(1) The plane debris that washed ashore on an island in the Indian Ocean last week was confirmed to be part of the Malaysia Airlines jet that went missing over a year ago, Malaysia’s prime minister said, making it the first concrete evidence of the plane that disappeared 17 months ago but leaving unanswered why it crashed.
(2) "An international team of experts have conclusively confirmed that the aircraft debris found on the Reunion Island is indeed from Flight MH370," Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said in a brief statement.
(3) The Malaysian announcement offered few details about the Flight MH370 probe. Without taking questions, the prime minister vowed to "do everything within our means to determine what happened" to the Boeing 777.
(4) Alain Gaudino, a French counterterrorism judge, began an examination of the wing part on Wednesday. French, Malaysian, Australian, Chinese and U.S. officials were present for the process at a high-tech military lab near Toulouse in the southwest of France.
(5) Examination of the debris now moves into a new stage, according to safety experts, as the French military technical team tries to extract clues from the part about how the plane may have crashed.
(6) Many safety experts doubt, though, that investigators can determine the central question of why the flight, which crashed in the Indian Ocean on March 8, 2014, veered sharply off its intended flight path from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
(7) "The analysis of this piece will not answer why this aircraft departed from its route," said Jean-Paul Troadec, the former director of the French air accident investigation office. Structural analysis of the wing piece called a flaperon could answer some questions about the final seconds of the flight.
(8) "We may have some indication on the way the part detached from the wing," Mr. Troadec said, including whether it was caused by an explosion or shock from hitting the ocean.
(9) Australian Deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss, whose country is responsible for the underwater search for Flight MH370 off Australia’s western coast, on Wednesday reiterated that drift models would explain the part’s washing ashore on Reunion Island. Mr. Truss has said previously that Australia wasn’t expecting to adjust the search zone short off dramatically new evidence.
(10) Mr. Troadec echoed the view the current search zone remains the most likely area the plane went down. Biological analysis of barnacles that have collected on the flaperon could provide more information on where the part traveled, Mr. Troadec said, even as he doubted it would yield very precise coordinates.
(11) Despite scant hard evidence, an international team of aviation investigators tentatively decided that someone on Flight MH370 intentionally diverted the plane from its planned route with 239 people on board and then directed it deep into the Indian Ocean.
(12) For investigators, the best chance of determining with any certainty why the plane went off course remains finding its black boxes, the cockpit voice and flight data recorders that store vast amounts of information on a flight.
(13) Malaysian officials opened a criminal investigation soon after the flight’s disappearance, examining the backgrounds of the flight’s captain, the crew and the rest of the passengers on board. France opened its own criminal probe because four of its nationals were on board.
(14) Malaysian police seized a computer, which had been rigged as an aircraft simulator, from Capt. Zaharie Ahmad Shah’s home in the days following the disappearance of the flight. Some data had been deleted from the computer, and police tried to retrieve it. Later, the police said they found nothing suspicious on the device.
(15) Neither Capt. Zaharie, 52, nor his co-pilot Fariq Abdul Hamid, 26, was ever accused of wrongdoing.
(16) Malaysia’s probe pursued other avenues too.
(17) The initial investigation revealed that two passengers were flying on passports that were stolen in Thailand. But later the two passengers, as well all others, were "cleared" by the police, Malaysian authorities said at the time, without giving details or publicly releasing a report.
(18) Friction between Malaysian officials and other participants in the primary investigation has been evident from the very first hours after the jet disappeared—and the nagging lack of trust ended up affecting many aspects of the search for answers. Families of the passengers were outraged by conflicting statements from Malaysia and at times Australia.
(19) The U.S.-Malaysian relationship started off badly also. The day Flight MH370 dropped off radar scopes, Boeing officials were angry that the airline and Malaysian authorities waited for hours to advise them about the situation.
(20) Malaysian authorities at the time didn’t say why it took so long to brief Boeing, noting they launched the search and rescue operations as promptly as possible after the aircraft was confirmed missing.
(21) Days later, as satellite data revealed that the Boeing 777 kept flying for hours longer than initially thought, Inmarsat and U.K. government officials were perplexed that Malaysia appeared to be sitting on those dramatic facts, according to people involved in the discussions.
