suffered a rare twin engine failure 575 miles south of okinawa. near the end of a routine run out to the carrier ronald reagan. the fact that eight aboard survived suggests the pilot was able to make a controlled landing in the water. the plane was near the end of its flight to the carrier, so the helicopters were on the scene a half hour after it went down. the search for the three missing continued into the night. the plane is called a c-2 greyhound but is widely known as a c.o.d., which stands for carrier onboard delivery. they've used it to deliver people and parts to aircraft carriers at sea. last week ben tracy of cbs news was a passenger on a similar flight out to the reagan and all passengers were required to wear life vests. it frequently shows up.

the c.o.d. has a good safety record. the last mishap was five years ago and there were no fatalities. but the navy's seventh fleet which operates in the western pacific has an atrocious safety record so far this year. collisions involving the destroyers of the fitzgerald and mccain caused the death of sailors and in this case it was their fault. the high operations in the pacific has led to reduced safety margins. there's a new clue in the search for an argentine submarine. an unusual noise was heard before it disappeared last week. the argentine navy did not say if the noise indicated an explosion or other emergency. the search for the "san juan" is entering a critical phase because oxygen may be running
