the plane was supposed to fly north west from of the by jones capital about to, to the city of growth need in chechnya, in southern russia instead it via hundreds of miles, of course, across the caspian sea. before crossing on wednesday, near the city of october in catholic stone, initially, all sorts he said, a book strike may have closed the crash, but an increasing number of international officials and aviation next book. now say they believe the plane was shot down by russian ga, across defense messiahs, or they say footage of the fuselage scene during the rescue efforts and images that have circulated on social media. so p assigns of shrapnel damage. it's also known that the carrier of southern rusted, the plane diverted from is repeatedly used at defense systems against ukrainian

drain strikes as their resources familiar with the investigation, say the plains communications could have been power lies by electronic wolf systems on the approach into gross me the criminal has distance itself from the reports spokesman dmitri past calls to people to await the outcome of the investigation. remarkably almost tough of those on board survived some even emerging from the wreckage, unaided, many others west severely injured. so that way, when the blame crushed my wife was sitting next to me. i haven't seen husbands, the crashes. i don't know that she is. the plains blackbox has been recovered intact, and that's hope it will shed more light on what really happened of

more on this. we can now talk to steven writes in dublin, he's had a ation in transport at the technological university of dublin spring with his steve of the black box recorders from the down plain. they've now been recovered. how quickly can we expect the flight data in carpet recordings to be accessed and evaluated? good morning, terry, of the black day to record as far as the day of the all and the digital, like the digital copy course record is. they'll be plugged in to a tech to their computer, and that can be downloaded really, really fast. i'd be surprised if they're anywhere in the local region. so one of the places that they could be sent to might be the be in paris. so that's the actually the investigation types of parents or possibly even directs them investigation, branch and fond brought in the united kingdom. these are independent organizations . that typically what you might send something,

something like this. and when like we the public get to hear what's all or is that data recorders that voice recorder so the information um is likely to be made. public costa is normally about a month. so that will be a initial findings from the accident investigation branch. so because x will have their own x then time, which will then be supported by a number of other actors, including the manufacturer, possibly. ah, so we'll have to wait and say, but they will have some really, really quickly. so let me ask you, steven, straight out, what do you make of the allegations that the plane was struck by anti aircraft missiles as well? the, the interesting thing for me is, yesterday with we've been sitting on this waiting carefully. so obviously we were

told initially it was a strike that was the immediate inflammation that we were given a now the catholic all star taste of states. and this is being published by royces yesterday. and the it was a, it was a missile strike. and that would also tally with the images that we had from the aircraft implants and also the bicycle stabilizer stating that we could say, and then your video that you can see all those time a little box that's from what appears to be strapped. no. so you have, i, my cell is not designed to hit the aircraft to expired, and then fos, moving back to project. so a project house quite took me straight the cross, and it's the damages caused by this foss, moving metallic substances that within cops, things like hydraulic lines, electronic wise communications and such like so from what you've seen of the

images that would be consistent with the theory that the plane was indeed struck by some sort of miss. oh yeah, it certainly looks that way. and when we compare it to outside strikes like mit 17, which was the malaysian, that line shot down arbor, you cry, and quite some time i got that, but appears to be i have a significant similarities. ok, now that there are reports that the planes electronics were jammed. is that something that commonly happens to commercial aircraft, steven? and do you know whether it happened with this one? it is difficult for me. i decide this time now. but what does appear apparent is when i look at the data that's come through the idea space. so this is a communications are effectively like an ad traffic control digital system. but both of pay to have got itself confused with the costs and rush spice because the

locations were in china. and that's relatively straightforward because it's from gps data, which is a really weak signal. and you can do, i mean, you can buy a drama on amazon locally and it effectively wipes out the signal on the plains. don't flight fly gps themselves. so i use 19 fifties technology, which was the way you fly towards. so from that that you can, which is totally different to gps. so as far as i know, i'd be surprised if that system is jammed. it's always possible to jump and electronic system. but as we know, it's a commercial as failed. and why would you want to job commercial aircraft coming into an apple doesn't quite make sense. stevens, thank you very much for your insight, sir. that was a vision expert, steven right in dublin to sketch up on a few other stories, making head lice, day to sailors have lost their lives in separate incidents during the annual sydney
