By Morag MacKinnon PERTH, Australia (Reuters) - The undersea search for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 is to be extended beyond the small area identified as its most likely resting place as the quest for any sign of the missing plane enters its 50th day on Saturday. "If no contacts of interest are made, Bluefin-21 will continue to examine the areas adjacent to the 10km radius," Australia's Joint Agency Coordination Centre (JACC) in charge of the search said in a statement. Flight MH370 disappeared without a trace on March 8 flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board. The air and sea search continued on Saturday with up to 8 military aircraft and 11 ships.
