Final inquiry report fails to solve MH370 mystery

Malaysia's government has released the final investigation report into the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 on 8 March 2014, with no new conclusive findings on the cause of the accident or the whereabouts of the Boeing 777-200ER.The report however stated that "there were uncertainties on the position" of MH370 by both Kuala Lumpur and Ho Chi Minh air traffic control, further pointing to irregularities between both sets of area centre controllers that had most likely caused the delay in the deployment of search and rescue teams when the aircraft (9M-MRO) was initially discovered to have gone missing from radar.It was found that Kuala Lumpur area controllers had transferred MH370 to Ho Chi Minh controllers at 17:19 UTC, 3min before the original estimated time of the transfer of the control point. Furthermore, Ho Chi Minh did not notify Kuala Lumpur when two-way communication was not established with MH370 within five minutes of the estimated time for the transfer of control point.
