The missing aircraft pictured in December 2011. 
On March 8, 2014, Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, carrying 227
passengers and 12 crew members, lost contact with air traffic
control less than an hour after taking off from Kuala Lumpur,
then veers off course and disappears. Most of the plane, and
everyone on board, were never seen again.
Authorities definitively linked three pieces of debris to the
plane. A flaperon, a trailing edge control surface, from a
Boeing 777 (below) was found on Reunion Island in the
Indian Ocean in July 2015 and later confirmed the debris
came from MH370.
Throughout 2015 and 2016, debris from the aircraft washed
ashore on the western Indian Ocean, but the fate of Flight
370 remains a mystery.
