We had mentioned about the acars system, for example, it was nefariously turned off before the communication, thats not true, it was transmitted as normal at 1:07 just like it was supposed to do, and then the transponders being turned off. theres no physical record of the fact they were turned off, from the cockpit you can put them in stand by, but you cant turn them off. i feel after 200 miles out, the radars pinging, it may not have received the signal that far out to say here i am, heres my i...

Which got the information from the plane, which is not communicating from anyone, but got interrogation from the planes acars system, so they can pin point its in the south indian ocean and know theres no chance it went to land anywhere. >> what would make it go south, what would make it make that turn? >> yeah, and that is just nobody can guess, really. but i do think that enough passed digging into the pilot and copilot, its slow work and will need to go on with that, but i wonder if everyone ...

Situation that required a return back to origin? but now you couple that with the intentionally disabled of the transponders, thats not a normal act. no pilot would ever have a reason to turn off the transponder in-flight. >> anyone planning to disable the transponder and acars system would have to have an in-depth understanding of the ash craft. whoever altered the aircraft had to use a computer located between the pilot and co-pilot chairs in the cockpit! what are the chances that someone othe...

We obviously dont know why this occurred. we know the turn was real. >> we know the acars stopped transmitting. for six or seven hours. >> 1:07 was the last transmission. >> we know the turn is real, because of the evidence this morning. we know the transponder was off. why? because it never came back on again. we now know the route and somebody would have seen it. we know it went southwest back across malaysia. we know it was tracked by military radar. sources have said it went down to 12,000 f...

The company search has grown from 18 to 26. >> the companies involved in this investigation, theyre telling me at least within the first 26 minutes of that flight, the pilots were already changing the flight path. so what we originally thought was the plane had gone up, basically flying towards us on its original course to beijing and then signing off with air traffic control and then making a westerly turn, we now know within those first 26 minutes, they were in contact with air traffic control...

>> to disable the acars system, that is not easy. pilots who fly for 30 years are stumped on how they would disable the acar system. >> the evidence right now leads us to believe it was an intentional act. the question is, by who? ions... you can stay inside. or get behind the wheel of the jeep grand cherokee with an available best-in-class 4x4 traction management system to maximize control, giving you confidence in all weather conditions. this is the 2014 jeep grand cherokee. it is the best of ...

Exit malaysian air space, which is sort of the odd scenario and acars system. then the route is completely turned around dramatically. that suggests that either the pilot intentionally did it for whatever reason or that something was happening in the cockpit on the airplane with some possibly some of the passengers. we cant rule out the possibility of a passengers -- of a terrorist link to that. but one thing we do know for certain, the transponders turned off and acars routes changed. what caus...

Okay, was the turn back because they were experiencing some sort of abnormal or emergency situation that required a return back to origin? but now you couple that with the intentionally disabling of the transponders. thats not a normal act. no pilot would ever have a reason to turn off the transponder in-flight. >> anyone planning to disable the transponder and acars system would have to have an in-depth understanding of the aircraft. whoever altered the aircraft had to use a computer located be...

Satellite company, they can say that the flight ended in the southern indian ocean, mh-370, in an area where there were not any areas to land, saying the plane ended up in the water. the investigation continues and critical to that investigation is finding first debris and then the aircraft itself and those black boxes. >> i think you have two investigations, the investigation as to why this happened and also that first step as to where the plane is. i think we can see today as the culmination o...

Changed the track of the airplane. the other one disabled a data link system known as acars but only the data stopped flowing. the acars system continued to talk to the satellite network. >> right. ive had some pilots say well, you know, a fire could have broken out and that could have disabled the transponders but if a fire broke out, it wouldnt be delivering signals the next eight hours, right? so we can rule out a fire on the plane? >> well, lets not rule anything out. lets do this. lets say ...
