Malaysian authorities on Tuesday released the full transcript between the pilots of Malaysia Airlines flight 370 and air traffic control.
The final words from the cockpit: “Good Night Malaysian three seven zero.”

Although officials believe the plane was purposefully turned off course and flown in the opposite direction, they maintain that there was no indication of violence or strange behavior from the cockpit before flight 370 dropped off the radar and disappeared on March 8 en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
Malaysia’s Defense Minister Hishammuddin Hussein released the transcripts via Twitter:

After weeks of false leads, authorities believe that Malaysia Airlines flight 370 "ended" in the ocean. Last week, the search area was shifted to a spot in the Indian Ocean about 1,150 miles from Perth, Australia after new evidence showed the plane was traveling faster than previously thought, thus using more fuel.
Several satellites and aircraft spotted clusters of objects that seemed like a debris field. However, search teams have yet to find anything in the area related to the Boeing 777, turning up only ocean trash so far. This part of the Indian Ocean is particularly tough to search because it is a hub for massive waves and winds that often exceed hurricane force. The sea depths in this updated search area range from 6,560 feet to about 13,000 feet.
As the search continues, families of the 239 people on board flight 370 wait in torment, hanging on to every lead, credible or not. In China, some relatives have taken to the streets, protesting in front of the Malaysian embassy and accusing authorities of hiding information.
