KUALA LUMPUR : The debris found in Mozambique early this month "almost certainly" came from Malaysia Airlines (then MAS) flight MH370, bringing experts closer to what went missing on March 8, two years ago.
Transport Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said the dimensions, materials and construction of the debris conform to the specifications of a Boeing 777 aircraft.
He said apart from that, the paint and stenciling on both debris matched those used by MAS for their planes.
"As such, both parts are consistent with panels from a MAS Boeing 777 aircraft, and almost certainly are from MH370."
"The location where both pieces were discovered in Mozambique are consistent with the drift modelling performed by the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation," he said in a statement today.
