No significant clues so far as search continues

A Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) P3 Orion Rescue Flight 795 crew member is seen during a search for debris from the missing Malaysia Airlines flight 370 at 1,500 km northwest of Perth, Australia, over the Indian Ocean, 02 April 2014.

Nearly one month after disappearing en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, the whereabouts of the missing Malaysian airlines flight MH370 and the 239 people on board still remains a mystery. Australia has setup a coordination center in Perth to lead the search and organize communication between the international teams. But there are still no solid clues about the plane's final fate.  [Special coverage]

The aerial search has now covered two vast areas of the Indian Ocean, where experts think the Boeing 777 could have gone down. But the estimates based on satellite pings are far from accurate.

So far nothing more significant than fishing buoys has been spotted by the search planes or the ships below. A new joint co-ordination center in Perth has taken over the administration of the search. Uniting the different agencies and co-ordinating the different nations that are now taking part.

The former chief of staff who will head the operation said he was satisfied with their early operations. And Australian Prime Minister, already in Perth ahead of the visit of his Malaysian counterpart, reminded that at the heart of the search are those whose relatives are missing.

"Just, just awful, just awful. To lose a loved one is terrible, but to have a loved one disappear in such circumstances, in such mysterious circumstances, is just devastating and it must be almost unbearable for those families and I can fully understand why so many of them are just so desperately anxious and so desperately unhappy and this is why we need to give them the reassurance that we will not rest here in Australia until we've done everything we reasonably can to get to the bottom of this." Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said.
