The search of the focused underwater area by the Bluefin-21 will complete in five to seven days, the Joint Agency Coordination Center (JACC) said on Saturday.[Special coverage]


"Provided the weather is favorable for launch and recovery of the AUV and we have a good run with the serviceability of the AUV, we should complete the search of the focused underwater area in five to seven days," the JACC said.


The underwater search of this area by autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) Bluefin-21 commenced on Monday (April 14).


According to the JACC, the focused underwater search area is defined as a circle of 10 km radius around the second Towed Pinger Locator detection which occurred on April 8.


"We are satisfied with progress so far, although there has been some planning adjustments caused by weather, unserviceability and other unforseen circumstances," the JACC said.

That's because the search has been narrowed to a very small area, Malaysian acting Transport Minister Hishammudin Hussein said, adding that he was informed by Angus Houston of the Joint Agency Coordination Center (JACC) that the visuals they got from the autonomous underwater vehicle, Bluefin- 21 were very clear, which made it quite easy to see the seabed.>>>
