MH370 wreck hunter Blaine Gibson, who has found many of the pieces of MH370 debris and galvanized others to find debris is pleading for a new search.
Here is Blaine’s statement:
“On the seventh anniversary, I still have hope that the search will resume, the crash site will be found, and the truth will be known for the families and the flying public. I don’t base my thoughts and search recommendations on the analysis of the Inmarsat data end of flight scenarios, nor based on any analysis or assumptions from the Captain’s home simulator.

My search recommendation is based solely on the only actual physical evidence of MH 370 that exists: the debris that I and many other private citizens have found spread over six different countries, and the oceanographic drift analysis.

“Prof. Chari Pattiaratchi’s (University of WA) drift analysis accurately predicted where MH370 debris would wash ashore and when. He advised me where to go search, and with the help of locals and fishermen I found some pieces of the plane, so I highly respect his opinion.
“Both Prof Chari and I think the most likely crash site lies between 32°S and 34° S latitude, most likely at the foot of Broken Ridge at about 32.5 °S. This is based on the fact that all the recovered debris was found in East Africa, and none in Australia, and the timing of the arrival of the early found debris.

“Those latitudes should be searched about 70 nautical miles wide on either side of the 7th arc (A search 140nm wide). The search should include the centerline area searched in the ATSB search, but not yet by Ocean Infinity with its improved technological capacity.
“The underwater topography at the foot of Broken Ridge…
