Was MH370 found just days after it disappeared ? Image Credit: PD - Arpingstone Exactly what happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 after it took off from Kuala Lumpur International Airport on March 8, 2014 still remains one of the most enduring mysteries in aviation history.

Numerous theories have arisen over the years, but by now it seems increasingly likely that the plane and its passengers were flown intentionally to their doom by its pilot for reasons unknown.

Locating the wreckage, however, has proven almost impossible, with extensive search efforts conducted over several years failing to locate the whereabouts of the plane.

Now, though, Cyndi Hendry - who had been part of a crowdsourced effort to search satellite imagery for signs of the plane - has revealed that she had discovered what appeared to be plane debris in the South China Sea just a few days after MH370 had gone missing.

When she tried to get the word out, however, her find was ignored because the plane was thought to have crashed in the Indian Ocean several thousands miles away.

More recently, she even claimed to have found a piece of wreckage bearing a letter 'M' which happens to be an almost perfect match for the Malaysia Airlines logo on the missing plane."The satellite images were empty. It was just the blackness of the sea," she said during a segment of a new Netflix documentary about the incident. "Then you press next, more black scans. So much black."

"And then finally, there's something white."

"I pulled the schematics off the internet for a Boeing 777. And I was able to identify a piece as the nose cone. That's when I started saying, 'Holy crap! There's a piece of debris. There's the airplane.'"

"And then I started seeing more pieces. Something that looked like the fuselage. Something that looked like the tail. I got goosebumps."

Whether or not what she had found was the wreckage of flight MH370, however, remains unclear.
