responsibility. is it too early to rule that out? >> well, there is good evidence that points to a mechanical problem, but we still need to consider terror. >> if it is a mechanical catastrophe, how surprising is this for one of the most popular jet liners out there? >> it's very surprising. it's a popular airliner, very reliable. and even the mechanical theory doesn't exactly fit. you shouldn't have a fire in the nose of the airplane that brings it down. >> so many questions still. steve, thank you. and president obama has arrived in vietnam for an historic visit. he's the third president to visit vietnam. topping the agenda, shared concerns over china and security. and now to the air strike
