Bad weather hinders Malaysia jet search

Efforts to locate objects picked up on satellite pictures, in the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane, are being hampered by bad weather.

An Australian air force jet flying over the southern Indian Ocean has not found them yet, because of poor visibility.

Reuters says a Norwegian ship has reached the area, but the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) say they cannot locate debris thought to be from missing airline MH370 due to cloud and rain.

Eighteen ships are now involved in the hunt for the Boeing 777, with the UK sending one of its own vessels to the scene.

A number of aircraft have been sent to search the area where the objects were spotted.

Four long-range surveillance planes have been diverted to look into the find.
