Searchers thought they thought they had spotted the planes tail section which is where those devices are kept. But the official leading the search operation has now ruled that out. No tail section, at least not yet. Recovery crews did manage to retrieve two more bodies today, bringing the total number found to 39. The prevailing belief at this point is that most of the other victims are strapped into their seats still in the planes sunken fuselage wherever that might be. Our david molko is in surabaya in indonesia and, david, we are seeing for the first time the u. S. Effort to help find the wreckage of 8501. Talk to us about what were seeing in this video. Absolutely john. Lets bring up those pictures green the search area. The uss sampson the destroyer. This was a helicopter ride out to the destroyer. The head of Indonesias Armed forces went out to say thank you. He also visited an indonesian ship. Whats interesting from the pictures john we are getting a better sense of how challenging the weather conditions are and how the weather is really running the show. Visibility not great. You see those choppy seas. Difficult to sea the horizon. The thing here john again, divers we talked about this the past couple days they went below the surface, it was pitch black, couldnt see anything. On tuesday they werent even in the water, period. So thats the uss sampson the destroyer. The uss fort worth the other ship in the region located two large objects, the lastest one about 55 feet. Of course until they can get divers or equipment in the water they cant confirm whether or not its from flight 8501. David molko for us in surabaya thanks so much appreciate your reporting. I want to bring in our aviation analyst mary schiavo. A string of disappointments. Really reversals depending on how you look at it. First debris they thought might be pieces of a plane turned out to be from a ship wreck, now reports that officials belief they found the tail section, that turns out not to be true either. Are you concerned about the progress in this search . And also concerned about the information flow here . Well i am and this is starting to have a very familiar ring. Its deja vu because after the loss of adam air on january 1 2007, the United States went in to help and it was the same kind of thing. They were just hampered left and right by terrible weather. It was very close to the time frame as right now, january. The u. S. Ships were helping, i think it was mary sears back then that finally did find the black boxes and zeroed in on it but weather hampered the efforts and its really difficult because on day 30 the batteries will usually last a little bit beyond that depending upon the maintenance of the batteries and how frequently they were changed, et cetera on those black boxes but people will be getting worried, especially since the submersibles and divers cant go in when the water is so choppy. Mary the weather is getting in the way, but is the weather they have i mean, with time being a problem as you say, what progress can they be making in these circumstances . Because progress does seem to be needed here. Well i think by expanding the search area, theyre probably going to have to do something they did in 2007 and that is they put out rewards for people finding parts. They got people along the coastlines and shores looking for things. They tried to get all the assets that they could possibly put in place and hopefully the expense of the search we havent heard a word about it this time but in 2007 when the u. S. Went in the java sea at indonesias request, the issue of who was going to pay for the everexpanding search became quite an issue. Indonesia wanted the airline to pay for it. The airline said indonesia should pay for it and the u. S. Paid for a lot of it but at some Point Congress had to reappropriate and were way before that. That isnt happening now but it is a concern that as it drags on it will become difficult, parts will be dissipated and those everelusive black boxes could lose their pingers. So mary it turns out airasia was not licensed to fly on sunday. Now, i dont think the day of the week matters here but they didding . That they were not allowed to do apparently. We had heard before this was an airline with a flawless record upstanding member of the Aviation Community doing very well in that part of the world. Does this give you cause for concern that they werent playing by the let over the law . Oh absolutely. And this isnt the first that indonesia has been caught literally since 2007 both the United States federal Aviation Administration and icao has examined indonesia and found them sorely lacking and has been highly crate lyly critical. Thats why the United States limited carriers into the u. S. And the icao said indonesia maybe complied with about 40 , is all, of their safety recommendations so it did not surprise me and i think that as the investigation goes on, we will find more things amiss. Did flying without the permission cause the plane to go down . No. But did it contribute to it . Well, yes, because that means that youre slack in how you follow the laws and regulations and i think well find lax attitudes towards weather and oversight of pilots crew coordination et cetera. So it concerns me greatly but its not new. Indonesia has been under criticism for many years for not being standards. Mary schiavo, thanks so much for being with us. Well have more on this later this hour. Now other news this morning. History being made on capitol hill. Republicans taking control of both houses of congress for the first time in nearly a decade.

They were near the end of their shift when they ran to the scene. One officer was shot in the chest and arm, the other had surgery this morning for gunshots to his arm and lower back. The shootings come just a day after a funeral was held for one of two officers killed in an ambush last month. That of course helped fuel the tensions between the force and the citys mayor.

This of course; follows the murder of two officers in their car last month. I want to show you Surveillance Video of one of the suspects police say fired on the officers overnight. Another video here im not sure if youll see it you can see whim a large gun, a. 44. The officers were responding to this Armed Robbery at a Grocery Store. Theres the gun right there. This case and the case last month are very different. This new case falls in the middle of all the tension between new York City Police and new york citys mayor, bill de blasio. Evan perez joins me now. Evan first of all, talk to me about the circumstances of what happened here to the officers. They were not targeted we believe, as they were last month. What were the circumstances and how are they doing right now . Well theyre both expected to survive. One of them is 30 years old. Hes in critical condition, shot in the arm and lower back. The send officer is 38 years old, stable condition, he was shot in the chest and the arm. This was a very different circumstance from the two officers who were executed in brooklyn a couple weeks ago. These officers were getting off their shift around 10 30 last night when the call came in for this robbery at a Grocery Store in this part of the bronx. It was an Armed Robbery call and these officers decided to go chase it and they came across two suspects one of them had gone into a nearby Chinese Restaurant which is the picture were seeing on the screen there. Apparently one of the suspects opened fire on the officers. They returned fire and they made their getaway. One of them is this bearded man were seeing on screen. He is was believed to be hes at large. They both jumped into a white camaro they carjacked which was found nearby the scene. The police are now offering a 12,000 reward for information on this bearded man that we have been showing just now. Separately from this a man checked himself into the hospital nearby. Now police say they believe that at least one of these suspects was shot. Separately this man checks into a hospital nearby with a gunshot wound. Theyre not saying that they believe this is the suspect but they are checking into this. Theyre they need to interview him. Of course i said this falls in the middle of this tension between the middle of the new york city and the police force. The mayor was there at the hospital overnight saying all the things any Police Officer will tell you are the right things will say, these men were heroes for rushing to the scene. Nevertheless there are still cop, current and former highly highly critical of the mayor. I talked to one of them this morning, a former new York City Police detective who talks about the fact that there arent many people he claims that are standing beside the mayor right now. Lets listen to what he said. What democrat are coming out and supporting him . You dont see the black, africanamerican Officers Association such as the guardians, the hundred blacks in law enforcement, where is this broad support . You dont see other minority groups among the Police Department the hispanic society, coming out and supporting the mayor. You dont see one democratic elected person standing next to him coming to his aid in this. Hes on his own, he got himself into this trouble and he his stubbornness is not allowing him to get out of. It consider the source. That was a former new York City Police detective there. And the mayor certainly not backing down. He called the officers who turned their backs on him disrespect. He says theyre disrespectful against the families of the two officers. Its not true that hes not getting backing. Some of the people who have been doing these protests on the streets do have the mayors back and they say this that this has taken the attention away from some legitimate issues that the Police Departments not only here in new york but elsewhere around the country do have with the relationship with minority communities. The mayor has met with Union Officials once already. Lets see if that happens again to diffuse the tension. Evan perez, great to have you with us. Ahead at this hour she is the lone survivor of a plane crash, but this is not the first of its kind. You will hear from two others who survived crashes. Thats coming up next. I have a new picture i want to show you just into cnn. Its a tweet from the former Senate Majority leader soon to be Senate Minority leader harry reid who says working from home on Doctors Orders just wrapped up a good meeting with my leadership team. You can see him with patti murray, dick durbin and senator charles shoechumer. He broke bones in his ribs and face. You can see him, its hard to make it out but you can see a bandage on his face right there. He will not make it in to work today in his first day as minority leader of the new senate. This is what a Senate Leadership meeting looks like in harry reids pad in d. C. Apparently. We wish our best to the senator and his recover from his workout injury hopefully hell get back to work soon. 19 minutes after the hour.
