Missing Malaysia Airlines Jet's Engines Likely Intact: Officials

Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370's engines are likely intact on the ocean floor and could help investigators locate the missing aircraft that vanished March 8, NBC News reported. Consequently, investigators have calibrated their search equipment to the specific size of the Boeing 777's giant turbofan engines — which are the largest of any commercial airliner. The theory that the aircraft might be found this way is based on Air France Flight 447. Its debris was discovered two years after it crashed in the Atlantic Ocean in November 2009. The doomed Airbus A330's engines were of a similar size to the 777.
