mario cuomo's son, andrew was sworn in for his second term as new york governor. mayor cuomo was 82 and our thoughts and prayers with our friend and colleague chris cuomo on his loss. thank you. "ac360" starts right now. good evening, jake tapper here in washington. i'm sitting in for anderson. it is early morning right now in the stormy dangerous waters off indonesia. a new day after an especially difficult 24 hours. despite heavy seas that cut short the search divers today, brought up 20 more bodies from air asia flight 850 is. u.s. sampson taking part in the operation recovered two of those victims bringing the total so far to 30. one identified a flight

attendant. her and others took off on sunday, of course. 132 men, women, and children remain unaccounted for. they at some point, will begin the same quiet journey we witnessed today. a military honor guard shouldering the caskets, loading them on aircraft that carried them out of the search zone and back to sarabuya. a process likely to be repeated again and again in the days ahead. david malko joins us. day five of the search has begun there. how's the weather, what's the latest? >> reporter: hi jake. very active search effort at this moment. the u.s. sampson recovered human remains out again with some 40

other ships, choppers, airplanes. this is a huge international effort. we get the feeling it's all hands on deck at this point russia coming in with two planes a couple dozen divers. south korea, indonesia, singapore, japan, malaysia and the u.s. all involved in this search. despite weather and challenging conditions we're hearing waves of 10 to 14 feet. searchers seem to be making some progress. we saw images of what looked like part of the window section or a window pane of the airbus 8320 come out on friday. that's a real first look at anything that looks like a an aircraft. the priority still to recover human remains. 30 bodies recovered so far. still a ways to go for search officials. also they're looking, they're starting to look underwater and listen underwater for the sound of the black boxes, hopefully to find those which will shed some light on what may have happened aboard the aircraft and also to

locate the rest of the wreckage if they're in the same place. jake? >> dave of the 30 bodies that have been recovered, four of them have been identified. one of them was a flight attendant named nisa and i i believe you spoke with her parents. what did they tell you about her daughter? >> reporter: that's right, jake. 22-year-old nisa known by her family. i had the chance to talk to her parents before she was identified in her hotel room. her 2 older brothers there with a couple cousins there. the thing that struck me is the way their faces lit up when they talked about her. we look at pictures on her instagram account and her mother and mother were saying ah, nesa what a wonderful daughter. she loved to fly. it was her dream to travel. even though she moved hundreds of miles away across the country, she was living her dream. jake i was with the family when they got the call to come down

here to the crisis center in the hospital to id their daughter. it was definitely a difficult afternoon for them. the remains were handed over a short time later. you know one thing that struck me about nisa's father her eldest brother also wants to be a flight attendant, follow in nisa's footsteps. even with what happened now, if he wanlts to do it i would still support it. >> thank you so much. as always stories like these each day brings a new batch of information that builds upon the last until we all hope the true picture of what happened comes into focus to help make sense of these latest developments. we're joined now by david soucie malaysia flight 370. why it disappeared and why it's a matter of time before it happens again. and miles brian and david who coled the search for flight

france 447. david galo let me start with you. jets and apparent piece of the fuselage have been found. does that definitely mean that searchers are closer to the location of the main crash site do you think? >> well certainly closer than having found nothing, for sure. at least there's tangible evidence of needle in a hay stack. i feel bad for the family another minute another day. a closer and smaller search area thanks to what they found so far. >> david soucie obviously, the severe weather conditions are hampering the search. high winds, monsoon season heavy rains and large waves. is this going to prevent them from finding the main body of the plane? how big a problem is this for the searchers? >> well it's a huge problem. did you see today, excuse me

one of the divers went out to try to get into the water and said he wasn't even able to get into the water. they want to resume the underwater search hoping they can keep that going while the waves are, that wasn't successful. it's hampering the search. in the meantime the debris is drifting. it's going to be incredibly difficult and we look at quite a bit of time here i believe. >> specifically david soucie tell me what exactly it is that hampers the search. i've gone diving when waves are very very difficult. i know that makes it physically impossible for somebody like me who's an experienced diver, although not an expert to even get underwater. what are the types of problems that they're encountering? well the underwater search. i'm not a diver, so i can't really tell you what's going on under the water, but what i can address is what's happening on top of the water with that debris.

the wind, the waves, anytime it's over the evidence rolls, it can damage it and all those are clues that we can use to try to determine what exactly happened on the aircraft should we not be able to find the black boxes, this might be the only answers we have as to what happened. >> miles, the evidence that has been recovered so far and obviously grateful anything was recovered given recent precedent, what does it tell you about what might have happened to this plane? >> well, you know it's difficult to say for certain, but because we're seeing pieces of the aircraft did it break up on impact or did it break up on the way down or was there a little bit of both? i think much of the evidence that we've seen so far is an aircraft that encountered a tremendous upset near a thunderstorm. did that lead to an aerodynamic stall and a spin down to the surface and that breaks up the craft or was it such a tremendous upset that pieces of it broke off?

in a sense, it's probably the answer is yes to both. so again, the flight data recorder and the voice recorder will shed an awful lot of light on this. >> david gallo, your experience with air france a lot of experts compare to this flight how does where what has been found so far in this flight for in particular flight how does it compare with air france? >> right. in air france it was about five days after the initial tragedy that debris was found, but, you know there was thousands of items found and the surface, 50 bodies. but from the plane bits we were able to tell a bit about what happened to the aircraft. we knew everything aft behind the wings was compressed upwards. everything forward of the wings was pretty much in tact so it looked like the plane, it was a tail strike of the plane and the medical examiner said most of the bodies the deaths were due

to vertical compression of the spine. we knew the plane has come down with a tremendous vertical force but we didn't know exactly what happened until the black boxes. it took waiting some months years, until we could recover those to get the full story. >> so just to refresh people's memory, air france that was in '96? >> 2009. >> oh i'm sorry. i was thinking about a different, i'm thinking about the twa flight. so in 2009, and 50 bodies were found initially and all found underwater? >> 50 at the surface and i believe 100 at the ocean death and 70 i think, still on the common tore. >> david soucie do you believe there's a chance the plane could have still been generally in tact when it hit the water? >> you know, it's still up for debate but i have some clues that i've spoken about that would indicate that to me. the dispute is whether or not it was a recoverable stall, there's

reports of it going 24,000 feet per minute in a descent and whether that's recoverable or not and whether there should have been a may day call a lot of unanswered questions. but from the debris pattern we're seeing here and from the way, specific parts are located, i'm thinking there was at the very least an attempted recovery almost a recovery and at that point, the aircraft did break in to pieces and was unsuccessful ditching. i do think there was an attempt to make this airplane a survivable accident. >> but miles, just based on the fact that there was not a may day call that leads many experts to believe thd to have been sudden and catastrophic. >> yeah i think it's very telling, this idea that they were somehow able to glide it down and ditch it like sully did in the hudson river a few years ago. i think is wrong. i mean if you just look at that scenario right after he took off

at very relatively low altitude he was able to offer a fairly compelling narrative on the radio as he went down to the river. you can imagine at 32,000 feet even if they were going down at 50,000 feet per minute it's a two minutes time. and if they're able to control the aircraft they're able to push the button on the side stick and issue a may day call. so now, that doesn't dispute what david said. i'm sure they were struggling to control the aircraft. there's no question. i think there's a good likelihood it was largely in tact when it hit the water, as was air france 447. so, you know it's kind of there might be a difference to that in some respects. >> no may day there in 447. they were completely occupied in trying to understand what was going on. >> david, miles, david, stay with us. i want to dig deeper into how much can be learned from the black boxes if they are recovered.

first though the technology that it takes to find the black boxes, miguel marquez has that story. >> reporter: the search for air asha 8501. a pings from the flight data recorder. a pinger has a specific pulse. it comes at a specific interval and frequency. >> correct. >> but still hard to find. >> yes, it is. >> reporter: forensic audio expert paul ginsburg shows what it would sound like with any competing sounds. but said there is plenty keeping for attention at the bottom of the sea. >> a school of fish swimming currents. echoes from the signal bouncing off different rock formations at the bottom. >> reporter: this signal he said is what an experienced

operator might initially hear. >> just as when you're listening to a radio station that's out of your range. >> reporter: he said because the pings come at regular intervals and known frequency, once have it, the experienced audio technician can clean it up to hear this. we asked ginsburg to show how it's done. >> a tone with an annoying tone playing. >> reporter: when he hears it back this is what he works with. >> in this case i will attempt to get rid of the tone. >> reporter: analyzes the tone and using his own software is able to zero in on it and remove the excess noise. >> in this case i will attempt to get rid of this tone. >> reporter: this job, easy and knew what it was and where it was coming from cutting through the many noises and distortions

board earlier this week. the cockpit searches for them and then even if the recorders are located, they might not provide as much information as you might think. more on that possibility from randi kaye. >> reporter: this is a sound of a pilot in trouble. >> swiss air. eleven heavy, we starting to land immediate. >> reporter: that was the pilot of pilot 111 talking minutes before crashing into the atlantic ocean in 1998. everyone was killed. when found the black boxes at the bottom of the ocean, they were stunned. >> both the recorders stopped recording about six minutes before the aircraft actually hit the water. >> reporter: leaving investigators to wonder why they suddenly lost control of the plane. it was a fire they later found in the jet's entertainment system which also caused the black boxes to fail.

but it took putting the plane back together all two million pieces of it to figure that out. bottom line the so-called black boxes aren't perfect. and they're not black either. they're usually orange. on an airplane they're tucked inside an insulated case and surrounded by stainless steel. they're built to withstand temperatures as high as 2,000 degrees fahrenheit and catastrophic impact. after twa flight 800 went down in july 1996 just 12 minutes after takeoff from new york's jfk airport, the plane's black boxes were recovered but they offered little. >> both the voice recorder and the data recorder terminated their operation within a nanosecond of each other. when the explosion took place. >> reporter: still, despite all the conspiracy theories, investigators say they figured out an explosion in the fuel tank caused the crash and shut down the recorders. >> indianapolis center did you

get a hold of 77 by chance? >> reporter: on 9/11 64 people died on board american flight 77 when it slammed into the pentagon. fire crews spent days trying to put out the flames. the two black boxes were found in the wreckage but the cockpit voice recorder was too charred to offer anything of value. >> it flew in with such force and the fire was so intense, that nothing could have survived that impact. >> reporter: indonesian officials say they hope to recover the black boxes of air flight 8501 within a week hoping this discovery gives them the crucial information they need to figure out exactly what happened. randi kaye cnn, new york. >> let's talk about this with our panel. david soucie and david gallo. we talked about the weather. obviously, that is a problem in and of itself but there are also other problems with the search going on including the

fact that this area is very well-trafficked and there are a lot of cargo ships in the waters. explain how that affects the search for the black boxes. >> one of the things we learned, especially from mh 370 is that when they thought they were listening to pings from the black box, they may have been hearing voice from their own shipper or maybe shark tagging. i took a quick glimpse of where the search is going on and counted dozens of cargo ships and tankers traversing through the area just commercial ships and that putting a lot of sound in the water making things more difficult, as does rough weather put sound in the water. so they really do need quiet as best as they can get it to be efficient at locating the black boxes. >> david soucie, obviously, the shallowness of the jabba sea certainly gave people confidence that the black boxes and the wreckage would be able to be found as opposed to with flight

370, malaysia air. but this is a 2,000 square mile search area. it's bad weather, rescuers are going getting a few hours of search time a day. there's only a few weeks of battery light left in the black boxes. how rhysic icrealistic is it that the black boxes will be found? >> the flight recorder boxes, the pingers didn't function but the boxes were retrieved visually. that's still a possibility. but to put the 100 feet of water depth into perspective, if the aircraft was tilted up on its side the width of the wing was about 100 and something feet. so it's really not as deep as you might think. i think this is a very discoverable aircraft. i think it is just matter of time for good surface weather, a matter of time due to the

weather. >> we were talking, david soucie, not just one day of good weather. they need a few good days of weather. >> exactly. that has to settle out there and have to have the quiet come in as dave was referring to earlier as well to hear it. it's really got to have some settling time in that itcz i'm not sure how long they have to wait for that. >> in randi kaye's piece a few minutes ago, there's a chance if the black boxes are found, it still might not tell us what happened to bring the plane down. >> yes, but i think, you know, once they're recovered, they're designed to withstand the impact and the airbus of this vintage is equipped with many many streams of captured telemetry of what every aspect of the machine was doing as well as what was going on in the cockpit with the voice recorders. so i'm fairly optimistic when they're found, we'll get some

answers, but it is extraordinary to me, you know why are we relying on these pingers after all these years with the technology we have? we know when air france 447, they went right over the wreckage. in the time frame when the pingers should have been working and they heard nothing. we think they failed as david soucie pointed out. obviously, the pinger is doing no good with mh 370 and in this case no black boxes yet. we have to figure out a way to get some of this information, some of this telemetry in the cloud when there is trouble on an aircraft. we shouldn't have to do this. >> and david gallo, once the fuselage is found, is that it? they can find the black boxes immediately? >> in the case of air france 447, i think we took 150,000 still images and took a bird's-eye image to direct recovery operations using an honest to goodness visual map. they may choose to do that or start recovering number one

thing of course is to contemporaryiness of the black box. a few things come into play if they find a major portion of the fuselage. >> let's be optimistic. david soucie assume they find the black boxes, assume they find them soon. what's the first piece of information you want to learn from the recorders? >> well the first thing you want to do is to line the cockpit voice recorder with the fdr data so that everything that paints the full picture, one without the other isn't nearly as helpful. that's the first thing you look for. the second thing you would look for is the cabin altitude versus the outside air altitude of the aircraft. that's something that would indicate whether or not there was a pressure breach in the cabin and see what the descent was and at what point there was a breach if there was a breach. so there's several pieces of information. it really is a whole picture, it takes all of these riddles and allows you to get some very

sequential type of information and then put it together and then that paints the whole picture. so there's not one specific thing. it's the combined information that really gives you the best picture. >> miles, when you talk about how the world is still relying on pingers, i hear you. and i'm with you on your preaching. what kind of technology should there be on planes so as to better determine the last known position? >> well the technology exists and it's been adopted by a few airlines and basically, the idea is to take the information which is being fed into the black box and when something goes wrong on the airplane it starts sending a signal either by satellite or to the ground to the operations center saying hey, there's trouble on this aircraft. you should start paying attention. this can happen automatically. it can happen at the command of the crew with the panic button or in a situation where an aircraft is non-responsive the

ground operations team can actually command this sort of telemetry to start feeding. everybody says well telemetry is too expensive and there's too much data. i don't think anybody is suggesting we need black box telemetry from every signal for every routine flight. it's when things go wrong, we have the capability. the technology is there and it's just a matter of money to do it and the airlines don't want to spend it. >> miles brian, david soucie david gallo, thank you. nearly a third of the flight belonged to the same christian faith. gary tuchman will speak to the congregation looking for answers. plus north korea hit with new sanctions after the sony hacking scandal. you don't know "aarp." because aarp is making finding the career you love no matter what your age, a real possibility. go to aarp.org/possibilities to check out life reimagined for tools, support, and connections. if you don't think "i've still got it" when you think aarp, then you

8501. of the 62 people on board, nearly a third share the same faith. 46 members of the same christian denomination. gary tuchman has more on that and he joins us now from surabaya indonesia. you've been talking to the families. how are they doing, how are they holding up? >> reporter: jake, it's very difficult because although the weather has been bad, these families are thinking and a lot saying to me the water is not that deep. why can't they recover my loved one's body? only a total of 30 bodies recovered, means there's 132 people missing. at the surabaya police headquarters the reason is we're next door to the hospital where bodies are being identified and so are the families. they're here. this is a tent that's been put

up for the families. this sign indonesia said keluarga it's a family waiting room. i want to give you a look inside. right now, it's not full and i'll tell you why. there's table and chairs to watch the news but the reason it's not filled up is that this room flooded the last couple of days. families went home they've now put carpeting down on a raised floor. the families are expected to come back in about a half hour. right across from there associate's degree news media center. it's a weird juxtaposition. but an unwritten agreement not to bother these families talk to these families. however, the church congregation let us into a service yesterday and this is an extraordinarily sad story. this is a predominantly muslim nation indonesia, yet on this plane were 46 members of the small protestant denomination in indonesia. 30% of the passengers on the plane and asking for comfort at the service, none gotten word about loved ones.

the day before we were invited to the home of the captain. captain irianto. many have no lost name. irianto has a daughter who turns 25 this week. a 7-year-old son. two elderly parents about and others allowed inside. we sat on the floor with them and the wife and the daughter describe their husband and father as a kind compassionate, wonderful man and father. they also had friends there who were also pilots for different airlines and said he also was a wonderful pilot. it's extraordinarily sad. people were seeking comfort being with each other but right now, this family pilot and the other families of the 162 people aboard this plane are suffering very much. jake back to you. >> gary tuchman, thank you so much. joining me now is mary skiavo representing victims and families from planes cars

accidents. what are the next few weeks and months looking like for these poor families? >> there's three things to deal with. first, the emotional side. it's an unbelievable shock. it's a grief and posttraumatic stress disorder for many of them last their whole lives. we throw around the world closure but to the families going through this there's no such thing. they don't like the word at all because while they never get closure, they learn to live with their new identity of a crash victim family. that's very hard on them. the other front, they have a lot to do. the investigators will be asking them for identification photos dna samples if necessary, dental records. they have to make decisions on logistics for the remains for the burial for the services et cetera. that part is very busy. and then after that subsides

and coming up around day 30 or 45 the airline care teams go away and be by the insurance lawyers, not the same loving support they've had from the carrier. unassociated effects to look through a book of identity tells to see if it belonged to their loved ones and at some point, plan a memorial and that's something they should do and take control of. >> what do you make of how the airline, air asia has been handling this from this distance it seems leaps and bounds better than malaysia airlines handled the disappearance of flight 370 last year year. >> absolutely. i worked crashes all over the world. many places no laws. in the u.s. there's laws what to do with the crash family. this airline seems to be doing that without the requirement of the law.

it's important to provide financial support, especially right now. i mean get these families through the funerals whatever they need for the memorials, the travel. they can worry about the balance sheet later and that's very important but they do seem to be doing those kinds of things for the families. >> while we're talking about the victims of mh 370 from last year what's the status on them? have they received any briefings from the government? >> no and it's really heartbreaking and a lot of them reached out to me. they relied on cnn for a lot of news and at some point, cnn was blacked out in china. it was censored. so the briefings from the government have stopped, of course the briefings from the airline have stopped. many received no compensation. they were told by the government what they were to do and at this point, they're just in limbo. it's very sad. >> very sad. mary schiavo, thank you. here bad weather blamed for a new england pile-up on an interstate. where it's expected potentially

glad that we didn't know because what we're left with is this beautiful, rich gift of watching, you know it's so inspirational to watch him and i love spending two hours with him on the screen. >> also it's so interesting and talk about this in the film a little his willingness to be so open about his illness was in such stark contrast to gene zilkul who had no idea about gene's illness. >> no and roger, the word i use, roger was devastated when he learned that gene was dying and that we didn't know and thought gene was going away to recuperate and he said i never want that to happen if something like that happens to me you must tell our family and close friends. i have to say the other thing though i understand. you know gene and his wife

marlene, each decision like that is so individual and personal that i understand that for whatever reason at the time they thought they couldn't tell us but oh it did hurt. >> the relationship between gene and roger ebert, again, you see it in the film. there's disdain. i remember watching on tv and -- >> you thought it was made up. >> this is a made up play. but there was real dislike there. >> in the beginning, they said about the first 6 years, five or 6 years, they didn't really talk that much and i know they didn't socialize with each other. and roger said they essentially had to go to the same elevator the same screening room and stand there and look at the numbers and they wouldn't talk discuss the time of day. >> for five or six years. >> the weather or traffic for a long time.

later, of course they were together almost 24 years and later, they came to love each other. >> obviously, what comes across in the movie is his love of film and the importance of film in his life and sort of the transformational nature of it. >> you know, the one thing that i came to figure out later is that roger, sometimes he'd say, it's only a movie. well it wasn't only a movie. roger saw so many things and he was a very literate smart man and in movies he saw some of everything. he saw things of literature he saw shakespearean tragedies played out on the screen he saw comedies about life he saw things about people in other countries, he saw so much. he saw film as a microcosm of life itself. >> thank you for sharing with us. >> thank you. thank you for talking to me. >> tune in this sunday when cnn films represents life itself at 9:00 p.m. eastern.
