Is a 100% certainty that it's from mh370. >> so anthony, let's say that they do confirm it is from mh370. is that enough evidence? is there enough information on that piece that can maybe help them track down where the rest of it the black boxes, et cetera, and whatever happened to that flight? >> i don't think there will be enough evidence on that small piece to help us pinpoint the site, but the fact that it came up on reunion island is consistent with the latest studies with regard to wind currents, sea currents and then adding in the wave action that would suggest that we are searching in ...

This is the current position and direction that the sea currents are moving. they have changed. instead of being parallel which makes sense to have debris here off to the southeast, i would suspect maybe in the days ahead we could find debris on the coast of borneo. the island. i'm sure authorities are looking closely at this region and contacting the villagers and the communities that they will find debris on this coastline. we have a long way to go but the good news s. the java sea is one of the most shallow in the world. on average, 150 feet. but where the debris is it's about 80 to 100 fee...

Effort, yesterday we went out and dropped some self-locating gps. those will be used in the coming days for modeling because the sea currents will carry those things and they will be used to model and articulate where the next stage of the search is. it continues to ee solve. >> do you still believe that you will find something on the surface of the indian ocean? >> we have an aircraft that's been recently upgraded and people are well-trained and motivated. we're doing our upmost to help with the recovery. if there is something on the surface, i'm very confident that we will find it but it's a...

Now having been retrieved, as a lay person i say to myself, if they are representative of malaysian flight 370 they would have had to emanate from one spot. it seemed to me a model could be concocted that would show with the sea currents the debris would all be able to be traced back to one location. i don't feel like i'm articulating this well but hopefully you know what i'm trying to say. >> i know exactly what you're trying to say. especially in this new area. this new area doesn't have the roaring 40s doing gown underneath. this isn't an area where you've got patterns as much as you did be...

>> i think it's really just a matter of flight conditions and darkness, to be honest. it's 11:00 at night there. you have now had today five planes in that search zone. you had three p-3s, these sophisticated submarine hunters with those radar -- with that radar technology. those coming from australia and new zealanzealand, also a p-8, very sophisticated, most modern sub hunter the united states has, and a c-130 cargo plane was out there as well, dropping these buoyant markers. the idea is they transmit constant data about the sea currents and the ocean conditions, and that information transmi...
