More 'plane debris' possibly discovered on Reunion Island - Is it from MH370 or from a trash bin?
FREE Catholic Classes
Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 went missing in March 2014 over the Indian Ocean, never to be seen again... until maybe now, that is. Last week, a wing part, known as a flaperon from a Boeing 777 was found washed up on Reunion Island in the middle of the Indian Ocean. MH370 was a Boeing 777.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The discovered flaperon has caused a frenzy of other "related" discoveries. People are scouring the island for other washed up material that could be from the tragic disappearance that took 239 people with it.
Recently a man came forward with what may or may not be a piece of an airplane's window. The plastic molding will be investigated, but some are skeptical over it's relation.
"It might resemble the back of a plane window or rather the part where the masks fall, but right now I can't tell you anything," Gisele Cadar, a brigadier with the national police, said, Australian media reported, according to International Business Times. "It makes me smile a little because it might as well be from a sewing machine."
This frenzy is being called "rubbish fever." People are looking for anything and everything. One lawyer, Philippe Creissen found water bottles and other plastic debris he believes is from the vanished airplane.
The actual wing debris will be examined later this week in Southern France. The aviation experts will try to decide how the piece was damaged to find clues about MH370.
"We shouldn't expect miracles from this analysis," Jean-Paul Troadec, formerly the head of France's civil flight authority, said.
