MALAYSIA AIRLINES FLIGHT MH370: AIRLINE PILOT SPOTS NEW 'DEBRIS,' SEARCHERS GO OVER SAME SITES AGAIN

Little more than a week after an airline pilot said he spotted a large chunk of debris that could be from Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 - debris floating in the Indian Ocean not far from Reunion Island where the only confirmed piece of the missing plane has actually been found - the official, Australian-led search team is resuming its search for more traces of the vanished Boeing 777-200.

But instead of searching around the Reunion Island region, according to a report on the Australian News.com.au site, the search vessels Furgo Discovery and Furgo Equator will return to the original "Seventh Arc" area about 2,300 miles from Reunion in the Indian Ocean, a region searched for nearly a year without any trace of Flight MH370 turning up.

The two ships will take a closer look at 30 spots in and well beneath the ocean there, spots that they had earlier ruled out as containing any possible wreckage from the disappeared Malaysia Airlines plane. According to the Australian Transportation Safety Bureau, this time around, the boats will be equipped with "higher frequency sonar."
