I dont think anyone can reach any other conclusion. its very sad weve not been able to find anyone living now for about 36, 48 hours. its extremely discouraging and the most discouraging thing is, you know, we were hopeful that we would find folks who might be protected by a car or a structure. but the force of this landslide just defies imagination. the cars that have been found have literally been twisted into corkscrews and torn in half. >> lets go to george howell who is joining us from near...

Fariq hamid. >> i have teams working around the clock. but i expect it to be done very shortly, within a day or two to finish that work. >> tonight investigators at the fbi lab in quantico, virginia, are working to finish, looking through those drives. sources tell me investigators are still trying to build a profile of both mens backgrounds using information found on those computers as well as from interviews that malaysian officials have done with their friends and their families. but wolf, ag...

Feet. searches of the area resumed today after a delay caused by bad weather. but the last planes have now returned to base without finding anything definitive. meanwhile, specialized equipment for the united states arrived in australia today. the equipment includes a blue fin underwater vehicle that would be used if and where officials discover where the plane went down. a possible debris field is raising hopes of locating flight 370, but officials warn, finding anything from the plane could st...

>> reporter: so with all the equipment and trucks out here we hear from officials that it really comes down the volunteers and the search-and-rescue teams, the boots on the ground, people searching, scanning, looking in those void spaces where homes may have been demolished or cars may be buried in the mud, wolf, as they dont look for victims. the next news conference, we hope to get more information in the next two hours. latest information we have is 16 are confirmed dead and additional eight ...

Malaysia to start storing the batteries properly in cool surroundings. they did so for a while, but then went back to the old ways. now, on the other side, the makers of the pingers, they say that, frankly, the pingers and the batteries, theyre designed to work in all sorts of extreme temperatures and that shouldnt really be a factor. its more the age of the unit rather than the batteries and such. but it is a worry. i would say, wolf, since this is the battery at the end of it. this is the ping...

Just have got a little bit more remote. >> what do you make, richard, of this "usa today" report, the newspaper "usa today" report quoting a high ranking malaysian law enforcement source suggesting that the pilot, the senior pilot, the 53-year-old pilot deliberately took command and diverted that plane, flew over the indian ocean for whatever reason, u.s. sources telling us we have -- that they have no confirmation of this whatsoever. theyve not come to any definitive conclusion. what do you mak...

Particular trash can or a particular person or a particular car, something relatively small. thats essentially what theyre trying to do. in most cases theyre only going to have two or three hours over the city to look before they have to fly all the way back to refuel and start again the next day. so wolf, that gives you a sense of why this is so difficult even with all these great tools out there. something spotted in the water, finding it is a big, big challenge and will remain so. >> a huge s...

Trying to find 176 people who remain unaccounted for right now. lets go straight to cnns george howell on the scene for us with the very latest. george? >> reporter: wolf, we understand today that a volunteer search and rescue worker was injured when a piece of debris was thrown up by helicopter watch over head. that hitting him in the head. we understand that the injuries are minor injuries. still, its a difficult job but rescuers are doing their best in the mud and muck. we understand today th...

>> and you know wolf, we cant say it often enough. the reality is, at this point, nobody knows what happened to flight 370. wolf? >> that is the reality. thank you, barbara. not everyone has convinced that the crash was caused by malicious intent. there are some that say a catastrophic activity is more likely. well explore that possibility more at this hour. in the meantime, lets bring in miles obrien, our aviation analyst, peter geolz of the national transportation board as well as tom fuentes....

Outerspace, not here that person doesnt simply embarrass himself. he embarrasses his entire network. when a retired general goes on this network and talks about how he has sources who tells him the plane is in pakistan or eastern iran, and it will probably be used as a weapon to attack the united states, or an aircraft carrier or israel, that doesnt just embarrass him, that embarrasses, -- that speaks to the credibility, in my view of the entire network. and one more thing, when you go out on cn...
