General officers. so it could be high-value cargo. it could be murder and finally there is always ransom. we had a connection between the pilot who is a strong supporter of the major opposition leader. and he was arrested just before this flight. perhaps the pilot felt in the past people have held aircraft for ransom for release of prisoners. so there are many possibilities still out there. and each piece of evidence takes some of them and make them less likely. the pilot suicide is a little les...

That. there were so many lessons learned after september 11th. but one thing that was clear in the investigation following september 11 and that was the plot, the hints, the clues it was imagined and imaginable. we had a lot of intelligence and as soon as 9/11 happened, evidence started pouring in. i got two key pieces of evidence delivered anonymously. everyone wanted to help. here we dont have that. which is disconcerting. so the governments around the world have to dig deep. there doesnt seem...

That? >> in a different way. if the pilots are able to program in the waypoints and codes into the computer they are still coherent. whatever happened has not rendered the plane unflyable. they can still put things in the computer. it does -- im a skeptic. i want to see evidence and put together the pieces of the plane but it cuttings they were coherent and knowingly did change the route of the plane. >> kayla says why do we trust pakistan when they say they have no radar evidence of the plane? ...

York times" is it begins to eliminate other possibilities. sudden inkpas station of the crew. plus the idea you had a yahoo walk in the cockpit door and try to commandeer the plane. >> everybody stick with us. jim tilmon, ill get you in. i want to talk more about this in a few minutes. when we come right back, what do we know about the pilots of flight 370 or any pilots, as a matter of fact? were keeping your answers -- keep sending your questions at #370qs. to truck guys, the truck is every...

And they are your oxygen generators. they only run for a relatively short length of time. thats why the protocol is if you have an oxygen problem you immediately go into a descent to get into breathable oxygen and thats a pretty good drop. thats a controlled dive to about 14,000 feet. >> okay, jim. this is for jeff wise. is there any possibility of the plane being intact at the bottom of the ocean with no floating debris? >> well, if it was in one piece that would mean the pilot did a quiet land...

To allow that? >> you have to look at the radar range itself. when the plane was first lost it was at the extreme end of the radar system from malaysia. so we are talking about 250 nautical miles and the aircraft was at 35,000 feet to. fly under the radar it will have to fly -- know the range of the radar and then fly to the height for that range. so as its approaching, say, pakistan, its going to have to go lower and lower and lower. and i doubt a plane of 200 tons could get under the radar. >>...

Poxuated sleep. the pilots can put on a full face mask and they can indeed breathe 100% oxygen for a while. its far-fetched and awful to think of but it is possible. >> it is. so we heard that the possibility of the plane had gone up to 45,000 feet. if it could do that with the weight and you know, with the equipment it had on board but its the question is, wouldnt the oxygen masks be deployed automatically if that were to happen in the cabin, jim tilmon, or could they control that from the cock...

Flight crew now under scrutiny. >> rosa flores is here now. we got tweets about screening of pilots. here is what one says. he asks, how can airlines not conduct periodic psychological tests or check ins on pilots after theyre hired. couldnt hurt. what did you learn about that? >> heres our david soucie put it do they get physicals every year? yes, they do. the sigh psychology part could be improved. its up to the pilot to come forward. who in their right mind would come forward and say i cant f...

Ask to be with each other. can they ask to be with one other, yes. but i want to talk about the testing, the psychological of the pilot. in law enforcement, for example, they give psychometric testing to someone before they give someone a gun. a common one is the mmpi ii. it is given to people to see if mentally there is psychological issues or personality issues or mental issues. this is something we may see now coming for pilots. theres a wexler scale, the roar shack and in certain people who ...
