>> of course, were talking about two different things, anderson. the wild swings in altitude come from radar data that the malaysians have put together, which is i would say significantly suspect, just because of some technical issues and distance from the radar to begin with. but the information that the plane is sending to the satellite, thats much more specific and i think much more accurate. its rudimentary. it doesnt give you a good sense of exactly where it is and what its doing, but it do...

Anderson. the wild swings in altitude come from radar data that the malaysians have put together, which is i would say significantly suspect just because of some technical issues and the distance from the radar to begin with. but the information that the plane is send together satellite, thats much more specific and i think much more accurate. its rudimentary. it doesnt give you a really good sense of exactly where it is and what its doing, but it does provide some help. and the only good news s...

Suggests, but confirms, because the ntsb, and the waib, the british equivalent, and the rest of the world concur. >> and we saw the data showing the left turn heading out this way, and it is over time that the experts studied the radar data which i have been told by the experts that it is more of a art than science, and to weed out the noise, and the same for the satellite data, and hunting and looking for other satellites who might have picked up anything to refine the search. >> and that is im...

Concluded this must be the missing plane that had turned its transponder off. you talk about other clues. its my understanding theyve pieced together several clues which makes them turn their direction to the west, to the indian ocean. the other one being the key information really that radar track that theyve had from the malaysian air force for some days now that showed the plane going north and taking that southwesterly turn. and remember, theyve had time now over the last couple of days to f...

Transponders on as planes would normally. this one does not. and they determined that this plane had no corresponding transponder and therefore concluded this must be the missing plane that had turned its transponder off. you talk about other clues. its my understanding theyve pieced together several clues which makes them turn their direction to the west, to the indian ocean. the other one being the key information really that radar track that theyve had from the malaysian air force for some da...

But even those on the east coast of the u.s. and other worldwide, i like most of the world really have never seen anything like this. its pretty incredible. >> commander marks, i wish you the best. thank you. >> very welcome. thank you. back with us aviation journalist and former ntsb member john golio. you just heard from the commander major shift westward along with the indian navy now being asked to participate in the search. what do you make of that? the commander describing this as shifti...

Shutting them off? >> we have some cases of electrical events that have shut off the transponders and communications. that has happened. once the aircraft sunday water, of course, electricals stop and all this transmissions from anything would end. the pings for several hours afterwards, im not sure where exactly thats coming from. i heard a variety of sources. i think that the real key to this is the analysis thats going on right now of all of the radar data, looking at the primary data from al...

Comfortable based on the radar data. what were getting now, the technical data points that the plane didnt make this turn. i dont think we have confirmed by technical data or sort of, you know, a source thats willing to be named that theyre confirming that the plane went down. look, i think everything -- its the logical conclusion. but we ought to be clear about when were drawing conclusions and looking at facts. we dont have the facts yet that the plane went down. thats what were beginning to h...

Back and forth and thats not how the plane would be doing it. we dont have an answer on why he would do that or what happened there. a lot of speculation spawn by all of this that somehow the pilots could have been involved in this, the transport and defense minister said that they had not yet searched the pilots homes. some u.s. aviation experts think that odd if, for no other reason, than to rule out the pilots involvement in any kind of a foul plot. in the meantime, though, lets take a look a...

Are getting now is from u.s. officials and remember it was earlier today malaysia time when they had the head of the investigation speaking to reporters and denying this report saying it was inaccurate and that is proven false. you had the contradictory statements coming out and when we first heard of this radar data, cnn heard of a senior military source and later officials in the prime ministers office saying thats not true. a lot of mixed signals and its not just frustrating us. its frustrati...
