Flight 370. with me, commercial pilot and fox news aviation analyst robert mark. robert, what do you make of todays news about this pulse and the ping? >> im riding the line right in the middle there, judge, because on the one hand, im so excited that weve heard something that gives us something definite that weve needed for over a month. and as your earlier guest said, the chances are slim that its something else that were hearing. now, of course, we dont know for certain that its this airplane...

Ping from the plane missing a month in. electronic signals reportedly detektsed by a chinese ship yesterday are consistent with an aircrafts black box. but the reports have not been confirmed as some say it could be a whale. >> the black box has been detected, but are they actually going to locate it? >> she was diving in at the salvage officer and was involved in the flight twa this morning. >> good morning. how do they go about going down to -- >> if they do decide that this is a black box, th...

Called the "haixun 01." in translation that means ocean patrol. and the news came out overnight from the xinhua, government-backed news agency, there is a reporter on the "haixun 01" vessel and she reported about the ping. shes the one that said that it appeared that the second event, acoustic event is what theyre calling it on saturday seemed to show a ping every second for at least 90 seconds. now, when that report came out and when xinhuas report came out as well, thats when the international...

Is whether the chinese have actually measured the ping and got an accurate frequency or whether theyre relying on hearing the ping. you cant determine the exact frequency just by hearing. you need to be able to measure it and analyze it. whether they have done that on the second set of chirps or pings, i dont know. obviously, this is as good a lead they have at the moment and one they certainly need to keep following up. by sending the ideal equipment to get a transponder and a microphone in the...

Lets talk about the equipment to locate these pings. >> sure. >> is this equipment something that the chinese government has? >> the chinese government should have it. they do have naval assets. i would assume that they would have it, based on the fact that they do have an avn significant assets. >> we know we have this particular -- what is it called? >> the hydrophone submersible. >> the hydrophone submersible. but if they confirm that there is a ping -- and theyre in a part of the world where...

Can, alex. >> ian, thank you so much for that. >> lets go to colleen keller, senior analyst of metron, inc. she worked on the air france tragedy. >> i know the detections have been occurring at the frequency for the black box frequency. its a very unique frequency so they is to take them seriously. both ships were separated by 300 miles and they both heard something that could be the ping per pinger. it cant be both of them. >> i dont mean to parse words, though, but you say eight very unique pi...

Well be looking at this a long time. >> mary, youve seen this investigation before. really this investigation is unprecedented in so many ways. at what point do you see countries resources drying up saying, you know what, we just cant commit anymore? >> i think whats going to happen is the source of the ping, since it came on the cusp of the battery running out, they will have to map the ocean floor. they will have to do mapping to rule out where the wreckage is and badry just died. after that i...

Data that has to be interpreted. >> irrespective of who brings up the black box, assuming this ping is from the black box and assuming that that black box is from 370, it comes back to the united states for interpretation? >> yes. very interesting. >> or their experts would go to where the black box is, i would assume. >> kyle, thanks so much for that information. >> thank you. coming up, if wreckage is found, it could be miles under the surface of the ocean. how is it brought up? those detail...

The signal 14,700 feet below the seas surface. look at marine biology this portion of the world or anywhere on the planet ocean, 5% of the oceans have been mapped. 72% of our planet is water. 5% we have explored well. thats why a lot of uncertainties about what could be down there. maybe animal of marine nature, maybe the ping and device itself. officials say take it easy out there. we want to talk about this region. we have a tropical storm. general winds 50 miles per hour. the name has been de...

Experts and pilots think that that final ping was probably at the point where the aircraft failed. and if its true that it did go into the ocean, then that would have been right about that moment, so that pinguid be closest to what you would anticipate to be the final location of this aircraft. whether this really proves to be the answer or not, we dont know. well pass it back to you, victor and christi. the mystery continues this morning but getting fluid information coming in and so glad we ...
