Drone completes first full seabed scan in jet hunt
Sample of oil slick from search area west of Perth is also being analysed

Footage from a US Navy deep-sea drone is fast becoming the most important tool for a multinational team still searching for Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, which disappeared from radar screens on March 8 with 239 people aboard.
