Wreckage from the doomed Korean Air Flight 858
may have been found in the Andaman Sea near Myanmar.
Reports have emerged of a South Korean television crew
spotting a wing-shaped object and part of a fuselage on the seabed using 3D sonar.
On a fateful day in 1987…
Korean Air Flight 858 exploded mid-air when operating a scheduled passenger service
between Baghdad and Seoul (via Abu Dhabi) on 29 November 1987.
One hundred and fifteen passengers and crew died.
A bomb had been planted in an overhead locker by North Korean agents.
Neither of the North Korean agents boarded the flight
but authorities swiftly determined who was responsible.
As the net closed, one agent suicided using cyanide.
The other was caught and detained.

Daego MBC TV has spent 12 months investigating and searching for the wreckage of Flight 858.
The crew had received a tipoff
that local fisherman in the Andaman Sea knew of a large and unnatural object on the seabed about 170 feet down.
