The new phase in the search for MH370

Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott states that the search area for the missing MH370 has been expended from 300 to 60000 Sq km. The Joint Agency Coordination Centre (JACC) is considering appointing private contractors to use their technical skills of seabed prospecting to scour for the wreckage and black box of MH37O. The cost for this new phase of the search is estimated to be US $60 million.
