In this Monday, March 31, 2014 photo, a shadow of a Royal New Zealand Air Force P-3 Orion aircraft is seen on low cloud cover while it searches for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 in the southern Indian Ocean. Malaysia's national police chief has warned that the investigation into what happened to the plane may take a long time and may never determine the cause of the tragedy. Khalid Abu Bakar said Wednesday, April 2, that the criminal investigation is still focused on four areas — hijacking, sabotage and personal or psychologica problems of those on board the plane.

An Australian ship is reported to have detected two distinct, long-lasting sounds underwater that are consistent with the 'pings' signal from aircraft black boxes, and is being seen as a possible advance in the month long hunt for the missing Malaysia Airlines jet, but the 'pings' still have to be verified.
