Search chief says hunt for MH370 most challenging yet
Play
Sydney - The retired Australian Air Force chief who has been coordinating the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane says it is the most challenging operation he had ever seen. Angus Houston says the search could "drag on for a long time."
"We will continue pursuing the search with much vigour. I have to say in my experience, and I have got a lot of experience in search and rescue over the years, this search and rescue operation is probably the most challenging I have ever seen," the former air chief marshal says in Perth.
"Inevitably, if we don't find wreckage on the surface, we are eventually going to have to - in consultation with everybody who has a stake in this - review what we do next."
