coming from the black boxes before the batteries fail. three reports of possible audio contact have been reported. still no confirmation that they are connected to flight 370. i want to bring back my panel. mikey kay, richard quest, les abin, paul ginsburg, mary schiavo and colleen keller. so here is our first question we were going to ask. first question is from about the pingers. judy says each ping seems closer to australia, right. do you think something would wash up on shore from mh 370. thoughts? richard, you re at a loss for words. i mean we have so many excellent experts from everything from pilots, weather, radar. all right. investigator colleen keller, yes, what do you think? oh, i guess it. great. i think that that depends on the currents, don. so if the currents are moving in the direction of land, then
so it s very difficult. colleen, what are the odds? to get the black boxes before you even see one piece of debris, that is truly, truly out of the ordinary. that almost never happens. but what is ordinary about this particular case? well, i m not going calculate any odds. it is very extraordinary. but i give them credit. they re trying, you know. you can t find anything if you don t have your stuff in the water. so i m praying that maybe we get a hit here. yeah. up next, one source says the plane may have tried to avoid e detection on radar. can a plane hide in the sky? we re going to talk about it straight ahead. only gaviscon® forms a protective barrier that helps block stomach acid from splashing up- relieving the pain quickly. try fast, long lasting gaviscon®.
contact have been reported now. still, no confirmation that they are connected to flight 370. so let s head back now to our flight simulator. cnn s martin savidge and mitchell cassado. the how is easier to explain than the why. mitchell has been working through the various way points. keep in mind we only know roughly the route he would have flown. we don t know the way points in order to make it happen. i ll let you explain because that s more your thing. yeah, how would it have avoided radar? it s a matter of looking at the charts, the maps, and seeing where the boundaries are for the airspace, the radar, and flying around it. so for your particular scenario, though, you actually plotted a course that takes it originally from what it was to beijing and came in a different way. what was it? this is basically our route
hmm. it s so huge, it s being broadcast on mars. heroes.bad guys. asteroids. available only on mars. there s watching. then there s watchathoning. welcome back, everyone. within the hour, a update from australia with the joint task force. also, new leads surfaced today in the search for flight 370. a senior malaysian government source says the aircraft may have deliberately skirted indonesian airspace in an effort to avoid indonesian radar. meantime, good weather is expected in the search area. nine military planes are help manage the search, along with three civil aircraft and 14 ships. the race is on to find the pings
criminal intent. that s the implication. well, what we re doing is we re looking at empirical data. we re looking at where the aircraft flew, and we re trying to guess what the intention is from that. and that s always dangerous territory. i mean, you really just go back to the data. we know where it flew, but we don t have any other evidence that suggests they re trying to skirt radar. so i m not willing to draw any conclusions from that. and as an audio expert, none of this says anything until you want to get the empirical evidence, which is if the plane is on the bottom of the ocean with the plane on the bottom on the ocean. show me the ping. show me the ping. that s when everything changes. yeah. and by the way, as an aside, i m sure the viewer has noticed that each time we go to the simulator with martin and mitchell, there is quite a bit amount of noise. and that s because, i guess, that the they re making the
