The Malaysian team, led by the Civil Aviation Department, met with French officials including a judge, a group of experts, and police charged with the investigation. The investigators then flew to the French city of Toulouse, where the wing debris is being kept.  

Technical experts from Malaysia and France’s General Directorate for Armaments will begin examining the wing component on Wednesday. According to a French source, Malaysia has not revealed some confidential information about the missing MH370.

Malaysian authorities said Sunday that a piece of debris that washed up on Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean is a wing part from a Boeing 777 -- the same type of aircraft as the missing flight MH370.
