Missing plane.

Supposedly found in Indian Ocean. They are lookig for the parts to see if they match the plane.

Yep they had to suspend the search for today because of weather.

The site of the plane wreckage hasn't actually been found. It's only been determined that it must have taken a southerly route over a remote area in the Indian ocean where there are no places for a 777 to land... therefore it must have crashed into the sea, killing all aboard.

Here are a couple of links.

New York Post -- explanation of the techniques used to determine that flight 370 took a route over the southern Indian ocean (not a northern route over some land.)

The BBC on British satellite firm Inmarsat (the company providing the analysis)

To make an analogy, the searchers aren't looking for a needle in a haystack yet... they just know that the haystack is located in the southern Indian ocean.

Yep I watched on cnn yesterday how they where trying to recreate the possible flight path in a flight simulator. They said this morning they had spotted 122 objects that are a possible debris field.
