MH370: Investigators say Tanzania debris part of missing plane

Dodoma, Sept 15 (IBNS): Australian investigators on Thursday said that the large item of debris which was found off the coast of Tanzania belongs to the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, media reports said on Thursday.

"The fragment, said to be the inboard section of the right, outboard flap of the plane, was recovered in June," BBC reported.

The piece is now being examined for any evidence that may indicate how the flap was operating at the time of separation from the wing, BBC reported quoting the Australian Transport Safety Bureau's report.

The Malaysian Airlines Boeing 777, which had  239 people on board,  had disappeared in March  2014.

It was on its way from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
