The Australia's Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Darren Chester, has confirmed reports that three new pieces of debris have been found and are of interest in connection to the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines flight MH370. Two of the articles were found in Mauritius and one came from Mozambique. Up to this date, it’s reported that more than 40,000 square miles of the 46,000 square mile search zone in the southern Indian Ocean have been examined, according to the Australian government. Now’s your chance if you’re looking to buy an airport…in Germany. Situated in a desirable central location southwest of Berlin, the Madgeburg Cochstedt International Airport is for sale on a Liquidity Services online marketplace. It’s a former Cold War-era Soviet air force base located approximately 120 miles southwest of Berlin. Originally built in 1957, it was expanded to accommodate commercial flight after the reunification of Germany in 1990. In 2010, it had a major infrastructure upgrade. An Air Force Reserve “Hurricane Hunter” aircrew with their WC-130J Super Hercules aircraft joined National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration hurricane experts on May 16th through the 20th to promote preparedness at five Gulf Coast cities. The Hurricane Awareness Tour made stops in San Antonio and Galveston, Texas; New Orleans; Mobile, Alabama; and Naples, Florida. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
