is said to have been sighted.

Gibson said that taking into account the route that the people of Kudahuvadhoo claimed the flight took, as well as the current parts of the plane that have been found, it will be easier to search a specific area

He said that a total of 20 pieces of debris were found by a joint effort with locals off the coast of Mozambique and Madagascar. As such, Gibson reports that 19 of the pieces were found in coastal Madagascar while 1 of the pieces were found off the coast of Mozambique. He said that 18 of the pieces have been handed to Malaysia.

Out of the many pieces that Gibson has found, one of the pieces of debris has been confirmed to have belonged to the floor plan of flight MH370.

The independent investigator highlighted that a further 15 different pieces of debris have been found by various locales. Those include the island of La Réunion, South Africa, Mauritius, Mozambique and Tanzania. Gibson said that all these pieces have been handed to the Malaysian authorities.

Gibson said that 2 pieces of debris were awaiting collection at Madagascar under the care of the countrys' authorities.

He reported that in August 2017, the debris were awaiting collection in Madagascar, under the care of Honorary Malaysian Consul, Zahid Raza. Gibson said that the Consul was assassinated and the pieces were delayed in being handed to Malaysia. Commenting on the assassination, Gibson said that the matter is still under investigation.

Mr. Gibson said that he truly believes that the site at which the flight crashed can still be found. Based on the current pieces of debris collected, he estimates that it is possible that the pieces were coming in from the southwest of the Maldives or far off the coast of Australia.

While MH370 departed Kuala, Malaysia with 239 crew and passengers on board, enroute to Beijing on the 8th of March 2014, the plane went missing shortly after. While state of the art technology and numerous teams have come together to find the aircraft, there have been no major breakthroughs in the years since. The debris found along the coast of several countries have however renewed hope that there might be an answer to the questions surrounding the missing aircraft.
