French, Malaysian and Australian officials onWednesday began a thorough examination ofdebris found last week along a beach on ReunionIsland, near Madagascar.
Officials already had said the part is a flaperon fromthe wing of a Boeing 777, the same type of plane that vanished in March 2014 on its way fromKuala Lumpur to Beijing.
Early Thursday, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said the wing piece is from MalaysianAirlines Flight MH370.
"Today, 515 days since the plane disappeared, it is with a very heavy heart that I must tell youthat an international team of experts have conclusively confirmed that the aircraft debrisfound on Reunion Island is indeed from MH370. We now have physical evidence that, as Iannounced on 24th March last year, flight MH370 tragically ended in the southern IndianOcean," said Najib.
French Deputy Prosecutor Serge MacKowiak sounded a more cautious tone, saying there is a"very strong presumption" the piece was part of MH370.
"This strong presumption will be confirmed by supplementary analysis, which will start fromtomorrow morning in the laboratory of the general directory of the technical armory,” saidMacKowiak.
Steven Saint Amour, an expert in marine and aviation casualty investigations, told VOA viaSkype the fact that something from the plane was found on Reunion Island was a "stroke ofluck."
"I think it was safe to say that something was going to wash up on shore at some point. Butbasically you had the issue of a huge coastline and something washing up on the beach,somebody finding it and then recognizing what it was, the significance of this debris andreporting it,” he said.
Despite the finding, Saint Amour said it is probably going to be just as difficult as it was beforeto find the black box from MH370 in the Indian Ocean.
