MH370 Search On Again

In early March this year, just over 9 months ago, we brought you the news that MYSTERY SHROUDS MH370 SEARCH OUT OF FREMANTLE.

At that point it transpired that Ocean Infinity’s Armada 78 06 search support vessel had berthed just south of Fremantle at the Australian Marine Complex at Henderson a couple days earlier. The word was it was taking in necessary supplies and stuff to commence a new search for the missing Malaysian Airlines plane.

Then in the afternoon of 6 March 2025, Armada 78 06 left Henderson after a lack of clarity over a day or two about just when she was leaving.

On 10 March 2025, in our story SHROUD OF MYSTERY LIFTED? MAYBE, we reported that it appeared the search support vessel was indeed busy in the Indian Ocean search area searching for the lost MH370.

The plane wasn’t then found. But it now appears the search is on again.

Yesterday a new search support vessel belonging to Ocean Infinity arrived off Fremantle from Benoa, Bali, took on fuel and possibly additional supplies, and then, without further ado, set sail for, we expect, the MH370 search area.

Here are Les Moyle of Balm Commercial Photography’s fab drone pics of Armada 86 05 being refuelled yesterday by local tanker Absolute near Garden Island before later vamoosing. You might say she’s been and gone, in a flash.

And here is the position of Armada 86 05 not long ago just north of Rottnest Island.
