Malaysia 370 was in contact with another plane shortly before it mysteriously disappeared, it has been claimed. A pilot has shockingly said he was able to make connection with the plane after its last communication with air traffic control. The unnamed Boeing 777 captain claims he used the jet's emergency frequency to make contact and even heard voices - although he couldn't be clear what they were saying. Shortly afterwards, the Malaysian Airlines plane vanished on its way to Beijing with 239 people on bard. A documentary claims the pilot was asked to get in touch with the plane by air traffic control as he was flying just 30 minutes ahead. 'Lost flight MH 370' hears how the pilot, who was headed to Narita in Japan, claims he was able to get through, reports the Express . The pilot, also spoke of the same incident to the New Straits Times in 2014. He said: “We managed to establish contact with MH 370 just after 1.30am and asked them if they had transferred into Vietnamese airspace. “The voice on the other side could have been either Captain Zaharie Shah or Fariq Abdul Hamid, but I was sure it was the co-pilot. “There was a lot of interference – static – but I heard mumbling from the other end. “That was the last time we heard from them, as we lost the connection." The mystery of what happened to MH370 is yet be solved, with the only traces being debris that washed up on beaches in Madagascar. It has led to numerous conspiracy theories including that the plane was shot down during military operations or that it landed at a US military base.
