what we now know from the malaysian -- from people close to the investigation now is that those jets were scrambled. around about 8:00 a.m. in the morning. remembering that about 7:30 a.m. that saturday morning, malaysian airlines had told the military that the plane had gone missing. now, it isn't until later that the malaysian military, as a matter of deduction, basically they take their radar, remove from it all the aircraft that have known identifications and therefore they can identify the track that was the radar track of the missing mh-370. this is how they did it. but that was later. they scrambled the jets as a precautionary measure. but they didn't tell the authorities. i have to add this. but they didn't tell the authorities for another couple of days, until the tuesday after the saturday. hence, we get into this area where one part of the government say one thing, another saying the other. chris? >> confusing. nic, you know what also, very helpful. thank you for bringing us the information. get back to the control room so we can come back to you.
