Wreckage Found In Thailand May Be From MH370

Large Piece Of Curved Metal Washed Up On The Beach In Nakhon Si Thammarat Province

A large piece of metal that washed up on the beach in Nakhon Si Thammarat province in southern Thailand may be from the Malaysian Airlines Boeing 777 that vanished nearly two years ago.

It has not been proven that the the debris is from MH370, which disappeared in March, 2014, and has never been found. And Tanyapat Patthikongpan, head of Pak Phanang district, told Reuters that local fishermen said that it was unlikely that the metal had been in the water for more than a year given the number of barnacles that were growing on it.

The piece of debris was about 6.5 feet wide and nearly 10 feet long.

It is still not known why the plane vanished without a trace, and officials say that even finding debris may not offer enough evidence to definitively say why the airplane was lost.
