60 Minutes: May 13

On Sunday 60 Minutes turns its attention to missing Malaysian Airlines flight MH370, bringing together aviation experts to re-examine evidence.

Where is Malaysia Airlines flight MH370?

For the last 1528 days that has been the constantly asked question which so far has no answer.

On a special edition of 60 Minutes this Sunday night, Tara Brown investigates what is now the world’s most confounding aviation disaster. What happened to the Boeing 777 airliner carrying 239 passengers and crew that vanished on March 8, 2014?

With the latest search for the plane in the remote southern Indian Ocean winding down, 60 Minutes brings together five leading aviation experts from around the globe:

· Martin Dolan, Chief Commissioner of the Australian Transport Safety Bureau when MH370 vanished

· Larry Vance, former Senior Investigator with the Transportation Safety Board of Canada

· Captain Simon Hardy, Boeing 777 specialist pilot and instructor

· Captain John Cox, renowned aviation safety expert, pilot, instructor and test pilot

· Charitha Pattiaratchi, Professor of Coastal Oceanography at the University of Western Australia

Their task is to re-examine the known evidence, re-test the myriad theories about MH370’s mysterious disappearance, find what might have been overlooked, and contemplate the unthinkable: that instead of a catastrophic equipment failure that turned MH370 into a ghost flight, this disaster was a deliberate act of sabotage and murder carried out by the pilot in command, Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah.

And if sabotage is the case, what implications would that frightening scenario hold?

Can 60 Minutes’ team of aviation specialists pinpoint vital new data which finally unlocks the secret to locating Malaysia Airlines MH370? Find out this Sunday night, only on 60 Minutes.
