Six months after Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, with 239 mostly Chinese people on board, disappeared about an hour into a routine journey from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, loved ones of missing passengers derive what comfort they can from what's left behind after the world's greatest aviation mystery.
More than two dozen countries have been involved in the air, sea and underwater search for the Boeing 777 but months of sorties failed to turn up any trace - even after narrowing the search area to the southern Indian Ocean - long after batteries on the black box voice and data recorders had gone flat.

Zhiliang said he will wait for his missing fiancee forever. They had planned to marry this year. [Photo/Agencies]
