Where does MH370 start on the 7th arc?
The MH370-CAPTIO.net team published a forward debris drift analysis in Dec 2018 starting from an origin just south of Java on the 7th Arc, showing paths leading toward the recovered debris. [See the Aug 2020 update at the bottom of this page for a new forward drift study starting from the Javanomaly site.]
