A 'three-part riddle' could finally solve the mystery of the missing MH370 plane which vanished nearly ten years ago, a former leading scientist has claimed.
The ill-fated Malaysian Airlines aircraft disappeared with 239 passengers and crew onboard on March 8 2014.
Flying between Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, it was never seen again prompting several theories about its final resting place and why it never made it to China’s capital.
Heartbreakingly, the search for the missing jet was called off in 2018 - and there are still no answers for the passengers' family and friends.
Now, a newly published study on the final moments of the plane could lift the lid on what actually happened
Doomed Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 may have 'crashed in different ocean'A retired scientist has claimed to have uncovered a "riddle" relating to “a deep hole about 1,500km west of Perth" where the huge craft came down, Express.co.uk reports.
Vincent Lyne, a former researcher at the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies at the University of Tasmania, has disclosed his latest theory.
In his latest self-published paper, he claims to have identified a 6000-metre-deep Penang Longitude Hole beneath where the plane landed.
My Lyne says a flight simulator for a Long-Range Boeing 777-200LR recovered by official investors shows a track that resembles but diverges from the "official track along the Malacca Strait".
He wrote: "Here, I reflect, as part of the 'scenario backlash' process, on the PIC track assuming that it may be a riddle with hidden planning details such that the start of the southward track (at the northern left turn) and endpoint obfuscate simulation of flight path intentions.
"A three-part riddle was identified where the PL location, as the pivot point (Part 1), separated out a northern track (Part 2), and a southern track (Part 3).
"With Part 1 solved, the Part 2 northern track length of ~5000 km optimally fits the PL theory predicted track length, if the southeast turn to the PL location occurs tightly near the south-west corner of the Jindalee Over-the-Horizon Radar Network (JORN) range (a critical core feature of the PL theory).
"The Part 3 decoy southern track length (~1480 km) is precisely the same distance as the PL location to Perth Airport."
He went on: "I conclude that Part 1 and 2 were related to the intended flight path, and that Part 3 was a diversion; simply because a PIC track with just Part 1 and 2 may have been enough to solve the riddle.
"If this is indeed the resolution of the riddle, it is yet another confirmation added to the list of all valid evidence reconciled by the PL theory."
Flying orbs spinning around plane 'is proof of teleportation' and MH370 theoryMr Lyne concluded that the "remaining unsolved riddles" include whether his "PL location is "indeed the very precise final resting place of MH370" and why search investigators "still insist" on searching near the "seventh arc".
Since its disappearance in 2014, official investigators have used calculations to reduce MH370's location to a series of "arcs".
Almost as soon as the plane went missing, the conspiracy theories started.
Did the pilot deliberately change the course in a gruesome murder suicide or was the plane hijacked?
Were its controls remotely hacked and was it landed safely outside of the radar that should have been tracking it.
The last official contact MH370 had with the crew on the ground was 38 minutes into the flight.
