Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 CONFIDENTIAL FAMILY BRIEFING CONFIDENTIAL FAMILY BRIEFING Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 Family Briefing Malaysia, 8 March 2014 “Stewarts Law LLP’s claimant-based Family Briefing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 aviation practice On Saturday 8 March 2014, a Boeing 777- is considered 200ER aircraft with registration 9M-MRO, ‘responsive and operated by Malaysia Airlines on flight unsurpassed in MH370 departed from Kuala Lumpur International Airport at 00:41 (local time) its knowledge of en route for Beijing Capital Airport.

The search for the aircraft is ongoing. What we know There has been conflicting information being released from the Malaysian Authorities and a significant amount of false reporting. Filtered down, we know the following: 1. Corroborated radar data shows that the aircraft may have changed course while over the South China Sea. 2. The transponder (used to indicate the location of an aircraft to Air Traffic Control) onboard the aircraft was switched off one hour into the flight. It has been suggested that this was done manually; Wisner Law Firm 3.

Currently the potential area in which the aircraft may have landed or crashed is extremely extensive rendering any underwater searches impractical 5 New Street Square and inadvisable. It is likely that the search effort will concentrate on finding two pieces of London information: EC4A 3BF U.K. 1. A secondary satellite source which has recorded the automated ACARS signal.

In Adam queries rapidly and Air, it took over a week to locate the wreckage and three weeks to locate the black boxes. effectively.” In Air France, the wreckage was not located for nearly two years. In Air France we, and the Families of Flight 447, have been calling for the mandatory installation of live streaming -Chambers and data systems in all commercial passenger jets. These systems are now affordable and Partners 2014 reliable, and would mean that the aircraft could be exactly located immediately. This would effectively remove the heartache and trauma to family members caused by the search efforts. Boeing already offers such a system called the Airplane Health Management System (AHM). This system is fitted to all 787 models and can be installed in 777 models by request at a cost. The system records 146,000 digital parameters which are streamed live. 2,000 Boeing aircraft fly with AHM, including 777 aircraft operated by Air China and Aeroflot. We strongly believe that Malaysia Airlines should have upgraded this Boeing 777 with AHM. Had Malaysia Airlines bought this system we would know the location of the aircraft immediately and families would not suffer this trauma.

Families will be excluded from that investigation. We believe that is wrong, as Stewarts Law LLP the families deserve to be included in the process. Based upon the information available at this early stage we expect that it is likely the following factors will be considered: 5 New Street Square London EC4A 3BF U.K. Tel: + 44 (0)20 7822 8000 Fax: +44 (0)20 7822 8080 Website: www.stewartslaw.com Email: [email protected] CONFIDENTIAL FAMILY BRIEFING Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 Family Briefing Malaysia, 8 March 2014 In the last three 1.

Where an incendiary device is used on an aircraft, one would expect to find airline disasters, a debris field on the surface of the water with items that had been expelled from the and represented a ruptured aircraft fuselage, charred material, and ruptured metal. None of this has been seen so far. The current absence of a large debris field in this accident is suggestive that total of 20% of all this may have not been an act of terrorism. affected families Hijacking worldwide. There are currently three pieces of corroborated evidence (set out above) that support the possibility of a hijacking. This possibility needs to be taken seriously and fully investigated, however we would advise caution in assuming that this is the definite cause of the accident. There has been no statement of hijacking intent released from any credible organisation and no statement of ransom. It is possible that one or more of the pilots were responsible for taking control of the aircraft. However in most previous cases, such as SilkAir Flight 185 in 1997 and EgyptAir Flight 990 in 1999 where investigation revealed the disputed cause was pilot control inputs, pilots have used the aircraft to commit suicide rather than attempt an elaborate hijacking. Until the aircraft is located and the black boxes analysed we cannot be certain that a hijacking event took place. However, we know from our experience of SilkAir Flight 185 that the black boxes were manually disabled. If that is the case with Wisner Law Firm MH370, we may well never know the truth.

The main cause of the accident on both flights, which used Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, is the defect on the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS), a new anti-stall system of this aircraft model. Boeing 737 MAX 8 is produced by Boeing Company which resides in the United States. However, passengers on both accidents could not claim compensation from Boeing Company because there is no international law that regulates aircraft manufacturer responsibilities. This research tries to analyze whether passengers can request for compensation to the United States and whether national court rulings or judgments can fill the gap in international law regarding aircraft manufacturer. The research uses the normative juridical approach with analytical descriptive method. The research uses the library research method, focusing mainly on primary, secondary, and tertiary legal resources. This research found that the current international law could not accommodate the interests of plaintiffs to hold the United States accountable. The usage of forum non conveniens principle at the national courts made it difficult for the plaintiffs to obtain the compensation they are entitled to. Subsequently, the national law applied in each case is different which created a distinction on the compensation received by each plaintiff for the loss they suffered.

  • Cost-Benefit Analysis of a Two Similar Cold Standby Aircraft System with Failure Due to Pilot Error and Failure Caused Due to Dense Fog
    Research Article Cost-benefit analysis of a two similar cold standby aircraft system with failure due to pilot error and failure caused due to dense fog Ashok Kumar Saini Associate Professor, Department of Mathematics, B. L. J. S. College, Tosham, Bhiwani, Haryana, INDIA. Email: [email protected] Abstract Pilot error (sometimes called cockpit error ) is a decision, action or inaction by a pilot of an aircraft determined to be a cause or contributing factor in an accident or incident. Pilot error can be a mistake, oversight, lapse in judgment, or failure to exercise due diligence by pilots during the performance of their duties. A broader view of how human factors fit into a system is now considered standard practice by accident investigators when examining the chain of events that led to an accident. Description Usually in an accident caused by pilot error, it is assumed that the pilot in command (captain) makes an error unintentionally. However, an intentional disregard for a standard operating procedure (or warning) is still considered to be a pilot error, even if the pilot's actions justified criminal charges. The pilot may be a factor even during adverse weather conditions if the investigating body deems that the pilot did not exercise due diligence. The responsibility for the accident in such a case would depend upon whether the pilot could reasonably know of the danger and whether he or she took reasonable steps to avoid the weather problem. Flying into a hurricane (for other than legitimate research purposes) would be considered pilot error; flying into a microburst would not be considered pilot error if it was not detectable by the pilot, or in the time before this hazard was understood.

  • By Andrea Rothman and Richard Weiss March 11
    By Andrea Rothman and Richard Weiss March 11 (Bloomberg) -- The disappearance four days ago of a Malaysian Airline Systems Bhd. aircraft with 239 people on board is confounding search teams and a global audience used to around-the-clock connectivity and real-time updates. The Boeing Co. 777-200 wide-body, among the world’s safest planes, vanished without any distress call or other indication that something was amiss. Half a week later, nine nations including the U.S. and Australia have joined a search that while focused on the Gulf of Thailand between Malaysia and Vietnam now extends west to Indonesia and east to the South China Sea. That the largest civil twin-engine airliner could disappear without a trace and elude a frenzied search that includes satellite surveillance runs counter to the advances in technology that have facilitated both flying and reconnaissance efforts after an incident. While authorities quickly traced two passengers who boarded the 777 with stolen passports, the area being combed has grown so vast that the search may take some time, said Remi Jouty, president of France’s BEA air-accident investigation bureau, which was instrumental in finding the Air France Flight 447 jet that crashed over the Atlantic in 2009. “It is indeed striking that a plane can disappear like that in an era where mobile phones make it possible to know at any time where anyone is,” Jouty said in a telephone interview. ‘What we tend to forget is that the sea is wide and still very much a hostile environment.’’ Bermuda Triangle In the 1940s and 1950s, when planes were powered by piston engines and communications was in its infancy, disappearance of an aircraft wasn’t unusual.
