A piece of suspected aircraft wreckage found off the east African coast will be sent to Australia, where experts will examine whether it is a new piece in the puzzle of missing flight MH370.

The MH17 and MH370 tragedies will have an immediate impact on how people chose their airline and how airlines are marketed according to Avlaw Aviation Consulting International Chairman Ron Bartsch.

Top officials from the UN's International Civil Aviation Organisation, as well as groups that represent the world's air carriers, airports and air navigation service providers will attend tomorrow's meeting, which comes in the wake of the downing of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 in eastern Ukraine.

Australian travellers have not been spooked by one of the worst weeks in commercial aviation history and there has been no discernable effect on new bookings, travel agents say.

The former head of safety at Qantas has questioned whether Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 should have been flying over the eastern Ukraine given the heightened state of the conflict with Russia.

Australian aviation industry luminary Ron Bartsch has launched an international specialist consultancy venture.
