Sea. they're activated by salt water but they have to manually turn them on, they don't want to run on them because the batteries will run down. >> what about the transmission of data? the engines we know, the boeing triple 7 transmit data as to the other functions and the mechanical devices that are inside of the plane. now, we also know that they tried to do this for up to seven hours afterwards, at least tried to connect satellite-wise. so doesn't that give us some information. doesn't boeing have the ability to monitor such things? >> yeah, they do. but this is the rolls royce engine so it...

Sea off the west coast of thailand and berma -- >> you don't continue to fly four or five hours off course where the transponder just happens to be turned off. it is not making any sense, is it if you put those pieces of the puzzle together. >> you're right, there has to be human involvement, even with the transponder, the failure, there are battery backups. secondly if the plane was in distress there are multiple systems for -- you could radio for help and electronically signal for help. there are things that could be done. this is interesting, the four hours of data that is said to be coming...

Hours. this has been denied and corrected as well by the malaysians who claim this is not true but what we do know there was a lot of fuel left on this plane and that it could have kept on going for another at least four or five more hours. >> you talk about a burst of data that apparently gets sent from the rolls royce engine back to the ground, right? >> correct. >> rolls royce denying it? i know malaysian airlines is but what does rolls royce say. >> i don't know yet. claim that rolls royce and boeing both have denied it. >> it seems like pulling teeth to get information out of malaysia to ...

Costello and others, they had a wing tip damage, boeing fixed it, taken care of. they had some frozen fuel lines of a rolls royce engine, taken care of. the aircraft itself is structurally sound. it's highly unlikely that a plane with that -- it's like an iphone in the sky. it's beeping and binging, there's texts, data, voice, satellite. it's highly unlikely that all those communication systems would simultaneously go out, without something catastrophic happening within seconds that would disable that aircraft. number two is that we don't know where, in fact, the plane and the debris field is....
