The search for the missing Airplane which becomes the most experienced incident in aviation history focused initially on the south china sea and Andaman sea. The lack of information immediately after the disappearance prompted criticism from the Chinese public, particularly from relatives of the passengers, as most of the people on board flight 370 were of Chinese origin.
After three years, a search across 1,20,000km² of the ocean failed to locate the aircraft, and the joint agency coordination centre heading the operation suspended its activities in January 2017. The second search launched in January 2018 and ended with success after 6 months.
The Malaysian Ministry of transport's final reports from July 2018 were conclusive and the highlight of Malaysian ATC’s failure to attempt to communicate with the aircraft shortly after it disappeared. In the definition of cause, disappearance air transport industry safety recommendations and regulations citing flight 370 have been intended mostly to present a repetition of the circumstances associated with loss.
These include increased battery life in underwater location becomes, lengthening of recording times on flight data recording and cockpit voice recorders and new standards for aircraft position reporting over the open ocean.
