Tail section off the fuselage. it was ruled pilot error. nothing wrong with the plane. in 2009, a similar story for air france 447. the airbus jumbo jet, crashing into the atlantic after the pilot misread on instrument. all 228 passengers and crew were killed. aviation consultant john nance says pilots relying too much on instruments is the biggest problem in an otherwise safe industry. >> thats why the asiana accident last year was so infuriating. two -- rather three people who were system oper...

Satellite company telling me they are certain that is where the plane is. there still, though, is no physical evidence. as families deal with the news that no one on board survived the flight there are still more questions. who or what is responsible for the flight. what was the motive if it wasnt mechanical. i want to bring back my panel. john, you have been consistent from the beginning saying you think the disappearance of flight 370 was an intentional act. do you still think that tonight? >>...

>> the reputation of not only mrsat along with everybody involved -- im not saying you dont have a point but it would be nice if they gave us information. i dont think you can discount it to that level. >> where else would it be? that is the big question. >> john nance is right. i have questions about the range of the aircraft, if it was down at 12,000 feet, might have come short from where they are looking. that is also true. my problem with this is mrsat which is a good company, if they make a...

Horrible weather is preventing. it is a horrible game of waiting. malaysia airlines revealed worst fears in a text to the families. i saying, quote, we have to assume beyond all reasonable doubt that mh 370 has been lost. there is no firm evidence. is this really the plane? we have miles obrien, john nance and arthur rosenburg. great to have all of you with us. we are going to talk about motive and why later on in the program. i want to focus first wlon this is the plane.

It out. john nance you have flown these planes. can you say it is impossible for this to happen? you can say that? >> i think only a field would say it is impossible. we say the probability versus possibility. if there is a possibility there it is a very low level of probability. let me tell you the reason why. even if you discount the course changes, proximity to get ahold of air traffic control and training to immediately control and even if you discount all of that, in order to turn off that ...

We have hijacking, we have terrorism, mechanical failure. you have some sort of suicide mission by somebody. >> i will say this as simply as i can. i agree with john. i think the key to this case lies in the 12 minutes between the 1:07 time when reported everything okay and the 12 minutes later at 1:19 where the plane, last communication, all right, good night. in that 12 minutes what do we know? the pilot never reported a problem, no fire, no decompression, no smoke, nothing. and the pilot neve...

Certain causes based on a reasonable probability scenario. is it reasonable that one scenario or the other happened? i think electrical is out. i do not think -- this plane is so redundant. eight generators. they have enough power on the plane. i think power was out. the only mechanical scenario is possibly decompression and even that i discount. >> do you think we will ever know what happened? and if we do find out motive is an appropriate word will we ever know that without flight data recorde...

Burn through oxygen hoses, get more intense and i think we would have lost the airplane there and then. >> les? >> we dont know if indeed it happened where the equipment was that was starting to shut down. so different things would have happened depending upon where the origination of that fire was, assuming that it was in that e and e-bay we saw earlier, the avionics bay. but as far as the turns once again i agree with john nance that it seems a little suspicious that there were a bunch of turn...

Vanished theories have arise risen. tonights breaking news, nbc reporting that flight 370s turn was preprogrammed at least 12 minutes before the copilot signed off with the words "all right good night." so combine them all and what do the clues tell us? what are investigators looking at? they havent officially ruled out any of the theories on the table. were going to spend some time tonight drilling down on those theories investigators are looking at with our experts. cnn aviation analyst, 777 c...

The last few days. but if they did change course very severely a numbers of times before the straits of malacca that is not indicative of an airplane out of control. on top of that weve got the situation here where the turn to begin with whether it was programmed before or not was off in the wrong direction. if we had a fire, remember swiss air 111, it progressed. it would burn through oxygen hoses, get more intense and i think we would have lost the airplane there and then. >> les? >> we dont k...
