Opis

Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 (MH370) was a scheduled international passenger flight that disappeared on 8 March 2014, while flying from Kuala Lumpur International Airport near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to Beijing International Airport, in China. Flight 370 last made voice contact with air traffic control at 01:19 MYT (17:19 UTC, 7 March) when it was over the South China Sea, less than an hour after takeoff. The aircraft disappeared from air traffic controllers' radar screens at 01:22. Malaysian military radar continued to track Flight 370 as it deviated from its planned flight path and crossed the Malay Peninsula. Flight 370 left the range of Malaysian military radar at 02:22 while over the Andaman Sea. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, was carrying 12 Malaysian crew members and 227 passengers from 15 nations. The loss of flight MH370 would be the deadliest aviation incident in Malaysia Airlines' history and the deadliest involving a Boeing 777. Flight 307 Down is a novel based on the survival of fictional character James Lawrence and his struggles while waiting to be rescued. Not only does he have to fight the elements but the island is often used by modern day pirates as a killing ground for those they capture.
