narrow the search zone, again, word on that any time now. we're also hearing from flight 370 that it was the captain there on the left, not the first officer, who uttered those worded to air traffic control. that has gone back and forth, remember, from others who said it was the co-pilot. and they suggested that the plane descended sharply after crossing the malaysian peninsula. that and much more, let's start with michael holmes, so the air force michael detecting another signal after the other four that were heard. how did they detect it? >> yeah, it is fascinating, anderson, what they are. they are called sonobuoys, or buoys, they are dropped from the aircraft and are being spread around the search area as an added tool if you will. electronic ears, listening to anything from malaysian flight 370. they can carry up to 70 of these, peppering the ocean

field. one has already picked up four pings from the towed pinger locator. they drop a line down from a thousand feet and listen basically. it seems one of them got a hit, a ping from the frequency hit from the data recorder. that has given even more optimism to those searches. preliminary data, though -- >> let's talk about that preliminary data. i understand the testing was done overnight to try to analyze if the signal came from flight 370. do we know when we'll get an update on that, or when the process is? >> well, yeah, hopefully today. you're right. the plane gets the signal back from these buoys. and they have sent that data off. we're in perth, they sent it to adelaide, where it is being examined. it is a couple of thousand miles from here. but it is being analyzed. we're waiting to hear what the data says. but as we said it is within the frequency range of the data recorder. and also one of the

spokespersons said it does appear to be a manmade signal. again, always caution but that would be ping number five. >> and we're hearing now that that was the captain that gave the last word from the plane. are they sure about that? because initially they said it was the co-pilot and what leaked out arrest being ts being the le not in fact the last words, so how do they know it was the pilot? >> it really is extraordinary, really, that we're still just getting confirmation on things like this. initially they said it was the co-pilot and that the wording was different. now they have pilots together and got them to confirm, pilots who knew both the pilot and co-pilot, and said it was the phrase as we know now, good night, malaysian flight 370. and that is pretty standard

information to be used when you're exiting one area of radar and going into another. but at all points, the confusion we're getting, who said what, who did what? and when, which is all crucial information to the investigation. >> it certainly is, michael holmes, we'll continue to stay tuned there in case we get more information on the final ping, and efforts to analyze the latest water signal. the tone, as you note, notably cautious, for their consistent tone throughout this search, that is as michael mentioned the way that many -- or not the way many are characterizing malaysian officials, tonight, "ac360's" randi kaye has more. >> reporter: frustration with the malaysian government.

>> we want an explanation for the delay. >> reporter: it was the satellite company. not the malaysian government which figured out the flight plan and provided vital information to narrow the search area. >> i can say there is a strong correlation with the southern route and absolutely no correlation with the northern. it went south. >> reporter: but despite that information, malaysian authorities kept directing some searches in the complete opposite direction, including the coast of vietnam. >> until we have said we have located mh-370 search and rescue operations will continue in both corridors. >> reporter: those searches taxed limited resources and the clock was ticking every second on the plane's black boxes. eventually they did abandon the search in the northern corridor and focused solely on the southern indian ocean but valuable time was lost. also in march, the investigators determined the plane had flown

for hours after its last communication based on satellite data from systems on board. the malaysian reaction, they denied it. but only days later the malaysian prime minister told reporters the plane had indeed flown for about seven hours after that last communication. and what about the last words from the cockpit? >> as far as the pilot communications, i understand according to the record it was about 119 -- >> 119 where we got the last transmission from the cockpit that says all right, good night. >> reporter: not exactly. they got that wrong, too. admitting later on it was actually good night, malaysian 370. a mistake that quite frankly is hard to fathom since they had the transcript of air traffic control's communication with the cockpit. not only was that incorrect, but so was their original statement about who said it.

>> initial investigation indicated it was the co-pilot who basically spoke the last time. >> reporter: now, sources tell us it was the captain. more than a month of dubious information and denials. >> have done quite an admirable job. >> reporter: and still no airplane, randi kaye, cnn, new york. >> well, the ping, the altitude change, there will be a lot to talk about. i'm joined by aviation analyst richard quest, and miles o'brien, former transportation inspector mary schiavo who investigates accidents. and if the ping came from the sonobuoy, it could help to locate them?

>> absolutely, it will be another brick, if you will, that will help you determine where the plane was at its final resting place. every time they get another ping that was hugely beneficial. that is why angus houston said you don't get any second chances, he is going to be absolutely certain that the batteries were dead. >> and he estimated maybe a day or two more of listening for ping sounds before they give up on that and go under water. i wonder if they would extend that if they get a fifth ping. >> i think if they have any reasonable expectation that those batteries are still good and the pingers are still pinging, they will continue to do what they are doing. you know, aviation is all about extra margin, so when a company says 30 days of extra battery

life that battery is probably good for at least 20%, which would put it at 36 days, maybe even a little bit longer. so my concern is that the pingers were activated in the first place. as we saw in air france 447 apparently they didn't operate at all because there was some sort of damage, but assuming they have been maintained properly they should be pinging. >> and there were sources that said the plane disappeared from military radar after about 120 nautical miles. if that was true the plane would have dipped between 4,000 and 5,000 feet. do you buy that? because altitudes have been all over the place, so many sources are saying so many different things over the last month. >> right, we haven't seen any reliable altitude information yet. think about the practicality of it. they were at 35,000 feet. and then for 125 miles they will

drop 35,000 feet of altitude and then turn around and climb back up for another 30,000 feet of altitude if they had time to do it. it is a maneuver without a purpose. because they were not invisible. there was just a problem picking them up on the radar, so they surmised they must have just lost altitude. >> i think there were altitude differenti differentials, i think something happened, which we don't know. if you look at all the other investigations, whether it is qantas with the engine, air france 447, british airways, the triple 7, roughly four hours after the event you get either a preliminary report or a statement of facts and it doesn't tell you much more other than what they factually know to be correct. that is what we are missing now here. the investigative authorities, there really is no good reason

not to say the plane took off. the plane did this. we reported this. we saw that. the altitude was this. you're not asking anybody to draw any inferences. and the question -- and i can hear somebody saying, there is a criminal investigation into it. it wouldn't impact them one iota. so i think we're getting to the point where the investigation has to now provide its first preliminary report. >> miles, you're skeptical of this radar data, aren't you? >> very much so. we keep talking about how this was a pattern of radar evasiveness. but even if they did go down to 4,000 feet there are not many pilots who would suggest that flying over water that course to the malaysian land mass that at 4,000 feet you wouldn't be painted by radar. if you really want to avoid radar you get down to about 100 feet off the surface and he was not going to do that at night. so i don't buy that for a moment. he was attitude over the

malaysian area, and then this is the malaysians embarrassed they have a bad radar system as far as i can see. >> you know, richard you talk about other investigations. i'm trying to think, has there been an investigation or crash like this or a missing plane like this where there has been no debris? that is the extraordinary thing. they're hearing pings, but no debris. >> correct, no debris, they're still searching and refined the search area 500 miles west to look for the track. but no debris. that is the other big problem with this investigation. because there is so much scrutiny on individual words, things frankly you wouldn't normally look at. what the final words were, it would not be as significant, anything about it. it wouldn't normally be significant, it would get lost in the morass of the investigation, but in this case because there is nothing there, anderson, there is not a single fact on which you can hang your

hat yet as to what happened and why. >> all right, we have to take a quick break and also a quick note. we just have a new map from the australian officials, it looks like a map. we'll take a quick break and analyze it when we come back. we'll take a look at what actually happened to airliners when they go down in the water and the kind of clues that can help investigators determine what went wrong. later we'll determine why the triple 7 may have descended, according to the new information given in the hours before the final contact was lost. also, a very scary moment on stage for hillary clinton and how she narrowly avoided something thrown at her. we'll be right back. >> was that a bat?

for example, if it went down in a steep dive at high speeds. that is what happened to an alaskan airlines jet that plunged off the pacific, killing everybody on board. much of the plane sank, but not all of it. >> the wings were torn apart, there was a large debris field and the debris field was fairly scattered. and even weeks later parts and pieces and personal effects were still being combed from the ocean including by fishermen. >> reporter: what if there was a catastrophe in the plane's last few seconds where it exploded in the air before crashing? that is what happened with twa in 1996, and pan am flight 103, over lockerbie. >> in lockerbie, scotland, it was scattered over many, many miles. some pieces found as far away as

ten or so miles at least. in the case of twa 800, the same thing. the debris field was very, very wide. >> and then there is this scenario. the hijacking of an ethiopian airlines during 1996, in that case, the pilots ran out of fuel and were forced to make an intentional landing in the indian ocean, even in that scenario, there would be debris above the water. >> you hit it hard enough, it just destroys the airplane's integrity. you will have things open up, compartments, sections of the airplane that have items that will float. >> reporter: indeed, the sentiment is widely agreed upon by experts. here in southern california's aviation safety program, the director says crashes on the water will almost certainly leave floating debris. to listen gering question, -- the lingering question, how far

will it float? the question came up after captain sully sullenberger landed. >> he did an incredible job of flying. but he landed on the river. and the river is pretty relaxed, let's say, by comparison with an ocean where you have swells of ten, 12, 16 feet. and it is pretty difficult to make that kind of landing on water. >> reporter: the search, of course, continues for the wreckage. the landing scenarios just mentioned all part of the investigation. gary tuchman, cnn, los angeles. well, this was neither the hudson, or the pacific. you see on the piece with david souci, also the analyst, david

gallo, co-leader of the flight for air france 447. and when you look at the miracle on the hudson, just to reiterate, completely unlikely in the indian ocean. >> you know, i thought that at first, as you watch the search go on there are times where it is relatively calm out there. you do have the swells as opposed to the surface waves. i'm not ruling that out still. >> but still, the plane has not been found and no debris has been found. >> that is what makes me think it didn't break up. so if you think about that -- >> but it would still have sunk. >> well, yeah, it would have, of course. except for the fact that it was outfitted with out-flow valves that you can turn on, they have to be manually done in the sullenberger landing, those were automatical lally deployed wher floats. but if somebody were

incapacita incapacitated, i doubt that it would float. so it raises a lot of questions. >> mary, there are any scenarios that you can think about that would not leave debris? >> well, sure, not that it didn't leave debris but it would leave debris where you didn't find it. there was a crash in the end ocean way back in 1987, and one of the black boxes were found 16,000 feet under water. they looked for the debris, but looked east, and not west. they actually had to give rewards to the people to turn in the debris and eventually found i think it was 194 pieces. so sometimes it is there, you just can't see it. that could also be a scenario here. >> david gallo, after this length of time what could still possibly be floating? >> well, if you can keep water from entering into the air pockets it can float still today and a long time to come. there are things floating in the ocean for decades. the same waters, anderson, not in world war ii, the major

australian war ship went down, the hms sidney, not a trace. >> without a trace. >> without a trace. and this had 600 men on board, in the battle of the german raiders, there was a battle actually going on off the coast. >> took them some 20 years to find it? >> it was just found a couple of years ago. the only thing that was found was a single raft found on christmas island, way to the north, thousands of miles north, many years later. >> that is incredible, an entire ship going down, and one raft -- >> yeah, and they were looking very hard for that, the australian air force was looking for that. for a long time we wondered how do you lose a war ship, without a life preserver and a bit of wreckage on this thing. >> are the buoys as effective as the pinger locater? because the sonobuoys only go

down a thousand feet. >> yeah, you want to get to where -- >> what is the amount -- >> thousand meters, depends, changes day by day, a thousand meters and left. >> so sonobuoys are very effective. >> they're very quiet, there is no ship attached. and usually there are many listening at the same time. >> they still have divers in the water looking for debris. i mean, that seems like just a complete shot in the dark. >> seems like they are just looking for luck. there is no reason why they are there, doesn't make sense why they have divers. >> and david gallo, somebody looking for world war ii planes, just with equipment and other divers, and unless you know where exactly to look you can be ten feet away from it. >> you can be ten feet from titanic without that kind of lighting and won't realize it is there. positively, been there myself. >> that is incredible.

. as reported earlier tonight in the search for flight 370, a possible new ping. the fifth so far has been picked up by sonar buoys, we're waiting for confirmation. there is also information on the flight itself. malaysian authorities said the pilot, not the co-pilot was the last to speak with the air traffic controllers. and also the plane was said to have dipped to an altitude between 4 and 5,000 feet. i want to caution there is a lot of skepticism on that from our panel. martin savidge is there in the

flight simulator. the idea that the flight could have descended to anywhere from 4,000 to 5,000 feet for some 120 nautical miles, what happens when a 777 is flying at that altitude. >> yeah, i'll point out we're both part of that skeptic parade you're talking about. we're at 7,000 feet, we could never take you in enough time down from 35,000 feet to 4,000ment a4,000. and it is daylight, you might have noticed. we did it for the purpose of demonstration so you could see it a lot better. but when you take the plane down, this is the simulator, in the strait of malacca, testing the speed and distance. so now, the aircraft beginning to level off. taking us to 3500 maybe, 4,000, this is it. we're at a speed of just over 3 -- we're settling. but we're going to get into about 250 knots.

it flies fine here. but if you're a pilot of a triple 7, this is a jumbo jet, what would you be feeling flying at 4,000 feet or so? >> it is such a weird altitude to be flying a big jet. normally we're up at higher altitudes so it is very inefficient to fly. >> normally, this low if anything were to go wrong, you don't have anything to fix. >> yeah, you're minimizing the options, also flying in the soup of the day. one of the reasons we fly so high is to get above that weather, down here you're injyoe just dealing with all that. >> so anderson, it is not that the plane can't fly, being out of control or difficult. it is just a very low altitude for a very big jet. >> would it actually avoid radar detection at that altitude? it still seems pretty high. >> no, no, i mean, mitchell,

i'll ask you. >> no, no, there is no way. >> it is way, way, still too high. if your goal is to avoid radar that is -- you're not doing it. >> and richard, the other thing is, i mean, it is still too high to -- it is high enough that you would still hit radar but it is also low enough that somebody on the ground would have a better chance of seeing it. >> oh, yes, you would certainly notice a triple 7 steaming along at 4,000 feet. and that would certainly be very busy waterways. and also what sort of fuel burn are you doing at 4,000 feet? because by then, mitchell, you must be really burning up quite a bit of gas. >> yeah, we're burning over 8,000 kilograms per hour per engine right now, which is easily double of what you would be doing at 35. >> so this -- not only earlier was there a lot of skepticism about it, but when you see it in the simulator, you certainly see

miles. what do you think about it disappearing and then reappearing? do you buy that? >> no, i don't buy that whole radar avoiding scenario. if the altitude changed, from 41,000 feet at one point, we've heard 12,000, 4,000 now. if any of that is true i suppose you could build a scenario there was a struggle going on in the cockpit potentially. none of that has anything to do with radar evasion. that is a plane skimming along at 100 feet off the surface. and pitch black conditions you would never try that. going across malaysia with 7,000 peaks you definitely wouldn't try that. as i said to go to 4,000 feet in that busy shipping channel and to expect you would be below radar that is pretty lousy radar if you're not picked up on radar at that altitude. >> and i guess the most important bit of information

really in this hour is really the sonar ping. this idea of a fifth sonar bing that a sonobuoy picked up. >> yes, they're analyzing it, michael holmes said no doubt, of the australian carrier. we haven't got number five there yet, and wouldn't have until angus houston confirms it. we should hear in the next hour or so whether they will all hold another press conference, which of course will keep us all here late. >> gentlemen, coming up, the simulator, still to come, we'll see what it is like for loved ones waiting for news. and sarah bajc, whose partner was on the plane. we have talked to her over the last several weeks. she wants to keep attention on the people on board this plane and also keep pressuring the searchers. keep pressuring authorities to continue being transparent and giving out as much information

. what is frustrating is the disappearance with malaysian air flight 370. for family members the wait is beyond excruciating. philip wood was an executive who was on the flight, his partner, sarah bajc, joins me. sarah, there is clearly a lot of missteps by the malaysians in this investigation. how are you dealing with the fact that it seems every few days something in the story changes or the information changes or comes to light? >> well, like most of the other families i continue to just push by asking more questions. sooner or later we're going to get to the truth. i mean, either we're going to find the plane and there will be

a conclusion found as to why it was taken, or why it was crashed. and so whether the continued data that we're getting is constantly changed or not we still have to keep asking for it. >> at this point, as you know obviously the searchers are hearing pings that they say are consistent with airplane black boxes, five total instances. obviously, we have not seen a shred of debris. do you believe the pings are coming from flight 370? >> it is impossible to tell. i mean, from what i have read about this technology that exact same ping signal could come from other things. and it is a possibility that there was some piece of equipment submerged there that nobody is remembering. or it has migrated from another location. but i have also read the data from experts that seem to believe that it is the plane.

so i mean, i can't judge. i'm no expert in this. >> we have talked in the past when you have been on your facebook page finding philip wood and family and friends to help keep up the search. i know that you have been getting answers to questions as you said you have had for sometime. what do you feel is not being explored? >> well, we still don't know why or how. and you know it is a real quandary, because on the one hand i want to be a logical and thoughtful person and say okay, i get it, the plane has crashed and we need to find the black box. the scientific inquiry says that there was probably an instant on the plane and the pilots were just able to get everybody help

and then they ran out of fuel. but emotionally it is impossible to accept that because then it means there is no more hope. and you know if we run out of hope we stop asking questions and then the investigation dies. so we just have to keep asking until we find something. >> you talk about holding onto hope. do you still have hope that philip is alive somewhere? i know in the past when we talked about it you talked about feeling his spirit. is that still the case? >> it is still the case. but i think i felt his spirit since i met him. and so you know, maybe what i was confusing as physical presence has always been how his soul has connected to mine. i mean, i'm prepared that that is an explanation for how i feel. but at the same time, hope is the only thing that we have. and the minute we give that up we have to fall into a grieving

cycle, and we can't do that until we have evidence. i think that a lot of the authorities think we're just being irrational. but we're not, we're protecting our health and we want answers and we have to keep pressure on the government agencies to find those answers. >> and i know that is why you are continuing to speak out. and sarah, i do appreciate you being on tonight. i wish you the best. >> thank you very much, anderson. up next, oscar pistorius grilled for a second day by the prosecutor known as "the bulldog" sticking to his story. >> i didn't intend to shoot. i was pointed at the door because that is where i believed that somebody was. when i heard a noise -- i didn't have time to think and i fired my weapon. it was an accident. >> also ahead, a near miss that kept the secret service busy when a protester threw this at hillary clinton in the middle of a speech. our thing: protecting you in ways your credit card company alone can't.

you got up, you had an argument, that is why she ran away screaming. >> finally, through objection, managed to force the state to give their version of events. oscar pistorius and reeva steencamp had a violent argument and she ran screaming into the bathroom. >> amid the argument that he mistakenly shot her because he thought she was an intruder. pistorius says that some of the messages were untrue. >> she exaggerated on some of the things she said. >> the olympian questioned about why reeva steencamp wrote, i'm scared of you sometimes and how you snap at me. >> i think she is scared about feelings, how she felt about me. >> she is not scared about the argument, she is scared about what she does. >> the prosecution skipping between events and charges in the questioning. it was obviously his strategy. he was getting pistorius' mind

to jump between all the charges before he essentially went for the kill on the murder charges. >> testimony that once again captivated the courtroom. reeva steencamp's mother says she looks at him to see how he is behaving. i am obsessed with how he acts, i can't explain it. >> her mother says he must feel my eyes boring into him. oscar pistorius throughout the whole of today's cross examination never once made eye contact with the state prosecutor. and of course he will be back here again on friday. robyn curnow, cnn, pretoria. also up next, somebody throwing a shoe at hillary clinton. and coming up co: sometimes you don't know you need a hotel room
