s" at 9:00 p.m. eastern. you can follow us on twitter. be sure to join us right here in "the situation room" tomorrow. if you can't see us live dvr the show so you won't miss a moment. erin burnett "out front" starts right now. tonight, breaking news. u.s. intelligence shows it's likely that someone in the cockpit of missing flight mh370 steers the plane off course before it disappeared. more debris washes up off the coast of africa. is it also from 370? the man leading the search for the missing plane. donald trump, still surging in the polls and taking time off, headed to scotland for a golf trip. let's go "out front."
4:01 pm
i'm kate baldwin in for erin burnett. breaking news cnn has learned that u.s. intelligence believes flight 370's final moments were deliberately caused by someone in the cockpit. this breaking development puts renewed focus on these two men, the captain and the co-pilot of the plane. investigators did extensive psychological profiles of the captain and co-pilot seen here going through security. this is before boarding the doomed flight. no evidence of any psychological, drug or alcohol problems were ever discovered. all of these late developments coming as sources close to the investigation are increasingly confident that the debris discovered off the coast of after ri africa is a boeing 777. evan perez broke this today. a huge development tonight. what more are you hearing? >> reporter: an assessment by a u.s. intelligence agency says
4:02 pm
someone in the cockpit deliberately dreth deliberately directed the aircraft's movements. it was based on satellite and other evidence. analysts looked at the course changes that the aircraft made after it deviated from its scheduled course from kuala lumpur to beijing. analysts determined that it is most likely someone in the cockpit deliberately moved the aircraft crossing the indonesian territory and eventually towards the south indian ocean. this is an assessment done for internal u.s. government purposes. it's separate from the investigation being led by malaysian authorities, which the fbi and the ntsb have been assist assisting. >> you say specifically someone in the cockpit. does the intelligence specifically point to the captain or the co-pilot or are officials leaving open the possibility that a crew member or somebody else on the plane could have done it? >> the u.s. assessment doesn't go that far. the only evidence they have are
4:03 pm
the movement of the aircraft. they believe someone had to deliberately pilot the aircraft toward the south indian ocean. i should mention that a report done in march, the anniversary of the crash, said that there's no proof of wrongdoing by the airplane's crew. we have a portion of this says "there were no behavioral signs of social isolation, change in habits or interests, self-neglect drug or alcohol abuse of the captain, first officer and the "the hope is that finding the debris brings them closer to finding answers. >> but still it seems so far away at this moment. thank you so much. big news coming this evening. tonight, sources are telling cnn that boeing investigators confident the debris found on reunion island does in fact come from a 777 aircraft. we know there are -- have been no other 777 aircraft that have crashed or are missing,
4:04 pm
especially in this part of the world. officials have now added this to their investigation. it appears to be remnants of a suitcase suitcase. it washed up yesterday on the same island. how certain are investigators right now? >> reporter: you get a sense, kate that they are privately growing in confidence. publically nobody wants to be responsible for giving the families any false hope given how much they have suffered. the focal point is on this latest debris that washed up this morning here on reunion. it gives credence to this theory that's getting traction that there are currents that have been moving -- that would have been strong enough to pull this debris across that some 2,300 kilometers between what was thought to be the crash site and now this new focal point.
4:05 pm
owe fishes are officials are looking at the shorelines. helicopters patrolling up and down the beach, hoping to catch sight of any more debris that would build a broader picture of how much has been moving and how strong the currents are. the hope is now that this investigation and this evidence can be moved as quickly as possible officials tell us to the south of france. the balancing act is how much will they gain from coming here versus how quickly they can get the investigation going by getting all of this new material over there. there isn't a sense that the clock is ticking. but they are trying to finally provide answers to these families. >> all of these little critical pieces to such a big puzzle they're still trying to ing toing to piece together. >> richard quest is here and
4:06 pm
miles o'brien. richard, a lot of news coming in late today. what do you make of this? a u.s. preliminary intelligence assessment someone in the cockpit deliberately steered this plane off course. >> i just hope they didn't spend too long and waste too much time doing it. frankly, from day one, the facts have always been known and have pointed toward that general direction. the malaysian prime minister himself, when he announced the turn back said it was by a deliberate act. there's nothing startling here that for somebody like myself who happens to think you have to have the mechanical issues still on the table, there's nothing startling here that makes me change my mind one bit. >> this is carefully worded david. it is one step from saying that someone in the cockpit also then crashed the plane. but is it time to go there, do
4:07 pm
you think? >> yeah. you know the deliberate movement -- i'm going to say a word we haven't said over a year now. nefarious. i think richard introduced that to us. the nefarious activity. this doesn't indicate there's anything nefarious or conclude that in my mind. as richard said it doesn't rule out anything and especially doesn't rule out any kind of mechanical failure. >> miles, it sounds like from these two guys we're back still at square zero, if you will. you have examined this disappearance extensively. malaysia they found no red flags between the pilots. obviously, this puts them squarely back in the spotlight. >> well let's not forget about the big achilles heel on this aircraft. the open door to the bay the electronics and equipment bay, which is a room you can walk in beside the first class galley which has the entire server farm which runs this aircraft. it was open on that plane.
4:08 pm
it's a huge breach of security on that particular type of aircraft. i don't think we can say for certain -- i believe it was a deliberate act. but i do not think you can rule out that there was somebody who stowed away in the compartment or commandeered the aircraft using that care built, that access. >> why do you think u.s. intelligence is pushing out this assessment now? >> i don't know. >> speculate. >> why are they leaking it now? why are they leaking some facts now? one can only imagine for their own political purposes. >> mechanical -- you still think mechanical? >> i think there's a mechanical option that cannot be ignored. miles disagreed with me on this point. others do as well. but i think that having -- let's take the pilot's suicide. i don't think it was pilot suicide. >> how can you be certain about anything?
4:09 pm
>> if you look at the examples of pilot suicide, they don't go and fly the plane for seven hours afterwards. they turn -- they take control of the aircraft and they put the nose down straight into the water. >> miles? >> understanding the human mind is completely out of my realm. what could motivate a person to do that? i have no idea. here is what i would like to ask richard. here we are 15 16 months if there was a mechanical flaw that caused this why hasn't it happened again? >> miles, that's a question as well you are aware. >> why is it a ridiculous question? >> it would have -- >> wouldn't this pop up? >> i can throw that question straight back to you and -- >> get your hand out of my face. >> i can say, why haven't it happened before mh370? you can say it with all of them. >> i deny to you give me the scenario that would cause the catastrophic loss of
4:10 pm
communication and equipment and in short order followed by this strange flight path for several hours. it doesn't add up. >> you haven't read a book that i know richard has. >> i was just about to say, david soucie plug your book. >> "why planes crash" go. >> the book is mh370, why it disappeared and why it will happen again. it will happen again. how much time do you want to give this miles, before it happens again? we have been 17 months. how much time is there between major airline can a cattastrophes? i don't think so nor does my analysis think so. >> both of you -- i submit to you, i have not heard your plausible explanation for how a mechanical failure would lead to what we see there. >> pause. >> it's an extensive analysis and it's there. >> pause for one second. david, answer me this.
4:11 pm
with all of these theories -- we have seen them all. we have discussed them all. we're discussing them here. is there anything we're going to see wash up in the ocean, like we have seen this piece of debris that's going to get us these answers or does it all still come back to needing that flight data recorder? >> yes, there's a very important piece and that's the ray dome of the aircraft the front of the aircraft, which is also honey comb similar in texture and size and thickness to this piece that did float up there. if the aircraft crashed in the way that we think it did, that front of the aircraft would have come off. if there were a failure -- a mechanical failure in the e and e compartment, there will be evidence of a burned debris floating in the ocean right now that just needs to be found. i believe that it will be found. it's circling out there and eventually it will be found. >> we're seeing some of the pieces we think with some degree of confidence that some of those things are starting to wash up.
4:12 pm
richard, david, miles, thank you. we will talk about the debris found thousands of miles from where the main search area was. were investigators looking in the wrong place the whole time? the man leading the hunt for mh370. who are the captain and co-pilot? what investigators think what happened in the cockpit just before it disappeared from radar. donald trump doubling his lead over jeb bush. why is he spending the day on a scottish golf course instead of on the campaign trail? when a moment spontaneously turns romantic why pause to take a pill? and why stop what you're doing to find a bathroom? cialis for daily use, is the only daily tablet approved to treat erectile dysfunction

4:16 pm
breaking news on malaysia airlines flight 370. a preliminary u.s. intelligence assessment suggests it's likely that someone inside the cockpit deliberately caused the plane to go off course. we will have more on that breaking news coming up. right now, the only potential link to that plane is the debris discovered off the coast of africa. sources tell cnn that boeing investigators confident it is from a 777 like mh370, and it appears to be part of the wing called a flaperon. nick is "out front" with rare access to a plane just like mh370. he is joined by michael kenny, a
4:17 pm
boeing 777 expert. show us where this piece of debris came from on this plane. >> reporter: we are joined by the senior vice president of universal asset management. we're interested in the flaperon flaperon. where is it on the plane? what exactly does it do? >> if you look over here you can see the flaperon between the two bigger pieces. >> reporter: it's about 6 1/2 foot -- >> the smaller piece right there. the flaperon is a combination. it's controlling roll and flaps extending controlling lift. >> reporter: how important is is it to an airplane? we can look at this. how important is it? >> very important. it affects it at the most critical phases of flight. >> reporter: this is a flopaperon from a 777. >> this is from a 777.
4:18 pm
this is the data plate. every part would have a data plate identifying part number and serial number that tells you this is this type of component. >> reporter: as we see in the debris that washed up on reunion island there's nothing here. what are investigators having to go off now to tie this mac to mh370. >> investigators using footage like this and tieing it to drawings components schematics. in this case the part itself to see is it the same component that we think we have found over there? >> reporter: you have been following this since last year. there's a lot of interest in your field about this. you noticed something about the damage to this flaperon that you found particularly specific about what happened. >> absolutely. this component has two major attach points to the aircraft. if you look at those photos again, you can see that the it has been removed in a pretty
4:19 pm
powerful way. >> reporter: there's significant force that pulled that off. >> not only up there but in the back section of the component as well. normally it has this smooth edge. if you look at the picture, the component they found, that was forcibly removed as well. >> reporter: is is it odd to you that the area that it was found or that this specific item off the plane was found? this has to be buoyant. >> it's made of mostly composite material. previously this would have been a metal or aluminum. it's now composite. it's hollow. it's got a lot of ribbing structure with compartments. it would float or wouldn't sink all the way to the bottom. >> reporter: thank you so much for taking the time. no doubt in his mind that the debris found there just off the coast of madagascar is from a boeing 777. it will give investigators something to work with. >> thank you very much for the great look. now we will bring in tom
4:20 pm
foreman. you have been taking a closer look at this as well. since one piece of debris was found, do investigators now -- are they expecting more to start washing up in this area? >> reporter: they have reason to consider -- think about what an airplane is made of. it is tough. it is durable. it is lightweight, which means there are parts of the plane that can float. the wings and the tail all have components in them that are made of that composite material. they are lightweight, even if they are torn apart, the parts may float for a long time. you can have things down in the baggage hold that may come out and float. there are other components as well. if you move into the cabin of a plane, you have many things that can float. you heard the talk about floatable seat cushions. there are things that passengers bring on board. they may have bottled water. they may have toilet try kits things that could have air sealed into a plastic container or a bag. that could pop to the surface and float for a long time.
4:21 pm
as disagreeable as your panel was being, i'm sure they will agree, every single piece you can get from this missing plane will help solve the mystery of what happened or at least it might. >> exactly right. great look at that. thanks so much. with us now, the man who has been leading the search for mh370 for more than a year now, the head of the australian transport safety bureau. thank you for your time. i want to get your take. i know you lead the search. a question on the breaking news tonight of this preliminary assessment coming from u.s. intelligence that suggesting it's likely someone in the cockpit deliberately steered the aircraft off course before it disappeared. what do you make of it? >> as you point out, kate the investigation itself is a matter for the malaysian authorities and our focus is on the search for the missing aircraft. in determining our search area,
4:22 pm
we lied on satellite data. we had regard to the range of scenarios about what might have led to the observed behaveior of the aircraft. we affected that into our search. comments on those sorts of speculative reports are for the malaysian authorities who are leading the investigation. >> i'm sure they are getting those questions tonight. you said that you hope to know in the next 24 or 48 hours whether this piece of debris that we have been looking at is in fact from mh370. are you closer to confirming this is from mh370? >> we have been getting closer. at this stage, we are highly confident. but there still needs confirmation that it is it a part from a 777 aircraft. the only 777 aircraft that we're aware of in the indian ocean that could have led to this floating is mh370.
4:23 pm
we still need to confirm that through closer study of what appears to be a flaperon or identification of part numbers and so on. >> is it more of just getting your hands on it getting eyes on it directly? is that not something that can be established through purely photographs at this point? >> we are certainly working with our french and malaysian colleagues off the photographs. obviously, working closely with our colleagues in boeing. we want to be certain on this. we want to do this thoroughly rather than saying possibilities and so on. so that will take some little time. then there will be further work of analyzing this component to see what we can understand about what might have happened to the aircraft at the end of its flight. >> if this is a piece of mh370, is something -- what you find on that piece of debris will that
4:24 pm
impact or adjust the search that you guys have laid out so far? >> not at this stage. obviously, we will review our assumptions about the search. our search area has always been defined primarily by the satellite data and our analysis of that data. we have done drift modelling of where debris would have come from our search area. it's possible that debris could have floated to reunion around this time. so it's certainly consistent with our current search area. drift modelling is a pretty uncertain science. so we don't think we will get much more precision out of the location for this particular component in terms of our search area. we are confident the data gives us enough information.
4:25 pm
>> you are highly confident that this debris is possibly from mh370? definitely a piece from a 777. needing the further confirmation. that will come in a couple days. thanks so much. next there is renewed interest tonight on the men at the controls of mh370. our special report on that plane's captain and co-pilot. the university of cincinnati police officer charged with shooting and killing an unarmed black motorist, tonight that officer says new video proves he is not guilty. >> dragging me. >> i saw that. >> i was going to get run over.
4:26 pm
big day? ah, the usual. moved some new cars. hauled a bunch of steel. kept the supermarket shelves stocked. made sure everyone got their latest gadgets. what's up for the next shift? ah, nothing much. just keeping the lights on. (laugh) nice. doing the big things that move an economy. see you tomorrow, mac. see you tomorrow, sam. just another day at norfolk southern. what's the most awarded car company of the year? ranking from top to bottom. luxury cars just seem like they would be top awarded. yeah. there better be some awards behind what you are paying for right? the final answer. chevrolet is the most awarded car company of the year. really? i was just surprised. i'm interested to learn more about chevy. let's check out these 2015 chevy's. it's like a luxury car. i was shocked. i mean, this is chevy? when i started at the shelter, i noticed benny right away.
4:27 pm
i just had to adopt him. he's older so he needs my help all day. when my back pain flared up we both felt it i took tylenol at first but i had to take 6 pills to get through the day. then my friend said "try aleve". just two pills, all day. and now, i'm back for my best bud! aleve. all day strong and try aleve pm now with an easy open cap. sfx: phone alert look at us... a nation of checkers. missing this moment... to check all of the other moments. really, mom? just one look. they'll never notice. checkers, you can keep failing at trying to sneak a peek. or, you can change the way you check your phone.

4:29 pm
continuing to follow breaking news tonight. cnn learning a u.s. intelligence assessment shows it's likely that mh370 was deliberately steered off course. it suggests it's likely someone in the cockpit caused the aircraft's movement before the 777 airliner disappeared. it's of course renewing focus on the captain and co-pilot of
4:30 pm
mh370. kyung lah is "out front" with more. >> zaharie shah and the co-pitlot co-pilot, the two men in charge. the last transmission spoken by captain zaharie, age 53 a veteran. logging 18,000 hours of flying experience. father of three passionate about aviation. so much so that he built a flight sum ooh lateimulator in his home. he wanted to share what he knew posting aviation tutorial videos on his own youtube channel. >> call the technician. >> reporter: after the plane's disappearance, questions swirled around his marital status. they found no indications that cast suspicion him or his co-pilot. this is the co-pilot. he was in the cockpit as cnn
4:31 pm
recorded a feature story on the airline shoretly before mh370 disappeared. he joined the airline in 2007. much less experience this picture cast doubt on his conduct in the cockpit. two south african women say he invited them into the cockpit during a 2011 flight a breach of safety rules. as the search stretched into months a former faa investigator kept returning to this question why the shutdown of tracking devices aboard the plane? >> is that a coincidence? >> reporter: he spent 25 years with the faa and the tsa investigating crimes against civil aviation. he agrees with the initial u.s. assessment that there was a deliberate act from mh370's cockpit. in fact because mh370's disappearance feels so familiar.
4:32 pm
anthony investigated the crash of egypt air flight 990, many concluded it was kaudzed edcaused by pilot suicide. silk air, american authorities determined it was krashd because of actions taken by the pilot. what is your theory regarding mh370? >> in view of the context of all the evidence of everything that is on the ground and what's been found, it looks like that the most likely theory would be intentional interference by the pilot. i think that this investigation can only be solved on the ground. it may have clues at the bottom of the ocean. it may have clues on the beaches of reunion island. but i think the answers -- the final answers of why this happened can only be determined on the ground. >> when he talks about on the ground he's talking about investigators in malaysia looking into the background of the pilot and the co-pilot.
4:33 pm
he says there may be more answers there, kate about the how and why, even more than if they find the black boxes. >> reopen that look right into their backgrounds as they concluded it once. thank you so much. joining us now is the president of a union representing flight attendants for all airlines in malaysia. for 25 years he was a flight attendant for malaysia airlines. thank you for your time. big news out tonight, the u.s. intelligence assessment suggesting that it was someone in the cockpit that deliberately steered the plane off course before it disappeared. what's your reaction to that news tonight? >> we took it as what we have seen before. basically, i think we still are waiting for more evidence on what's been discovered yesterday. the families are told exactly how it is. previously there's news about the discovery of the airplane
4:34 pm
parts. so we are not very certain about what's coming. we are hoping for more evidence to appear. >> with this assessment coming out from the u.s. intelligence community that it had to be someone in the cockpit that deliberately steered this plane off course before it disappeared, you know the captain. you worked with him. do you think he's capable of doing something like this deliberately? >> i still believe that our pilots or perhaps captain zaharie himself wouldn't have come to the extent of doing something like that. this is what we have known of captain zaharie. the people that have worked with him, me personally have worked with him. we have doubt that there are things like this that could appear to be more evidence in showing that the pilot have done something wrong. we do not know exactly how far
4:35 pm
this would be unless there's some real good theory to show us real strong evidence to point out that the pilots really did something to the plane. >> looks like still pieces of very large puzzle. thank you very much for your time. i want to get back to miles o'brien. i want to get your take on what he said right there. with this intelligence assessment you get a lot of disbelief from the families and from him. he knew the captain. they don't believe it that the captain could be capable of something like this. >> you know it's important i think that we all separate two things here. that it was a deliberate act and who might have done it. there's all kinds of possibilities here including the fact -- he is aware of this -- that at the time of the incident, the electronics and equipments bay which is a hatch near the first class gallery, was wide open. anybody who had a modicum about
4:36 pm
that aircraft could have seized control by gaining access to it or stowing away in that compartment. that's one notion of how this aircraft could have been taken off course. >> how vulnerable -- you talk about that hatch. how vulnerable is that hatch? >> it's wide open. it's a very simple thing to open. >> with it -- explain again how much you can control of the plane from getting -- from gaining access there. >> you have the keys to the kingdom there. you can control the plane completely. the plane is a flying computer. that's the server farm. that's the central -- that's the brain of the airplane, all communication, all the computers. everything funnels into that room. the door to that room was open. i think when we say deliberate act, we should be careful about pointing the finger at any individual. >> malaysia looked in the backgrounds and the manifest of the crew and passengers.
4:37 pm
nothing specifically turned up. you wonder if it's time to go back through once again. miles, thank you. >> maybe so. next republican candidates are cramming for next week's debate. donald trump is in scotland for golf. is that his debate prep strategy? a white police officer pleads not guilty in the shooting death of an unarmed black man. he says new video supports his side of the story. are you moving forward fast enough? everywhere you look, it strategy is now business strategy. and a partnership with hp can help you accelerate down a path created by people, technology and ideas. to move your company from what it is now... to what it needs to become. unbelievable! toenail fungus? seriously?

donald trump surging in the polls, leading the pack of republican presidential contenders now has a double digit lead over jeb bush. today, he is not on the campaign trail. he is not cramming for next week's first gop debate. he is in scotland on a golf course of course. dana bash is "out front." >> reporter: virtually nothing about donald trump's presidential campaign is conventional. i thought interviewing him at a winery he owns a few week ss ago was surreal, but this may have
4:42 pm
topped that. one week before the presidential debate the gop frontrunner landed his helicopter at his golf course in scotland. this is not your father's primary season. >> an amazing day and a half. >> reporter: he is in europe for the weapon's british open taking place at his golf course. >> i have a big stake in this. >> reporter: his newest investment in his own campaign is paying dividends. another new national poll shows him with a significant lead in the republican presidential race. 20% with wisconsin governor scott walker trailing at 13% and jeb bush at just 10%, half of trump's support. one gop candidate called the reason for trump's rise simple, out sized ed a edd attention. >> if i had a billion dollars worth of advertising and every network going gaga over that i think we could get ours to rise
4:43 pm
also. this is a temporary sort of loss of sanity. >> reporter: it isn't all good news for trump. he also has the worst favorability raising of any candidate. the billionaire tops the list of candidates gop voters say they would never vote for. >> withe're diplomatic and everybody hates us. >> reporter: trump is making we'ves on some s waves about immigration and what to do with immigrants in the u.s. >> i would get people out and i would have an expedited way of getting them into the country so they can be legal. >> reporter: hold on. when you say get people out, are you talking about a mass deportation? >> we don't even know who these people are. >> reporter: how do you find them? >> we have to find them. >> reporter: how do you do that? >> we have to find them. politicians aren't going to find them because they have no clue. we will find them. we will get them out. >> reporter: when you say still
4:44 pm
get them out, the process of that -- there are a lot of the smart people who have been focused on this say it's not feasible. >> if you know how to manage. politicians don't know how to manage. >> reporter: and on abortion. trump was for abortion rights and now he is against them with exceptions for rape insist and the life of mother. would you make sure that that exception or those exceptions would be in the republican party platform? >> i think it would be something i would discuss very seriously with the people in the republican party. >> reporter: there are a lot of people in the gop who would fight very hard against the idea of adding those exceptions to the platform. that immigration, healthcare they're all many topics that trump and other candidates nine of them will be asked to expand on when they stand on the stage one week from tonight at the first gop presidential debate. kate? >> one of the few things you can be sure of. thank you so much. joining me now to discuss russell moore, with the southern baptist convention one of the most influential religious
4:45 pm
