This dramatic discovery has been 15 months in the making and francis rivera my colleague, is here with the latest on this. it really is a big reminder to think how far weve come since it went missing march of 201. >> 15 months. you can forget the developments since then. lets get everyone back up to speed. several unanswered questions remain. lets start with a boeing 777. it took off from kuala lumpur at 12:41 a.m. the flight was carrying 227 passengers from 14 countries including the united sta...

This damage thats happening on a nearby road. this brings you into the storms. >> just by touching the map. >> the one called weather radio. dont be fooled by the name. it will read to you through siris voice alerts from the national weather service. it actually shows you, you can see where lightning is currently striking on the map. let me bring it back up here. its amazing that you can set this up. while its $5 download on this, its got lightning strikes around the country. you can set youro o...

And ive called a friend of mine who is an aviation expert he happens to also be in australia. had a lock at some of the radar tracking and saw they were at 36,300 feet or something, and 350 knots. he was sort of speculating as we all are at the moment that that was a bit slow. is that a risk in this situation when youre climbing to get above or around a thunderstorm what happens if your speed is a little too slow? >> if any circumstance if your speed is a bit too slow thats not good. it also can...

Have a repeat of 370 where they did not look at the radar immediately, where they did not look at every possible source to locate the plane. weve learned from 370 that it is absolutely vital at this moment to grab every possible positioning clue that you can. you cant wait a minute. you cant wait an hour. they must grab all that radar now and start tracking it so it is not lost like 370. >> and as we look at this route, as we look at the route the flight was flying from surabaya, indonesia on it...

370. but they did indicate that they did have radar tracking. so whether or not they have it at this point the point is to get the information immediately so they do not spend time -- for example, on 370 four days were lost searching in the south china sea, and later the malaysian military indicated that they knew the plane had taken a turn and gone up and around indonesia. so at this point its important not to have any sort of wild hares, if you will, and look at places it should not be but ins...

Look chaotic. authorities insist between early radar tracking and later satellite data, the plane must still be somewhere here off the coast of australia. and they believe they will find it if only they keep looking. but that is becoming a harder sell and the anger more difficult for families to contain as the disappointing months mount and the fate of flight 370 with everyone aboard remains a mystery. tom foreman, cnn, washington. >> miles obrien is in barrow, alaska tonight. miles, the questio...

Information on this radar tracking from malaysian because it just seems impossible on what was performed. but if you takt it from the steps of nefarious, there are a lot of holes in it. granted, there are holes in the mechanical theory if you do a smoke or fume type situation also. but, you know, i lean toward the mechanical side. im open to it because everything seems to have holes to it. >> youre right about that. les abend, thank you for joining us. >> my pleasure. ten people now dead after...

Used by bringing in more evidence on the radar tracking of this aeroplane. and the location is exactly on this track that the ships were told to go and have a look at. so theres some supporting evidence that, yes, they are the black boxes. >> we listened to this press conference live from angus houston, paul. you were optimistic about this, but now cnn is hearing that the frequency detected was 33.3 kilohertz, not 37.5. do you still believe that these are, in fact, the pingers, and is it an exac...

The original immarcet pings. its the seventh recalculation used by bringing in more evidence on the radar tracking of this aeroplane. and the location is exactly on this track that the ships were told to go and have a look at. so theres some supporting evidence that, yes, they are the black boxes. >> we listened to this press conference live from angus houston, paul. you were optimistic about this, but now cnn is hearing that the frequency detected was 33.3 kilohertz, not 37.5. do you still beli...

In russia allusions into and out of mogadishu. no air traffic control cape blth and a lot of long inland runways. >> thats a great point. i mean, remember, we like to think of the globe as something thats perfectly mapped and completely internetted with every inch of the ocean covered by radar tracking, but the truth is thats just not the case. airliners travel often times thousands of miles out of radar contact, and as you know, the indian ocean is a vast, vast, vast expanse of water. most of i...
