India pauses search for missing Malaysian Airliner

Port Blair, March 16 (ANI): India on Sunday has put on hold its search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, at the request of the government in Kuala Lumpur, which wants to reassess the week-old hunt for the Boeing 777 that is suspected of being deliberately flown off course. India had been combing two areas - one around the Andaman and Nicobar Islands; and a second, further west, in the Bay of Bengal. Both operations have been suspended, but may yet resume, defence officials said. Military officials in Port Blair said that the search operation was not over, and they were still on standby and were awaiting instructions from Malaysia. Mar 16, 2014

Malaysian PM confirms missing plane 'deliberately' led off course

Kuala Lumpur, Mar 15 (ANI): Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said Saturday that no conclusive evidence shows missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 is hijacked. He added there is a high degree of certainty that the communication device aboard the plane was disabled and its movement showed deliberate action. But the Boeing 777-200 aircraft did turn back from its last known location on civilian radar, and the signal the Malaysian military radar picked up at the north of the Strait of Malacca was from the missing plane, he added.

Keskar told Reuters that the 737 MAX planes are 14 percent more fuel efficient compared with its 737 planes, making them particularly attractive to Indian carriers hurt by high fuel costs. Keskar said that the company looks forward to enter into deals with Air India and Jet Airways following the deal with SpiceJet. SpiceJet had announced a deal with Boeing on March 12, to buy 42 Boeing MAX jets in an order worth Dollar4.4 billion. Mar 14, 2014

Boeing says multiple countries join efforts to locate Malaysian missing plane

Hyderabad, Mar 13 (ANI): A Senior Boeing official allayed concerns over the safety of their planes amid the mystery surrounding the fate of the missing Malaysian jetliner, saying they had also joined the global search operation covering an area stretching from China to the Andaman Sea. Five days after Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 disappeared from civilian radar screens, a huge international search operation has failed to turn up a trace of the Boeing jetliner that was carrying 239 passengers and crew. Senior Vice President, Sales, for Asia Pacific at Boeing, Dinesh Keskar said he would not like to speculate on what could have possibly happened to the missing plane, saying that would be unfair to the families of the passengers on board the vanished aircraft.
