Author Larry Vance believes the plane’s main body survived the crash and is lying on the seabed some where in the south of the ocean
MH370 is lying almost completely intact at the bottom of the ocean, an aviation expert has claimed.
Author Larry Vance believes the plane’s fuselage survived the crash and is lying on the floor of the Indian Ocean.
Vance dedicated a year and a half to researching his book MH370: Mystery solved.
He has now blasted the official investigation into the aircraft’s disappearance claiming he knows the truth.
The doomed jet vanished in March 2014 over the Indian Ocean after setting off from the Kuala Lumpur en route to Beijing.
All 227 passengers and 12 crew on board the Boeing 777 are missing, presumed dead.
Vance told the Daily Star: “The passengers ended up in the Southern Indian Ocean, and are at the bottom of the sea inside the sunken and intact fuselage.”
The Canadian-born investigator slammed the official investigation and expressed regret about how authorities in Malaysia hadn’t gone back to the Southern Indian Ocean to follow his advice.
He went on: “I honestly believed that once the official investigation team saw the physical evidence that we discovered, and how we interpreted it accurately, they would change their minds about what they thought happened to MH370.
“Unfortunately, and disappointingly, I was wrong.
“I am not sure why they continue to cling to their incorrect theories and analysis.”
He also dismissed the theory of Ian Wilson, an amateur investigator who claimed to have found the missing plane in the middle of the Cambodian jungle on Google Maps.
Vance said there was no way the plane could have survived a crash into the jungle intact.
Images from Google Maps show the outline of a large plane – which could simply be an aircraft flying directly below the satellite which photographed it.
But video producer Ian is convinced of his findings and says he intends to visit the sight to solve one of the greatest mysteries in aviation history.
He told the Daily Star: “Measuring the Google sighting, you’re looking at around 69 metres, but there looks to be a gap between the tail and the back of the plane.
“It’s just slightly bigger, but there’s a gap that would probably account for that.”
