Debris from MH370, earlier dismissed as from a marine source, has been confirmed as from the missing Boeing 777-200ER, in a new report from aerospace engineer Richard Godfrey.

The debris item, part of the nose wheel door, was first reported by wreck hunter Blaine Gibson, in 2019. At the time it was dismissed as marine debris.

This is the second debris item relating to the nose wheel doors found in the same location on Antsiraka Beach, Madagascar.

Previously the Starboard Side Nose Wheel Forward Door of 9M-MRO (aka MH370) was reported in the Malaysian Safety Investigation Report and is referred to as Item 18, which was found on 12th June 2016 in Antsiraka Beach, Madagascar.

The item says Mr Godfrey bears strong resemblances to the debris item found at the home of a fisherman named Tataly on Antsiraka Peninsula in Madagascar on 17th November 2022. The Broken O Panel was found on the same beach in the same timeframe in 2017.
