Liberty mutual insurance -- responsibility. whats your policy? . it is the bottom of the hour. you are watching cnn and the words we keep going-over, "all right. good night.." we believed these were the final words from the cockpit and today we learned that was not the case. malaysian officials clarifying the words were good night malaysian 370. we dont know the significance of this and even the pilot or copail on the who said it. they are waiting to release the transcripts. as the u.s. sends ...

Sea. it will be an area or probably maybe 30 or 40 square miles. thats kind of the accuracy youre talking about. thats a rough figure. and it can be with the pinger locator. the distance of being about a mile to pick up the ping from the black boxes. youve got, again, be very lucky to get it. >> lets talk about the search, how long this could possibly go on. no one knows for sure. but certainly the australian prime minister tony abbott addressed that at a press conference not long ago. lets list...

We certainly have our challenges in front of us. what were trying to find is an acoustic emission from one of the pingers on the flight data recorder or the cockpit voice recorder. typically, these last -- the batteries last for 30 days. usually they last a little bit longer, and thats what were trying to find. but what is critical is that the teams that are out there searching for the surface debris, they get good position data on that, and they feed it back to the oceanographers to help us det...

Towed pinger locator. they drop it in the water and the microphone listens and drags along the ocean floor listening for the sound of the pings from the data recorders on board the aircraft. those data recorders, by the way, only have about a little over a week of battery life left, as weve been telling people. heres the problem. as great as this technology is, it only has about a mile radius. in order for it to work effectively, we need to narrow the search area and right now were looking at an...

Malaysia airlines, how they store the pingers and everything but he noticed that the pingers were kept in a hot room, 120 degrees. we spoke with the manufacturer and its recommended that its in a cool and dry place. if its being stored at a high temperature, then it can definitely -- it can dramatically reduce the life of that battery. so im concerned about that. theres no proof that thats the battery in this aircraft. but it gives me the indication that we may be looking for a ping that might n...

On the very first day they were only clearing about 30,000 square kilometers. so it is significantly jumped day by day. and part of it is that that clock that youre referring to is ticking and ticking very loudly. there are only a certain number of days. approximately seven to ten days left for those black boxes. the battery on the black boxes which sends out a ping for it to be detected. so thats certainly all the search teams are aware of that clock and they are racing to try to find the debri...

Area? >> this is the best guess based on what boeing has said. theyll before involved to estimate how far it could go and how fast it would be going, and looking at the radar data, the straights of malacca, and after that were totally blind. we can just hope it continued going at that pace. >> thats what theyre banking on. they have no other data to work on. they now how fast it was going because they have a radar and a radar image. so as long as no pilot or anyone else ever changeed the intoed ...

Change. good night malaysian 370. its not clear if it was the pilot or copilot speaking. the search itself here, time is running out. by next week, the 30-day badly life of the pinger that helps searchers find the crucial black box is likely to expire if it hasnt already. right now a australia navy ship is searching and on that ship is very sophisticated u.s. equipment to help listen for and detect the ping and find the boxes. government officials say they plan on asking the u.s. for more help. ...

Locator. the distance of being about a mile to pick up the ping from the black boxes. youve got, again, be very lucky to get it. >> lets talk about the search, how long this could possibly go on. no one knows for sure. but certainly the australian prime minister tony abbott addressed that at a press conference not long ago. lets listen. >> im certainly not putting a time limit on it. i think as i said, we owe to it the families. we owe it to everyone who travels by air. we owe to it the governme...

We can zoom in to give you guys a better look as it sits here at fremantle naval base here in western australia. the a-frame on this boat is what is going to lower the towed tpl, the pinger locator and lower the underwater drone. both of these high-tech equipment that will search for debris and listen for the ping from the inflight data recorder. they need to in fact the a-frame. they have to make sure its weld properly to the deck so when they actually get on the indian ocean and drop this wimt...
