The last radio transmission between KL ATCC and MH370 took place at 1719:30 UTC (0119:30 MYT). A contact should have occurred at around 1722 UTC [0122 MYT] when passing the waypoint IGARI. The first DETRESFA message was transmitted by KL ARCC at 2232 UTC (0632 MYT).

Thus a total of 5 hours and 13 minutes had passed by between the last message expected from the crew and the transmission of the first message triggering the Distress Phase"
