A newly discovered piece of debris from flight MH370 suggests the pilot lowered the plane's landing gear just before it plunged into the ocean, supporting the theory that the aircraft was crashed deliberately.

This makes it highly likely that the landing gear was down when the aircraft crashed into the southern Indian Ocean on 8 March 2014 - leaving behind one of the greatest aviation mysteries in recent history.The item of floating debris was found washed ashore on the South beach of the Antsiraka Peninsula in Madagascar
