Final communication from flight MH370 heard in chilling cockpit audio

A recording of the final communication from Flight MH370 was released weeks after the plane went missing.

It’s been just over nine years since the Malaysian Airlines plane went missing on 8 March 2014, with many questions still left unanswered.

The plane vanished as it flew from Kuala Lumpur International Airport to Beijing, China.

After vanishing off-grid above the Indian Ocean and failing to reach its final destination, it was presumed all souls onboard had been lost, which consisted of 227 passengers and 12 crew members.

The communication sounds like regular radio talk between an airplane and ground control, as the identifying number of the flight is repeated.

However the recording, which was released by Malaysia and initially played for the families of the missing passengers in late April 2014 before it was shared publicly, has a chilling final message.

A voice identified by Malaysian officials as that of a radio controller in Kuala Lumpur can be heard saying: “Malaysia three-seven-zero contact Ho Chi Minh 120.9, good night.”

A male voice from the cockpit of the plane replies: “Good night, Malaysian three-seven-zero.”

The recording was released more than 50 days after the flight vanished in a briefing with the passengers’ relatives, many of whom are Chinese, CNN reported at the time.

MH370 mystery attracted renewed attention this year following the release of the Netflix docu-series MH370: The Plane That Disappeared which explores the plane’s disappearance, theories about why it went missing and investigates the pilot, Zaharie Ahmad Shah.

The documentary also includes interviews with the family members of the missing passengers who recount the excruciating hours, days and weeks that passed as they searched for answers.

After watching the Netflix series, viewers have been frustrated by the tantalising detail which could have solved the disappearance.

During the interviews, a couple of family members alleged they were able to receive phone calls from their loved ones after the official search began.

It was during one such scene that Jiang Hui spoke about one particular strange call.

Hui’s father had been onboard the flight and he’d gathered with others hoping for news when a little girl came running up to him claiming she was being called by her dad.

Showing him the incoming call on her phone, it immediately stopped ringing as soon as she answered.

Hui had a similar experience, saying that he’d tried to call his relative and even got a connection, but no one ever responded.

Dismissed by the Malaysian government, Hui later said the authorities claimed they did not have the technology to trace the signal.
