>> these planes are extraordinarily robust. they can take almost anything the weather can toss at it. david mentioned about testing wing loads at cessna. these things are tough. where you get into issues is how pilots respond. what is the plane telling them and are they correctly interpreting? we wont know that until we get the black box. this weather in and of itself was enough to cause this tragedy. >> i mean is it realistic, is it fair to liken it to if you skid on ice as a driver and what yo...

Its in the pipeline. currently the simulator just simulates impending stall. in other words, the plane is about to stall, but they dont really fly deeper into a full stall. the simulators dont have the capacity to do that. now, if the plane accidentally wanders closer to a full stall, the pilots know what to do. unfortunately, they never get a chance to practice that. the current simulators are calibrated based on test data. they do fly planes into stall for test purposes. but its very limited. ...

Trace: its a great point because a few years ago we saw a plane that came in, and the right landing gear was folded up and the plane had to land on that wing. its very very tricky, and its these types of things that you never get to do in a simulator -- leah: right. trace: -- because thats just not what you do. leah: right. and even in a simulator you can use these types of is scenarios, but youre not going to get the same feel, and the problem is you really a lot of times what the airplane feel...

Aircraft and then you can reconstruct the last half hour the last two hours of the flight of that aircraft. you can sit in the simulator and watch what happened up to the time of impact. >> and mary skee yafo i want to get to you. i want to get to this headline in our continuing coverage of the search for qz8501. press conference out of jakarta by the main search and rescue agency there, leading this effort they believe, their early conjecture is that this plane is quote, on the bottom of the se...

They want to go from 32,000 feet to 38,000 feet. expecting there to be less turbulence. you have that upward draft and very sip call for thistypical for this time of year. it falls behind this weather system. so you have this constant motion that is taking place within the vicinity not just in the thunderstorm but within the vicinity of the thunderstorm. on top of that it depends on what the pilots reaction to this is as well. you have a very skilled pilot, he knows how to make the adjustments f...

Because weve actually talked about that on several occasions where were also invited, not only the media, but other community leaders to go in and try out the simulator they have, the firearm simulator so you can get a sense of what its like to be out on patrol. were encouraging a lot of our colleagues to join us in that aspect, so they would have a hands-on with regards to being out there and being involved in a police activity so they can see the quick judgments that have to be made. i think o...

Passengers catapulted into the air. look closely at this hole punched in by a passengers head. in all, 20 injured at the south african airways flight that crossed the equator from johannesburg en route to hong kong. some passengers evacuated in cervical collars. >> hit his head on the top of the roof. >> reporter: turbulence can form in the calmest conditions, often caused by pockets of air. we flew in a simulator in miami. where would you feel the most turbulence in a flight like this? >> in th...

Air. look closely at this hole punched in by a passengers head. in all, 20 injured at the south african airport that equator from johannesburg en route to hong kong. some passengers evacuated in cervical collars. >> hit his head on the top of the roof. >> reporter: turbulence can form in the calmest conditions, often caused by pockets of air. we flew in a simulator in miami. where would you feel the most turbulence in a flight like this? >> in the back of the airplane. >> reporter: on average, 2...

And rail carrier security and counterterrorism surveillance. >> pre9-11 it was very reactive. post9-11 has become mo pro-active a response. if there is a bomb in new york city underwater, who is going to do it? >> training mirrors that of military pilots and includes 25 hours in this. the units simulator. ive never flown anything. can it happen? >> hop right in. if you can manage, i think you got it. >> i see the statue of liberty. were doing all right. enough of this. lets see how the pros do i...
