inspections will be completed within the next few days. problems have plagued previous models of that plane. cnn safety analyst david sucy spoke eaearlier with our michae holmes. >> because this is a maintenance door, i'd d be looking to see i that maintenancece door had bee removed for maintenance prior to this flight and if it had been reinstalled. in the pictures you can see the mounting brackets for that door and i don't see any evidence of those being torn off which would indicate to me that it's possible that the fastening structure wasn't done -- wasn't installed properly. so that's something that i'd be looking at first thing. >> yeah, and, in fact, looking at that now, we've got it up full on the screen there, it's a much bigger area. this isn't like a passenger window, this is a big area here. >> yeah, it is, and there are windows in that door, at least in some models, i'd have to look at this one specifically. but that -- so it would look like it's a window, but when it came off you can see -- and the structure isn't torn, either, on the top part of it, you can see

even your connecting flights are all going to be not departing or not starting to move until that time. this is a nationwide issue, it's not just a local issue. and, again, we will offer some snacks up front here. help yourself. >> reporter: so that's in state college, pennsylvania. but here in newark things are beginning to get back to normal. this was one of the first airports right here at nuke and atlanta hartsfield-jackson the first airports to get flights going again because of the backlog that was present. we will definitely see more delays here, but in terms of people being able to check in and hopefully by the end of the day get to their destination that has now resumed here at newark. >> keep your fingers crossed. appreciate it. thank you both. of course, the issue when the flights don't come in then they can't go out which can add to this chain reaction. cnn aviation safety analyst, former safety inspector david

displayed. it has you confirm that you read t it says, yeah, i read this, i know that. so it's shifted the responsibility now over to the pilots and the dispatchers. so we're going to continue to see delays because they're going to now have to check every airport, every route 25 miles both left and right on that route to see if there's anything that might affect that flight. so there's going to be continued delays. >> so, david, early on this morning as we were watching this, we saw that -- we've heard from passengers in london sitting on the tarmac for three hours but we know of flights taking off from europe. my mom is in the air right now, she took off from new haven just before 7:00 this morning, no notice in the airport, in notice on the planes. so pilots can fly without this information. what does that mean, though, when they are in the air? who is communicating with them? is it just the air traffic control towers? >> yeah, your mom is safe, first of all, let's say that because when the pilots take off what they can do rather than rely on the notams which is a

centralized database for anything that's abnormal they can also do their own checks, they can reach out to the airports, look at the individual airports to see what's going on at the receiving airport or any alternate airports that they might have selected and they can also do some end route information as well, but it's very time consuming. once they do that the big shift here is the fact that the pilots themselves and the dispatcher are taking on that responsibility to make sure that there's no abnormal situations. so the chances are that with your mom and i'm 100% certain of this that the pilots would not have taken off if they weren't sure that it was safe to do so. >> listen, i'm glad your mom is safe, that's important and it's good for folks who may be flying now who might be saying, wait a second, should i believe taking off right now in light of this. >> right. >> david, there is a lot of talk with a lot of these systems, legacy systems, that do air traffic control, et cetera, some of them are old, some of them aren't quite up to date. does this expose -- this system

relies on the notam system, always have, in my 30, 40 years in aviation i have never known this system to go down. so i think this is a significant problem right now. >> so to that point, david, what vulnerabilities in this system could this expose? and, again, we're early, they haven't figured out what brought it down, but the idea that a system like this could bring basically the whole air transportation system down and very quickly, listen, that's worri worrisome. >> it's very worrisome and even more so worrisome to me is i just went on to check my notams because we use these for pilots up and down the row, even drone pilots use this notam system to see what's going on in any particular operational area. here is what bothers me, the faa says, it's okay, go ahead and fly, however, when i go to the notam search and look at it right now it says due to system processing delays recently entered notams may not be

and was unable to get back in. at the time was quoting the official an investigator saying quote the guy outside is knocking lightly on the door and there's no answer. and then he hits the door stronger and no answer. there is never an answer. you can hear he is trying to smash the door down. again the "new york times" reporting, lufthansa is not commenting on it. we haven't been able to verify the times reporting. joining us is david sucy, richard quest and dr. sanjay gupta. there's two main ideas behind this if the "new york times" report cigarette correct, according to what this investigator said based on the flight voice recorder that there's something nefarious the pilot wanting to bring the plane down or some sort of medical emergency. does the medical explanation make sense to you if there was a

switch be recording, would changes to that switch be recorded. >> that's an interesting question. on the later aircraft i'm sure that the answer is yes. this is an early aircraft that's obviously been retrofitted to meet the new standards after 9/11. after 9/11 there was extensive research done and new protocols developed on how to protect the cockpit, how pilots were to respond to a potential hijacking. i can't say way surance that in an older aircraft like this that these procedures, that these positions would be reflected in the data recorder. i'm not sure. >> do you have any idea what the standard procedure would be on this if one pilot left the cockpit? >> well, i don't know. i think david could probably speak more authoritatively on that. david? >> what do you make of that? >> first i want to point out all the airbus 320 captains out

>> they have wide discretion. i'm somewhat concerned that if that was going to be done one would think that it would probably to be done already as opposed to sending this forward the article 32 hearing which usually telegraphs the case may be heading towards a court martial process. course there's the possibility of plea bargaining like in a civil criminal justice system. >> david you read the statement that bowe bergdahl wrote. it's horrific to read what he went through. he was held for five years. you were held under different circumstances by the taliban for seven months. what was your reaction when you read what he went through was. >> harrowing, horrific, same reaction you had. it's credible to me. he talks about trying to escape repeatedly, roughly a dozen times. he actually got away twice. in one case he was captured very quickly within ten, 15 minutes. a second case and we heard this from the taliban. he was free for nine days.

he was wandering around, didn't know where he was. he said he was so weak he eventually sort of collapsed and was recaptured. it's tragic that he was out for nine days yet could not find his way to safety. >> i know, david, you communicated with the family. did they expect these charges? >> they did not. they don't want to comment at this point. they are worried about the military judicial process but they had no warning at all about what would happen. there's one interesting nugget in the document. the big question which is why did bowe bergdahl leave his base. >> i obviously asked him that as well and he refused to answer that in our interview. >> that's the real thing. his fellow soldiers wants to know. the public want to know why did he do this. he has to be held accountable. there was a reference he was allowed into the army with a waiver. that hasn't come out publicly and friends of bowe bergdahl
