7:05 am
the french are militarily active in this area and nearly half of the passengers were french. so, a column of 30 vehicles and soldiers immediately dispatched to secure the site. french soldiers report finding the aircraft disintegrated and concentrated in a small area. so far, one of the black boxes has been recovered. the md-83 was in the air for less than an hour and the french transport ministry says that while terrorism cannot be ruled out, the crash was likely due to bad weather. it was just before 1:00 a.m. for a red-eye flight with 118 on board that the plane took off from burkina faso, less than 50 minutes into the flight, the crew asked to be rerouted because of strong storms. at 1:47, french officials say, contact was lost. the french president expressed grief for those lost and said french aviation investigators have been dispatched. in just two days, two passenger planes in bad weather have gone down. it was a taiwan plane that crashed during a typhoon on wednesday killing 48. so, is your plane safe? we've seen jets tested for lightning strikes in a boeing lab and they're designed to
7:06 am
survive storms but pilots are supposed to fly around bad weather. >> weather in and of itself shouldn't have been a problem in either of these accidents, so it's likely to be a combination of the weather and the pilots not being able to react to the weather. >> reporter: there are no americans listed on the passenger list. five canadians were on board. as we mentioned, french investigators who are very good, should be on the scene soon and, david, those black boxes will tell us a lot about the pilots' actions and the weather, those very severe storms the other day. >> all right, david kerley, thanks. we know those jets built to withstand weather but ginger was telling us, you looked at the radar, what they flew through was impossible. >> we have the satellite images, from that time, the inter-tropical convergence zone, itcz and air lifts and you get storms. northern side they move from northeast to southwest so the plane takes off, goes into or close to the storm.
7:07 am

7:09 am
dr. silverman brought a gun to work which is against hospital policy. but police say plotts may have done more harm had dr. silverman not intervened. this morning, plotts remains in critical condition and as for dr. silverman, authorities say it is legal in this state for him to have a gun and he will not be, robin, the subject of a criminal investigation in this matter. >> all right there, ron, thank you. we'll go to amy with the morning's other top stories. good morning, amy. >> good morning, everyone. and we begin with a new plan to deal with the immigration crisis and the thousands of children pouring into the u.s. illegally. president obama is considering a pilot program that would screen central american children before they leave home and then give them refugee status. as for the migrant children already here, the president wants to speed up their deportation. he is meeting today with the leaders of guatemala, honduras and el salvador where gang violence forced thousands to flee. the other big story this morning, street protests
