Google recommends not using Google Maps to find missing planes

Google has warned authorities around the world not to use its Google Maps search engine to search for traces of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370.

The Daily Mirror reported that Google issued the statement after some people claimed to have spotted flight MH370 on satellite images available on the Google website.

Malaysia's English-language newspaper, The Star, has received numerous calls from internet users claiming they have spotted signs that could be from MH370 on satellite images.

The Star said that pointing out different images on Google Maps clearly showing the image of a plane, many people believe it is MH370.

Many internet users have been convinced that MH370 landed on an island in Vietnam. Others believe that MH370's location was near Kenyir Dam, in Terengganu, Malaysia.

In a statement to the Daily Mirror, Google said: “The images may be there, but they are not real-time images. They may have appeared weeks, or months ago.”

With those explanations, Google recommends that you do not use Google Maps to search for the missing Malaysian plane because it may not be accurate.
