This map displays the location of Reunion Island in relation to the known flight path of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 (shown in red; based on civilian &amp; military radar), calculated flight path (shown in yellow; based on analysis of communications between Flight 370 and the Inmarsat satellite communications network), and the underwater search area at the time the debris was found (shown in dark blue; 46% searched at the time debris was found). The 08:19 MYT (00:19 UTC) BTO arc is the arc along which Flight 370 was located when its final communication was received. (Note: At the time of upload, officials have not confirmed the debris to be from Flight 370. However, all evidence points to the debris being the right wing flaperon of a Boeing 777 and Flight 370 is almost certainly the origin.)
