Is it Legit?
McMahon claims to have spotted the wreck just by zooming in on Google Earth in the Indian Ocean. He took some screenshots of the plane and sent them to the Australian Transport and Safety Bureau. The agency responded, “The images sent to ATSB by Mr. McMahon… were captured on 6 Nov, 2009 more than four years before the flight disappeared.” Although Google Earth says this was taken via satellite 10/27/2014, the ATSB says differently.
