Distance between the two? >> no, i dont have that. but it was not that great of a distance. because if we can hear it with the tpl youre only talking a couple of kilometers. so not that huge of a range. >> thank you. >> yeah, commander marks, this is david souci -- how are you? >> doing well here in the pacific. >> okay, great, what i would like to ask you when you saw the two-hour connection and you were getting the pings for two hours, and im hearing they were not able to be re-acquired. i am ...

Were just going to throw the bluefin in the water and find this thing tomorrow. what we want to do is maximize the time that may still be left on those black box batteries. so were going to keep searching with the towed pinger locator. right now, weve done an incredible job to decreasing the search area to a small, defined area. but for a side-scan sonar that works slowly and methodically, its still pretty big. so we want to keep listening for the black box pings, hope to narrowly define that ar...

Feet. it disappeared, then reappeared on radar, they say. was this to avoid detection? is this proof of a criminal act? were live with all the breaking details. another change. investigators now say it was the pilot, not the co-pilot, who uttered the last words from the cockpit. so what does that tell us? and a new ping coming from the ocean floor leading authorities to narrow the search zone even more as they try to zero in on those critical black boxes from flight 370. hello, everyone, im jo...

Those first few hours after it went off course. why had the plane disappeared from military radar for 120 knot call miles after it made that left turn and crossed over the malay peninsula. new details about what happened in those predawn hours. a senior malaysian government official and a source involved in the investigation tells cnn the plane must have dipped in altitude to between 4,000 and 5,000 feet. a possible sign the pilots were at the controls. but its still unclear if the plane was in ...

More and more somebody in the cockpit was directing this plane and directing it away from land. and it looks as though they were doing it to avoid any kind of detection. thats a very disturbing but thats where the evidence is leading. >> lets have that debate between you two. mary, you seem to think that maybe something mechanical went wrong with the plane. as captain shah radioed in the last transmission, he sounded calm. there was no sign of distress. could something catastrophic happen that f...

Altitude to somewhere between 4,000 and 5,000 feet. as to whether or not this was a deliberate act to avoid radar detection, we still do not have that information. cnn is being told, malaysias government has just denied this claim on twitter. lets talk about the planes purported dip. they say it happened after that initial course change that the plane was lost to radar for those 120 nautical miles and keep in mind the planes next move was to jaunt around indonesia so we might be talking about no...

Because if we can hear it with the tpl youre only talking a couple of kilometers. so not that huge of a range. >> thank you. >> yeah, commander marks, this is david soucie, how are you? what id like to ask you -- >> doing well out here in the pacific. >> okay, great. what id like to ask you, when you saw that two-hour connection, when you were getting the pings for two hours, and im hearing they were not able to be re-acquired. i am hearing you went to the south. would you not go to the north? i...

Primary radar goes out to about 120 to 150 miles. if youre in a wide bodied jet and youre at 5,000 feet youre going to have to go out well beyond 150 miles to avoid detection. possibly 4 or 500 miles. youre also going to have to descend down much below 5,000 feet. mary schiavo alluded to it earlier on. i spent my life in my previous job avoiding radar, avoid being detected by radar because thats what gets you shot down. we fly around 100 feet when i used to fly to avoid radar. 5,000 feet to me i...

But we are searching the entire area. it is just a matter of slowly and methodically doing that. you have to realize we are only moving at the pace a person can walk, so a couple of miles an hour. so you have this dimension of depth. so whats really miraculous, this very first hit we got, it was only at 300 meters. so thats very shallow. and actually not where you would expect to get some detection. so right there is kind of a miraculous event there. once we heard it, we lowered tpl down to 1,40...

Signals consistent with those emitted by aircraft black boxes on two separate occasions. i can tell you that "ocean shield" has been able to reacquire the signals on two more occasions. late yesterday afternoon and late last night perth time. the detection yesterday afternoon was held for approximately five minutes and 32 seconds. the detection late last night was held for approximately seven minutes. "ocean shield" has now detected four transmissions in the same broad area. yesterdays signals w...
