Summary

Description
English: Map of the path taken by Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, with a focus on Flight Information Regions (the responsible air traffic control authority). Air routes and possible diversion airfields (runway over 5000 ft) are also depicted.
Date
Source

Own work Flight path traced from:

  • MH370 – Definition of Underwater Search Areas (pg.3; Since the location of the aircraft is a fact, not a creative work, and the map traced purports to show the path that Flight 370 traveled based on primary & secondary radar, the flight path is not subject to copyright.)

The following sources were used to determine air routes in the area (name & which waypoints they pass through) and the coordinates of waypoints & FIR boundaries (These sources were referenced for coordinates of waypoints--which are facts, not subject to copyright):

  • SkyVector (To determine routes in area & waypoints they pass)
  • ICAO 2014 FIR WORLD (FIR boundaries)
  • Malaysia, Singapore, & Thailand AIPs (specifically sections: ENR 2.1 [FIR boundaries]; ENR 3.1 & ENR 3.3 [Air routes]; ENR 4.1 & ENR 4.3 [Waypoints])
  • openNav (A couple waypoint coordinates, namely in Vietnam which doesn't have their AIP freely accessible online)

Diversion airports based upon:

  • Boeing (pg.6: "Boeing 777-200ER performance summary (Rolls-Royce engines)"; "Landing field length...1,615m 5,300ft" at max. landing weight & highest optional weight [aircraft body])
  • Wikipedia (List of airports in Malaysia & runway lengths listed on airport articles)
