they can dive nearly 20,000 feet and stay there for a full day. teams use these subs to track down the wreckage of the missing air france flight off the coast of brazil in the atlantic ocean. let's take a look now. we have the president of the -- tburon subsea services. he brought with him this device here. similar to the one they'll use. this one is four or five feet long. >> this is a shallow water unit but all of them are out ton news underwater vehicles, drone for lack of a better word, are similar construction. >> the deeper you have to go the bigger the thing has to be. >> have to carry more power, more payload, and once you are down there you want to stay there. >> so until recently you told me they way they get down to very low depth to look for anything or take sonar pictureses with a

cable. but no more. >> yeah. they still dt$!9÷líei8pñ0( 3x"oy"- ii that. but it is -- a vehicle with sonar and you put it in a water and put addable down, 5,000 feet in shallow water. you would have to have 20,000 feet of steel cable. that's heavy. big ships and big reels. then its data is not as accurate because it's moving around unless you have another boat following it with telemetry gear. this is the future. >> how does this thing work? >> well, it goes down and it takes pictures of the bottom and in order to get to the bottom, get the real high resolution pictures you have toxr bottom, or send it on its own. this is the future. the beauty of these you can potentially launch multiple vehicles off one ship instead of one. >> you can't take standard traditional pictures. >> you can. they have camera payloads. you get a sonar fly-by, you can

zero in and then change paludoses and take photographs and map it out. all georeferenced so you know where they are. then you can send robs that are tethers from the surface with arms that can move salvage. >> going to that depth is something that humans only figure out how to do in recent years. i don't understand white it's not crushed. >> this system is similar to cameras -- like a go pro thing hat are sealed. at great departments they flood the motors with oil. a lot of the line all the systems they can possible -- even the batteries are oil filled. no air space. they can't crush. they have equipment housing that carries the computers and gear that has to be strengthened up for that depth. >> is this our best hope for figuring out writ is and what shape it's in. >> this is the most efficient,

yes. eave task,ary tool should be applied, i imagine, so if they have tow ships tow them. but if this happens 20 grimes now, the way this is going thesez ok, here's the way the system works. let's say you pay your guy around 2 percent to manage your money. that's not much, you think except it's 2 rcent every year. does that make a difference?

20 minutes past the hour. at least eight people are dead of a mudslide destroyed more than two dozen homes on saturday in washington state. emergency officials say they have a list of more than 100 reports of people miss organize unaccounted for. they were saying 108 people. this as teams work around the clock searching for survivors. some pictures we have here and they're incredible. this is -- shows a helicopter flying above some of the debris. authorities say the mudslide on saturday killed at least eight is a just said and here's some of what is left over. a wall full of mud and rocks powerful enough to force this house into a nearby stretch of highway. it is incredible devastation. you can see this man walking across the debris here, and just in his boots. nothing really left to salvage according to those. washington's governor has described the scene as a square mile of total devastation.

here's a picture. this is with those american flag coming out of the rubble of somebody's home. the mudslide blocked up a nearby river, as you'll be able to see and caused a lot of flooding as well. this is happening in a rural area about 55 miles north and east of seattle, and over here you can see the hill that blew away. this is it right here. this is a google map of the area. this hill right here just came right down. they say it was from a bunch of rain over time and it blocked this passageway here, this river, and that's what caused the flood. you can see what is left over here in the big wall. the whole thing -- the treeline, if you look closely, just as if everything fell away. looks like a cliff above an ocean somewhere that came crashing down on the homes. searchers say cries for help they heard coming from the debris over the weekend have now stopped. our dan springer works in the pacific northwest and is live in the nearby town of arlington. what's the latest on the search for survivors, dan?

>> they're not giving up. they're still classifying this as a search and rescue operation, although realistically we're more than 48 hours since the catastrophic landslide, and officials are not optimistic. the sheer amount of land that fell is absolutely staggering. it extends a mile long, a thousand wide in second it won't out an old fishing village of 35&&wnwé=ñ homes and 145 structures and buried a major state highway and for a time. completely blocked a large river. early on there were some dramatic rescues. a navy helicopter pulled a four-year-old boy out of waste-high mud. an 81-year-old man was saved along with a six-month-old child. they're still in the hospital in critical condition. it's now been well over 4 hours since the last cries for help were heard coming from the debris. >> the situation is very grim. we haven't -- still holding out hope we're going to be able to find people that may still be

alive, but keep in mind we have not found anybody alive on this pile since saturday. >> and shep so american heartbreaking stories. people looking for loved ones and fearing the worst. >> it's awful. aside from this slide area this flooding area is really -- what do we know from there? >> the risk continues. seven homes we know of right now that have flooded, and many more in jeopardy. the water is rising slowly behind the slide area. essentially we're creating a whole new lake here as the river has been stopped up. that river pushing on the landslide has unstable and was hampering search efforts on saturday. it's being described as quicksands but the lone bit of good news is the major threat of flooding downstream is diminishing. the river is flowing again. >> mother nature is doing a good job of recarving the river channel. we want to watch it, use the to all wes have the metric

continuing coverage of fox's top story. the mystery behind malaysia airlines flight 370. as the search for the wreckage of the missing jetliner continues we have no idea what the plane may have been doing there. one thing investigators are focusing on, the pilot.

the captain was a veteran in the cockpit with more than 18,000 hours of flying experience. but today malaysian authorities revealed new information about the plane's first officer. lea gabe gabrielle has experience herself. >> he had more than 2700 hours of flying time, li he didn't have muff experience in the 777. malaysian authorities said this was the copilot's sixth flight in the 777 and his first time without an instructor shadowing him. he had been flying with malaysia airlines since 2007 and just made the transition from other commercial planes. the copilot passed all the training requirements without any incident and didn't see any problem. >> somebody in that age in this country would never be in a 777. whats else do we know. >> the police chief said all

passengers have been cleared but the pilots pilots and crew are still being investigatees. malaysian authorities said the interviewed over 100 people including families of the pilot and copilot, as part of the investigation. was learned early on the pilot of the missing plane had a flights simulator in his home and last week investigators began looking at the computer and trying to recover files that had been deleted. malaysian authorities have not said what, if any data, has been retrieved. >> for more on the investigation surrounding the mystery of the missing plane let's turn to another expert. a former commercial airlines pilot and current fox news contributor, also has trained international flight crew. >> how is a person that young there. >> in the united states you wouldn't see that. 27 years old in a wide body 77. he had 2700 hours. by international standards that's normal because they pick their pilots young.

they don't choose pilots like we do in the united states based off experience. sometimes the positions are handed out because of who you know with the government. >> so is he a red flag for you first time in the cockpit without a train center. >> we want to see his training record. the thing is in terms of real-worth experience, he didn't have it. five or six trips with a training pilot. this was his first trip as a crew member without a check pilot in the left seat. so great training but no real world experience in a 777. >> i don't have a reason to be skeptical of malaysian airlines except for the last two weeks of my life which tells me i need to be skeptical of anything they say. how can you stand up and proclaim something is what it is without evidence? do they have it? >> what they have is the officials frommen mar sat who have gone on the record saying we're committing -- decades of experience but the first time they've been asked to do this.

they're saying we have experts on it and this air plane went down in the southern corridor. we don't know where it is. >> does its location suggest anything to you about motivation? can't figure out anything. >> i think at this point it would just be -- it's way off the table to suggest pilot suicide. we can take that off the table. no one is going to commit suicide and continue to fly the plaintiff for seven and a half hours. but it's still open to possible sabotage by terrorists, or i hate to say this could still implicate the crew but my belief is it's not the crew involved. it's probably a mechanical problem. >> because none of these, i did this for x reason, nobody can come up with an x reason. >> nose has claim anything, no terrorist groups claiming credit so there w!zr֍kz8/

in his mind and what would be his decision. that's why becoming even more explosive than it used to be a week ago. >> now crimea just about 1600 miles a. from where the president here is in the netherlands with these european leaders. that's why they're bracing for the possibility of vladimir putin trying to do another stunt

of some kind while the leaders are here in the region. >> ed, thank you very much. while he was speaking i got -- it's not funny -- yeah, it is. i got a cross from the reuters news agency, says red alert, g-7 leaders said russia must begin discussions with ukraine and respect the sovereignty. now it's obviously going to happen because the g-7 leaders said as much. putin must be quivering. fox news has confirmed that around the time of the g-7 meeting the neglectserlands air force sent pair of f-16 fight it jets to intercept a cargo plane. all these world leaders are there so they sent f16s out to check on a cargo plane flying in dutch air space that was closed for the summit. it was a plane that was a 777 owned by a chilean airline, a 777 that is some. officials confirmed the cargo

plane's pilot cooperated immediately. we're told this sort of thing is fair live routine. a passenger train crashed this morning at one of the nation's busiest airports. we'll see and hear from someone who was on board and get the latest on the investigation. >> now when the 9/11 museum is going to open. that's ahead from the fox news deck.

we asked people a question how much money do you think you'll need when you retire? then we gave each person a ribbon to show how many years

that amount might last. i was trying to, like, pull it a little further. [ woman ] got me to 70 years old. i'm going have to rethink this thing. it's hard to imagin how much we'll need for a retirement that could last 3years or mor so maybe we need to approach things dferently if we want to be ready for a longer retirement. ♪ ♪ >> officials say 30 people got hurt after a commuter train jumped the tracks and plowed across the platform at chicago's o'hare. investigators say they don't know how many people were on board the thing but that the noise -- to the noise was very loud and none of the injuries is life-threatening. passengers say they didn't know what was happening. >> i was on the shift of the sixth car of the train and i heard a boom, and when i got off

the train, the train was all the way up the escalator. >> the train thought it could ride the escalator, apparently. it was wrong. it did -- the train did scale that escalator and stopped 50 feet from the turnstyle. derrick is live. what are investigators saying? >> the national transportation safety board is now heading up the investigation, and some of the factors they're going be looking at include the train's operator, the train's signals along the track, and a host of other mechanical issues could have been at play here. o'hare international is the last stop on this line so trains typically slow down as the enter the station and come to a complete stop. witnesses say this train didn't decelerate at all as it pulled up to this stop, which is i would why it is halfway up the escalator. they have the area completely tarped off and not letting passengers go through the area

now. but the chicago transit authority say there are several backup systems in place that are supposed to stop the train in just this kind of situation. it's not yet clear, though, if those activated at all and if they did, why they didn't stop the train. >> what's the thinking on operator's fault? is that under consideration? >> well, that's always one of the first things they look at in cases like this. we do know that the driver is still being treated for some minor injuries but the ntsb says they plan on questioning her as soon as she is released from the hospital. we know that the driver -- she was in the last hour of an eight-hour shift of operating this train. so she had been working since 8:40 the night before. now, we are also waiting the results from a drug and alcohol test she took just after the incident, and that's part of standard protocol, and we're expecting those results later today or early tomorrow. >> we'll look for those. garrett, thanks a lot. >> we now know when the 9/11

museum will open to the public here in new york. they'll hold an opening ceremony may 15th. first opens for victims' family members and survivors and first responders. they can access the museum day or night until it opens the public a week later. then planners have already released pictures from the exhibit. the museum is located under the 9/11 memorial plaza at the world trade center site and will include artifacts from the attack and contributes to the 2,983 victims. >> coming up more, more on the missing malaysian airlines jetuçy%fv and experts could calculate where it crashed. it's very complicated and we'll have someone on who understands this to break it down for us. that's next.

>> update organizestore, a big development in the. the search for the malaysian jet. the prime minister says there's no doubt it crashed in the indian ocean and there's no hope for survivors. we still dope know what the plane was doing there in the first place. trace gallagher is live. how do they come up to this conclusion it crash? >> we know the meant sends out pings every hour that tells the satellites we're still here. it sent out seven pings meaning it was in the air for seven hours. the company who got the pings said the pings meant the plane took the northerly path or went south. now they used something called the doppler affect which says as sound gets closer, the far her away it gets, the softer, so why come back on camera here they took the seven pings and

measured exactly how strong the ping was, as the plane was first flying they said it was the same distance away. you see it's gets done here it gets closer to the satellite, a little further away down here and closer here and even closer still at the last ping at 11:00. meaning, they're saying there is no way mathematically using this doppler model that the plane could have flown to the north. must have flown to the south, and also charted other 777s that flew the same path and it matched almost identical. >> thank you very much. this is just coming in, and a statement from the survivors. a statement from those left behind by those who died on the malaysian airlines flying and it's quite something. we have just confirmed this is from them. and it says: 18 days have passed during which the malaysian government and military constantly tried to

delay, deceive the passengers, families, and cheat the whole world. this shameless behavior not only fooled and hurt the families of the 154 passengers but also misguided and delayed rescue actions, wasting a large quantities of human resources and materials and lost valuable time for the rescue efforts. if the 154 peaks did loose thunder lives malaysia airlines, the malaysian government, and the military are the real executioners who killed them. we the families of those on board submit our strongest protest against them. we will take every possible means to pursue the unforgivable crime and responsibility of all three. trace, this is scathing. if i had lost a loved one on there i'd be in a horrible place, too. this is strong words. >> yeah. one of the biggest criticism is what you mentioned earlier,

stating theywayed valuable time because nobody happened -- that plane could have glided into the water, could have plunged in. nobody knows exactly what happened. and if they didn't have any satellite data, which i they now admit they didn't from the northern countries and they believed this plane in fact did fly south, then why was it they didn't focus the search in the indian ocean or the southern part of malaysia prior to going to the north, and secondly, why would you send out erroneous information, which we know they did on at least three occasion, if you enough it was not accurate. >> this, thank you very much. much more reaction to the statements send out by the family members of those lost on the malaysian airlines flight 370 throughout the afternoon and evening here on fox news channel. called them the real executioners of their friends and family members. the malaysian government and malaysia airlines. this is an enormous political challenge in malaysia at the moment. there are concerns among the ruling there that they could be

in big trouble as a result of the way this thing has been handled. and many of you, who have been tweeting us over the last few days, seem to be in agreement with them. the way this has been handled has been beyond the pale, and simply -- well unforgivable. and we'll be right back. before larry instantly transferred money from his bank of america savings account to his merrill edge retirement account. before he opened his first hot chocolate stand calling winter an "underserved season". and before he quit his friend's leaf-raking business for "not offering a 401k." larry knew the importance of preparing for retirement. that's why when the time came he counted on merrill edge to streamline his investing and help him plan for the road ahead. that's the power of streamlined connections. that's merrill edge and bank of america.
