Malaysia Airlines 370 Search Locates New Signals

Searchers caught new signals that hopefully originate from black box locator beacons. The signals along with Saturday's sounds, are believed to be from a flight data recorder, according to experts. Today's activity included four civilian airplanes, eleven military planes and fourteen vessels.

Today is the 33rd day of search efforts. The signals are getting weaker and weaker, as a result of either the batteries dying or that the search is further away from the actual debris. Yet, Pentagon Spokesman Adm. John Kirby stated to CNN, "It's certainly encouraging that more signals have been detected...There is still much work to do, however".

The more signals officials detect, the easier it will be to locate the beacons that produce signals for 5 miles in every direction. If and when signals are lost, leaders will start the complex method of administering side-scanning sonar to search the ocean's bottom.

Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 passenger Philip Wood's partner Sarah Bajc, stated: "All of us pretty well agree that, until there's the bulk of the plane, the bulk of the bodies discovered, and a black box intact, we won't believe that it's final evidence...I don't think the authorities have given us much confidence of their investigative skills so far".
