The investigators and experts participating in the identification of the probable missing MH370 wreckage arrived Wednesday afternoon in a military laboratory in Toulouse, according to Xinhua journalists on site.
Malaysia's civil aviation chief, Azharuddin Abdul Rahman, and experts from French Bureau of Enquiry and Analysis for Civil Aviation Safety (BEA) are among the investigators and experts. They made no comments upon their arrival.
Australia has also sent an expert to France to help examine the recently found aircraft wreckage. As the manufacturer of the missing Malaysia Airlines flight, Boeing also sent a team to Toulouse to assist in the identification process.
The investigators are to start studying the piece of plane wreckage which was found last Wednesday on Reunion Island, in order to determine if it belongs to the missing Malaysia Airlines flight 370 which has disappeared for more than 16 months.
The debris, found on Reunion Island on Wednesday last week is about 2 to 2.5 meters long, and will be checked by experts at the military-run General Directorate of Armaments (DGA) in Toulouse suburbs.
The flight, a Boeing 777-200, went missing en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, 2014, with a total of 239 people on board, most of them Chinese nationals. Enditem
