fox urgent. a twist in the mystery of the missing jetliner at this hour. i'm harris faulkner. we have learned one of the plane's communications systems was turned off before the pilot's final transmission to air traffic control. investigators say it makes it even clearer this was not an accident. new details in the search for the missing malaysian airlines flight 370 seem to support the announcement from the country's prime minister whatever happened to boeing 777 was deliberate. the pilot's last words indicating nothing was wrong, and only minutes later, the plane's transponder deactivated. satellite data show that plane continued flying for seven hours

in one of two directions. you see the arc in red. it either went northwest into asia, although along that path, it would have to go over pakistan, and the pakistani government said they never saw a trace of it on the radar, other the south, it could have been the indian ocean. at the center, the pilots. every detail of their lives being unurearthed. investigators reassembling a flight simulator found at the pilot's home. growing frustration at the pace in which some of the details and information are being released. boy, it's been dribs and grabs. 25 nations helping to find the plane, and there are claims that some countries may be holding back vital data. that would certainly explain why it's going slowly. dominic di natale is live for us in los angeles. what this about the secretive behavior about some of the countries? >> here's what's happening, malaysia is asking its neighbors

for satellite data, radar play back, and the findings of the aerial and ground searches that the neighbors are conducting, but the problem is there isn't a single country in the neighbor that wants to readily give up that kind of data. the reason is what that would do is reveal the surveillance activities of these nations on their neighbors. this all came about during a press briefing on sunday in malaysia, during which the malaysians revealed to be asking their neighbors to be putting officials on the ground in certain countries, starting with the indonesians. >> if the malaysian government wants to go in the territory, we're asking for a permit. >> we have not yet provided any information yet. but i think this is one of the things we have to cooperate in in the future. >> so you can see an example of reluctance there. that was the japanese ambassador

to malaysia talking there. so across the region, people very worried about this, because it would reveal the kind of technology they use, and if that technology was able to pick up exactly where this plane went, that would prove hugely embarrassing, and of course, the nations might not want to give out that kind of technology. it could delay the findings of where exactly flight 370 went. >> that's really interesting. reminds me of the nsa and that whole scandal and how maybe we didn't want the rest of the world to know how closely we were looking at them, either. thank you. >> let's learn more about this. jim wall, an international security expert at m.i.t. security studies joins us now. i want to get your reaction to the breaking news tonight, the fact that maybe they're not sharing. >> yeah, in some ways. i'm not surprised. i think dom has put his finger on it in so far as this is mi military related data. nations are relublthant to share their militaryidaty.

either they're watching and they don't want their adversesaries to know they're watching, or they're not watching and they don't want them to know there's gaps and wholes in the surve surveillan surveillance. in some of these countries, take pakistan, the military is its own entity, it calls the shots, and the government is not in a position to force them to turn it over when they're sort of in charge. other countries may have secrecy laws and there's a whole separate thing here where malaysia has never handled this sort of thing before. this is all first time for them. it's the first time for a lot of these countries. so there isn't a history, aren't protocols, isn't any practice. people are having to create this for the first time and governments tend to be slow movers. they don't tend to be nimble and quick in trying to share information like this. >> you know, i appreciate all that, but there doesn't have to be a protocol for humanity, does there? >> i hear what you're saying. this would be true for the united states as well, i would say. before we handed over a bunch of sensitive military data, we

would want to have rules and procedures in place and make sure we weren't sharing sources and methods. this is what every state is cautious about its military, and in some of those states, the militaries are more powerful than the civilian government, and in that region, you showed the arc of the curve up into asia. a lot of countries are enemies. india and pakistan are enemies. india and china are enemies. >> i want to steal from twitter, because our activity is very high after the political insiders have just left the room. so we still have people chiming in. they have some good questions, jim, so i'd like to throw this to you. what would be the sense or motivation for that flight to take the southern route? and you were just talking about what's in either direction. talk to me about that? >> a great, great question. and unfortunately, i have no good answer, although i will say my twitter handle is dr dr. jimwalsh mit. the reason i say that is that's a big expanse of water. you hear federal officials hibit

at the fact their most likely sunarrow is it went down into the water. to go south is no man's land. are they big enough to have air strips to handle a big plane like that? i think that twitter -- that tweet is absolutely correct and raises a fundmal question that is buzzelling investigators. >> here's another one in terms of what they may be looking at. this person has tweeted tonight, they should check all passengers last checks and e-mails from their phones to see if there's anything there. this brings up the fact we're all keys into all this high-tech technology. >> i'm sure the passenger list has been scrubbed and scrubbed by several countries including the u.s. my guess is not only are they checking e-mail accounts and phone accounts, they're probably looking at financial records, training, did any of the passengers receive air training in any sort of way. do they have any affiliations with criminal groups, with

terrorist groups. i'm sure over the past week, that's been one of the top priorities, and the crew and the pilots have received the most scrutiny. >> that brings me to another thing i want to ask you about. that's whether not, as peter king of new york has suggested and others have, that we really should be in the lead on this. how confident are you that they're doing all the things you just mentioned? >> i think clearly as you watch this unfold over this first week, malaysia had misstepped. it rejected the data from the company saying that they had been receiving signals far after the transponder signal went down. malaysia denied that was true and it was important, obviously, they have changed their story on that. again, malaysia is a developing country. it really doesn't have experience with this sort of thing, and frankly, no one has experience with this particular scenario that we're seeing unfolding. we have had other planes disappear for other reasons, but this is close to being unique and when you deal with something the first time, it's very, very

difficult. of course, the problem is getting harder, not easier each day. normally, you have a narrowing each day. >> why is it getting harder? >> because the search area is expanding. before, it was small. now it's gigantic pieces, you know, something that is really the size of the united states in terms of the space that they're searching in. as that area gets bigger, it becomes much more challenging. >> international security experts really investigator, they're focused now on the pilots. what would you focus on? >> i would focus on the pilots and the crew. you know, you really are left with little else other than that, but it has to be pointed out that one of the facts that came out today is the two pilots did not request to fly together. >> true. >> so that raises a question, well, if they were somehow in cohoots with one another, wouldn't they have arranged to be on the flight in advance by design? that wasn't the case. so i wish i could tell you there was a strong theory, strong

evidence, bultd we don't have it. >> u.s. intelligence, how much do you think we're able to gather at this point as we're talking about 25 nations, and kind of diplomacy it would take to compare notes? >> i think relative to the other countries involved, relative to india, malaysia, or vietnam, we have a lot more data. w why? because we're constantly scanning the earth. we collect phone calls. we collect intelligence and have a tremendous amount of information processing capacity that other states don't have. while we may know more than others do, it doesn't mean we know enough to answer the questions. >> all right, quickly, before i let you know, what is the revolution that this system was deactivated before we heard the last words to the control tower of all right, good night? >> yes, so that seems to push in the direction that the pilot, a pilot or both pilots were aware

of somehow part of what happened. is it a smoking gun? no, you can imagine a situation in which a pilot has a gun to his head. or where it's one of the crew members. so there are still some other possibilities here. but in so far as that communication system shuts off first, then the pilot says good night. then the transponder is shut off. one would think that all things being equal, that the pilot would have had some sense that that was happening. when that first initial communication system was shut down. again, it's suggestive but it's not a smoking gun. >> i appreciate you couching it the way you have tonight, and separating the facts from the suggestions. jim walsh, thank you very much. i'll tweet you so we can connect. >> thank you. >> appreciate it. well, we should be just a few hours off from learning the final ruts because it's already monday in ukraine. president obama in contact with

the russian president vladimir putin over the crisis in ukraine as crimea decides whether to secede and join russia. two leaders, we think now, talked by the phone after the people of crimea cast their ballot today on that issue. there are early vote counts, but we're still awaiting the official results. local officials on the ground say more than half the balgts have been counted and it appears people in the region have voted to secede. they would rather be with the russians. which is now leaning more to a western type dement aocracy. the white house has rejected the vote and did so before the polls closed. president putin telling obama the referendum was legitimate, and he's concern about violence against speakers in ukraine. joining us again this hour, greg. what has happened in the last little bit? this is a fluid situation because it's monday over there? >> exactly, harris. we are in fact less than seven hours from that official

announcement of the final result of the referendum in crimea, but frankly, we're not expecting too much to change. the last thing we have heard from election officials is 75% of the votes were counted, and they claim 95% of those voted chose for crimea to secede from ukraine to unite with russia. that was a turnout over 80%. russian officials are saying that union could be a done deal. again, this had been predicted. the majority of the population in crimea is ethnic russian. more key, a massive moscow-backed propaganda campaign in elections manyoverers here branded as illegal. the u.s. and others calling them illegal. perhaps most important factor, however, is a huge incursion of russian troops into crimea. this week, that number topped 22,000 as well as some troops venturing outside of crimea into ukraine proper, and more russian troop movement near the border with eastern ukraine and in the

area of eastern ukraine. we're seeing more violence. pro-russia attacks on government facilities. ukraine is moving troops into that area, calling up militia. they're saying the loss of crimea will not stand. u.s. and european union, however, saying that they will in fact move towards sanctions, maybe as early as monday. they're saying it won't stand, but they're not saying there will be any u.s. military boots on the ground as long as russian boots are on the ground, not too mch could change. >> greg, thank you. president obama not the only one reacting to russia playing hard ball over crimea. peter deucy with the latest from washington. peter? >> harris, the russian government says they don't see any reason to budge and change course in ukraine just because the international community is upset. here in washington, the obama administration isn't budging either. >> this referendum is in violation of international law. the united states is not going to recognize the results of the referendum and we're working with our partners around the world, the europeans in

particular, to marshal forces against the russians to put pressure on them in the form of sanctions. >> meanwhile, republican senator john mccain who recently visited ukraine says russian president putin should no longer be held in the same regard he was even just a few months ago. >> treat him for what he is. that does not readmission of the cold war, but it does mean treating him in the way that we understand an individual who believes in restoring the old russian empire. >> without going into specifics, democrats and republicans on the hill lined up on the same side this morning, in favor of sending russia a strong message. >> ultimately, the sanctions need to be enforced along with our european allies. >> our nation along with europe, the u.k. signed this also. we need to protect ukraine. >> russia risks losing their spot in the g-8 if they don't respond more positively to western diplomats. that's just another possible outcome to keep an eye on in the days and weeks ahead. harris.

bob is joining us. i'm wondering, general, the reaction. it may be inside the pentagon,my be in the military. we're spend aglot of assets on this. >> yeah, harris this is something of a mess. no one has better sensing capability than the united states. you mention the p-8, the united states ability to employ its sensors above the service, on the surface, and below the surface is unpresidented. in addition, to united states has an amazing ability to collate the data and parse it and be able to track down leads. the problem, as you suggest, is that the management of this, and the cooperation in the region is just atrocious. the people who i talked to, particularly in the military, are really getting frustrated. they want to be able to talk to other partners in the region, to share data, to try to break into some of their military radar data so they can sort of connect the dots on this thing, and all

they've been able to do so far is just operate on the margins. it's very, very frustrating, as well as expensive, harris. >> i mean, it's heart breaking for the loved ones and families wait, but we lead the world in this, don't we? our navy is on displace for the world to see. gueye can do things others cannot. >> two problems. number one is the american sensing capabilities in asia generally are focused farther north, on noorth korea and some extent, in china. the depth of coverage in this region has only been cobbled together over the last four or five days. secondly, while we get along great with many of the countries, many of the countries are another ruled by the military or they have enormous control over what information is shared. remember, the culture is important, too, harris. i mean, these are mostly authoritarian states. they're very reluctant to embarrass themselves. the first priority is protect

major general bob scales is going to come back with us now. fox news military analyst. general, i want to go to something that's being mentioned here. you know, in the navy, maybe you have buddies in other navies around the world. i don't know how it works, but michael callaway said nobody is mentioning australia. that southern route is off their coast. they would know exactly what's in that area. quiet. why? >> great point. the australians have a very capable navy. their technology is first rate. and our relationship with the australians over the decades has been supurp. and this is their backyard, literally, the states of malacca are just nort of australia, and had answer to the question is, the aussies are working with us. and the aussies have been very forthcoming, and they have repositioned some of their naval assets in the region. so while they may be quiet so far, that doesn't mean they have been inactive, harris. >> paul novak says, we flew 747s

in russia allusions into and out of mogadishu. no air traffic control cape blth and a lot of long inland runways. >> that's a great point. i mean, remember, we like to think of the globe as something that's perfectly mapped and completely internetted with every inch of the ocean covered by radar tracking, but the truth is that's just not the case. airliners travel often times thousands of miles out of radar contact, and as you know, the indian ocean is a vast, vast, vast expanse of water. most of it unmapped, and most of it uncovered by radar. so this is truly a needle in a h haystack effort. >> i'm wonder ahow long we stick with this. that's a fair question considering the fact, as we mentioned, wild-goose chase is being labeled for this inever. >> my view is years. >> years? >> yeah, remember, what's important here. this is an american made

aircraft. and the 777 is ubiquitous among airlines of the world. in addition to that, we need to know a little bit more about airline operations in this region of the world.ll stick wi this for a very long, long time. probably won't be as robust as it is right now, but no one does, particularly deep sea searches, better than we do. if we don't participate, the job won't get done, harris. >> real quickly, susan says ask the major general if diego garcia island was one that would have picked up the pink that we have been talking about, the transponder information, if you will, from the plane. >> a short answer is no. it's too far away. and the radar facilities in diego garcia are mainly for controlling air traffic in and out of the island. the track of this airliner is far, far, far, too far to the east for diego garcia ever to play a part.

>> all right. major general bob scales, always good to have on hand to talk about these issues. i appreciate you taking some of our tweets on twitter as well. a lot of people with good questions and good thoughts about this as they follow our coverage. we appreciate your time, sir. thank you. >> thank you, harris. fox weather alert now. a winter storm coming that could shut down our nation's capital. boy, it's almost -- i want to say april, but that's not really true. matt's at the floor, looking at me like, come on. plenty of headaches this wanter, and now for the start of the work week, we're going to feel it again. janice dean joins us. i'm complaining, but it is in fact winter. >> yes, you know what they're calling the storm system? >> big? >> snow patrick's day. >> really? i'm not hash tagging that. >> i think it's brilliant. all the more reason to drink green beer, my friend. >> okay. that tells us a lot about you.

>> so on the serious side of it, they're decided whether or not to close schools in and around the d.c. area because they could get a wallop of snow within the next six hours. let's take a look at it. the warm side of the system bringing the heavy rain. but the snow, snow patrick's day hash tag, she says, all right, ohio river valley, that's where we're starting to see the snow starting to really accumulate on the grass and of course on the roadways. there's your forecast temperature in the radar. so there's new york city, 29, 30 in philadelphia. we could see several inches in philadelphia as well. bringing it to the second snowiest winter on record. 31 in d.c., and again, we're going to see a lot of snow in a very short period of time in and around our nation' capital. you know what happened when they have snow in our nation's capital, things start to shut down. pay close attention because the schools might be closed tomorrow morning. 25 degrees, and another shot of snow patrick's day snow for d.c. around 2:00 p.m., so harris,

we'll certainly keep you up to date. i like it. i think it's great. maybe we should dye the snow green. >> janice. time off, she needs a vacation. >> maybe. maybe. >> you're great. thank you. the investigation now of the missing malaysian jetliner focusing on the two pilots and crew. tonight, we have been telling you what they have seized from their homes. it's become very clear that whomever caused the plane's disappearance knew what they were doing, about timing, about the flight route. they knew a lot about the plane. and election officials on the ground in crimea, are reporting voters have decided to secede from their country of ukraine. thousands of russian troops are now occupying the region. with their own motive. how should the u.s. respond to this international crisis? why do people count on sunsweet prune juice to stay fit on the inside? it's made only from prunes, nothing else. it works, simple as that. it's a natural source of fiber and 5 essential vitamins.

it's the bottom of our second hour. here's the latest on missing malaysian airlines flight 370. we can confirm one of the missing jet's communications systems was turned off before the final words were made from the cockpit to air traffic control. remember, he said, all right, good night? this only adds to clues that whatever happened aboard malaysia airlines flight 370 happened on purpose. police are also intensifying the focus on the plane's pilots, seizing a sophisticated flight simulator which that pilot took lots of pictures of and posted them. they're reassembling the device and hoping to find any clues they can. grn reporter for radio terry freel joins me live from phone from kuala lumpur with more on this. terry. >> good evening. >> terry, you know, i'm curious because it's a point we haven't been able to gather outside the city. we saw the memorial people are making outside the airport, but how is the family holding up?

>> they're not holding up well, they're not told very much. they're angry at the government and an the airline for the lack of information. the problem is, of course, we don't really have very much information anyway. this is a deepening mystery. we get more questions every day than answers. >> i can only imagine the frustration. we were watching, we can put it back on the screen now. one of the pilots, you know, is particularly the one that they're looking at. he's the senior pilot. tell me what the latest is, if you can, in the investigation. >> as you said, they're looking at the flight simulator he built in his home. this is a very experienced pilot. he had 18,000 hours of flieming time. he's actually a friend of a couple contacts of mine, and they have total confidence he was very sound of mind. and they're quite puzzled by what happened. authorities are looking into the passengers as well, to see if there's anybody on the passenger manifest who may have flying experience. >> has anybody else said

anything about the stolen passports or other people on the flight? we really don't know, haven't learned much from the malaysian authorities. >> no, the malaysian therts have been very bad at disseminating information. in fact, the passport issue came out of interpol instead of malaysia. the two stolen passports, it appears, are just two iranians trying to get to europe for asylum. they've been ruled out. >> we appreciate your time tonight. terry joining us, terry freel, by phone from kuala lumpur. our first ability to talk with somebody tonight from inside the capital of malaysia as they have been preparing that airport to say, we love you, from the rest of the world. thank you very much. as we just told you, there's word one of the plane's communications systems was disabled before the pilot said good night to air traffic controllers. they described his voice as very calm, like nothing was wrong. joining me now is judith miller, a investigative reporter,

author, and fox news contributor. good to see you tonight. >> nice to see you, harris. >> diplomacy has come up more than once tonight with people whom i'm talking with on the show. i know you know that part of the world very well. what kind of relationships do we have with the countries who were at the heart of the investigation, particularly in malaysia? >> we have had very good relations with malaysia, and the counterterrorism area. and testy relations in trade and other areas. but i think the problem is that the united states doesn't want to be telling malaysia how it should handle this investigation because countries tend to dislike being told what to do, especially in the middle of crises like this. so the united states has to tread very delicately, and offer what help it can, but one of the major questions that journalists need to be asking again and again is, how good is the cooperation among all of these nations, because unless everybody cooperates now and we know that they're starting to,

we're not going to solve this riddle. >> are we in a position, is this white house in a position to coordinate that effort of bringing people together? can they do a kumbaya, if you will? >> i was going to say, after all of president obama's kumbaya talk, if he's not in a position to do something like this -- >> you would be shocked. >> i don't know where that talk has gotten us. no, i think that the problem now is really trying to get the basic facts, which we're still sorting out after all this time. this is such an enormous mystery, as a journalist, as somebody who is asking the questions that you are, how on earth in this day and age could a plane just disappear out of the skies with nobody surveillance mechanisms noticing. >> i know a lot of people with hardware in our industry, you're the pulitzer prize winner journalist, so i ask you this. you get on the ground in kuala lumpur, and who is going to talk to you, judith? what are the sources like over there? >> that's one of the other problems, as you pointed out, we have just had our first

interview tonight with someone on the ground. there's a lot of material in the malaysian papers, we don't know how to evaluate it. for example, a report about the captain that husband family had left him the day before the flight. we don't know whether or not that's true. we don't know that he was actually in the courtroom at anwar ibrahim, the opposition leader's trial, and he heard the five-year sentence. we believe it to be true because we're reading in their press. >> the fact that that pilot was at that muslim leader or islamic leader's trial, the week before, you know, it's interesting because i said the first report from kuala lumpur. it's not that we didn't have a opportunity, but we have to vet and there's no way to vet. >> we could put all kinds of rumors on the air, but there's a lot that all of us have broadcast that turned out to not be true. >> let's talk about crimea and what's happening in ukraine tonight, and speaking of being

able to establish good sources on the ground, they intimidate journalists over there. russian troops are thick on the streets tonight. >> they absolutely are. that might have had a little something to do with the vote in the crimea because the last time a vote was held on independence, the crimea voted 54% in favor of independence from russia back in 1991. now, we have a vote that is like, looking like an arab state vote of 95% in favor of joining russia. >> and that's a problem? >> well, of course, it's a problem. as our president reminded putin in their third conversation in two weeks, you know, this will not be tolerated or recognized by the international community. but what we haven't heard from our president is specifics about what we're going to do, but we're going to know that very, very soon. in this case, it doesn't depend on us. it depends on the germans and the u.k. and the europeans because we have 1% of trade. they have the largest trading

relationship with russia. >> here's my next question. what kind of friendships do we have in the european union where we can count on them to shore us up and tell the russians, back off, get the heck out of ukraine and let those people live? >> in this case, i don't think it should be a question of friendship. it should be a question of the europeans recognizing their own interests. if they don't understand that russia moving back into its former republic is a threat to them, there's something wrong with them and not a lot that we can do about it. >> i have sulitted a lot of response from twitter tonight. @ferrissfaulkner if you want to get in on the conversation. barbara writes, according to a friend of hers whose father translates for the cia, the crimeans do not want to go back to russian control. you mentioned that 95% of the vote. it's not final yet, but is there any capability or credence to maybe people who really don't want this. >> we know the charter community announced, at least their

leaders announced they were not going to participate in the election at all because there was no way to vote no against unification with russia. now, that's 12 to 15% of the population. and yet the russians say -- >> they can't vote no? >> no, there was no no on the ballot. >> only yes or you don't vote. >> the only answer, you will join later through unless. there was no option to say no. so really, what kind of vote is this? it's preposterous, and when the president said it wouldn't be recognized as legitimate, i think he's speaking in this instance, for everyone, the issue is what are we going to do about it? >> i would love to know the tone of that phone call between putin and obama. all right, we have to move on to north korea. you think it was testy. i bet this was testy. northc crekorea decided to fire some rockets today. they tend to do this when the world is focused on one thing. now we're focused on this missing plane. i don't have theories.

i only look for the facts. >> what are they? >> we don't know enough about why north korea is doing what it's doing. we don't know enough about this young leader except to know that he's erratic, that he's brutal, and that he's capable of surprising us again and again, as for example, these tests. and what they're about. we have been trying to device a way to deal with north korea and its leadership under many presidents now, since they have started to show the world that they're determined to be a nuclear power. no one has figged out a way to deal with them successfully. >> i want to talk about this idea of giving control to the rest of the world of our nrlt net, which we created, this domain system. when we come back, i'm seeing a lot on twitter about that. we're talking about a national security risk. that's what some of our guests on the program have told us. i want you lto look at some of the countries who want control. china leads the list.

♪ ♪ judith miller is back with us, a pulitzer prize investigative reporter, author, and fox news kribtder. she's going to talk about the idea of america not only paying for, but inventing the domain access system for the rest of the world, and the white house making the decision they would like to see the control given away to the rest of the world. on twitter, michael tweets, i am puzzled over the lack of

backbone from our leadership, first on the ukraine, and then why give up the internet? >> i'm totally with you on this one. i have no idea why obama would do this. especially because john brennan, you know, our security chief, our former intelligence director, has said absolutely, this is the area of greatest vulnerability for the united states. and we're going to give up the right to kind of control the domain names. it makes no sense to me at all. and another -- it points to another thing that the administration does again and again and again. it just makes these pronouncements and it announces these things without any backgrounding, without setting the stage, without explaining why it's doing this. there may be a good reason, but if there is, we haven't heard it. >> it's interesting when you look at the list of countries that have been talked about who would like to get in on the internet access game. china. they don't have a great history for getting in on any game and giving the right and access to

their own people. why in the world would you want to then have what we have now as freedom on the internet handed to that country? >> i can't begin to understand why you would want to do that. most of the world still does not play by our rules. we also have at the moment, as you know, harris, a huge fight between the providers and the government over the government's use of their domains, their services, to spy on other people. we have a lot of unsettled issues. this is not the time to start transferring ownership of the internet to others. >> yeah, and then there's the national security risk, as you talked about. and cybersecurity has been such a huge point. >> our biggest new vulnerability, and one in which we have already been hit in a small and inkaungs kwensal way. people like dick clark say we could really be brought to your knees by a sustained attack on the infrastructure, and that involved the internet. >> judith miller, thank you for being here on several topics

it's not the first time the world has been confronted with this. we take a look at some of those in the past. >> harris, at the airline disaster begins with the same question, how, why, where? history has caught us at some airline incidents never escaped the clouds of mystery. in 2009 air france flight 447 disappeared over the atlantic

the air bus 8330 vanished without a mayday call. early reports suggested terrorism. public data reporters investigators say mechanical malfunction combined with error. it crashed off the coast of massachusetts in 1999. the pilot and co pilot in the egyptian government but said the crash was due to mechanical failure. in 1996 twa flight 800 exploded in the air across the coast of long island, new york. it was caused by malfunction but there were plenty who believe the plane was shot down by a plane or missile. in 2005 flight 19 vanished off the coast of florida in the bermuda triangle. a cessna 310 disappeared in alaska presumably killing the u.s. leader and three others.

the bodies and the plane have never been found. in 2003 a boeing 747 was stolen from an goal law the plane took off made no communication with a patrol tower and had the tracking transponder turned off and hasn't been seen since. the disappearance of amelia earhart and her plane remains the most famous unsolved mystery of all. >> they're, brian. we have another one to add to the list. u.s. paralympic athletes have reached the pinnacle of success in sochi. one of our long time olympic rivals. stay with us. which will help me get to miami...and they'll be stuck at the cube farm. the citi thankyou preferred card. now earn two times the points on dining out with no annual fee. go to citi.com/thankyoucards.
