Over 70 books written about MH370

It seems utterly incredible but there are 70 – yes SEVENTY - books written about what happened to MH370, a plane we have haven’t found yet. Titles include Someone is Hiding Something, MH370 the Secret Files, Goodnight MH370, MH370 Lost in the Dark, Into Oblivion MH370, Life After MH370, The Crash of MH370, MH370 We Know Where You Are, The Plane That Never Was, MH370 The Truth, Putin and MH370/MH17, Into Thin Air, Flight 370, Flight MH370 Mystery Plane. And the list goes on and on. AirlineRatings.com was informed that there were between 30 and 35 books on MH370 and we didn’t believe the number. It couldn’t be, we thought, surely not? It's easy to check: just look up eBay and Amazon. Our links above will take you to relevant pages. Page after page of books. And so, began the process of documenting all the definitive books about a tragedy of which so little is known. So many of the books make claims such as “Mystery Solved”, or “The Truth” and even "Eye Witness”. Another goes further: “Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 – Why it disappeared – and why it's only a matter of time before it happens again.” At least one of book titles was honest: “A psychic look at MH370”. And one very dishonest: “I survived MH370.” Meanwhile, the search continued for a few days after the Malaysian Government officially called an end to it. A spokesman for search company Ocean Infinity confirmed to AirlineRatings on May 30 that the Seabed Constructor would remain for a few days to sweep an area in which a Chinese vessel detected a ping. This was an area, at 25 degrees south and 101 degrees east, where a Chinese patrol ship detected a pulse in 2014 that at the time was thought to be possibly from one of the aircraft’s black boxes. A Twitter post by UK expert Richard Cole mapped the paths of the AUVs. “Three more AUV missions started,’’ Cole says in his tweet. “The positioning of the last launch in the north suggests the gaps between AUV tracks have been opened out again. “Indicated is where I understand a Chinese ship scanned for black-box acoustic pings in 2014.’’
