Missing MH370: Pilot shared his flight simulator passion online


Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah.

Now the stack of computer monitors, graphics cards and software he painstakingly sourced and improved is being pored over by investigators trying to make sense of the disappearance more than two weeks ago of the passenger jet he was piloting.
