Event Summary

01:20:31 MYT Saturday 8 March 2014

Chronology

Radar recording showed that MH370 passed through waypoint IGARI at 1720:31 UTC (0120:31 MYT).

This was earlier than would be expected by Ho Chi Minh ACC (0122 MYT), and sooner than predicted by a flight reconstruction in a B777 simulator (0121 MYT).


Event Details

  1. Safety Investigation Report MH370/01/2018 1.1.1

    Radar recording showed that MH370 passed through waypoint IGARI at 1720:31 UTC (0120:31 MYT).

  2. Safety Investigation Report MH370/01/2018 2.2.7 Table 2.2C - Chronology of ATC Events following the Disappearance of MH370

    Radar recording showed MH370 passed over waypoint IGARI.


Notes

  1. At 0042:53 MYT Lumpur Departure cleared MH370 to climb to 18,000 feet and to cancel the Standard Instrument Departure (SID) clearance by tracking direct to waypoint IGARI.
  2. Safety Investigation Report MH370/01/2018 1.1.1

    Based on the reconstruction of the flight profile conducted on the B777 simulator, the flight would be at waypoint IGARI one minute earlier than the original ETA of 1722 UTC (0122 MYT).

  3. Radar recording showed that MH370 passed through waypoint IGARI at 1720:31 UTC (0120:31 MYT).
  4. So, MH370 passed through waypoint IGARI earlier than Ho Chi Minh ACC were expecting (0122 MYT) and earlier than a reconstruction of the flight predicted (0121 MYT).
