authorities also confirmed on friday that the signal detected thursday by huge royal australian air force orionaircraft was not from the black boxes of the missing plane. earlier we spoke to our course on an adhesive which are in perth that he said so far there's still no major breakthrough in the search operation. he also talked about some of the main obstacles facing search teams the fact that the prime minister of a throw ask em on and said this optimistic mood here to there house. they're quite confident that this signals come from the black box is actually a very positive sign from the series that's been going on. up to five weeks now and this is the closest have ever been. those four things that they've effective from the ocean shield. this has been their best league so far they have confirmed that it has the same frequency boxes the difficulties that they have is that this ocean scene of the deep oceans are are very noisy with a lot of fun animal noises and a lot of a man made. oceanography of krugman's being put in there and that's what they thought they heard another thing on thursday

now, this latest ping incident was picked up by a sailor boy, dropped by australian air force orion. sailors operating below 1,000 feet below the surface. information picked up fed back up to the plane. very much a waiting game, i'm afraid, greta. >> hotels in malaysia and beijing waiting. >> i didn't quite hear the question there yeah, it is very much a waiting game. and there is a huge amount resting or relying on this latest information. and certainly the man in charge of the search is saying he is sill very hop mystic and hopes to find the final resting place of this missing plane in the next few days. >> roger, thank you. and thank you for being with us. right now go to gretawire.com and answer this. with hhs s. secretary kathleen sebelius thrown under the bus or not? vote in our poll. up next o'reilly factor. good night from washington. >>> tonight on "red eye." >> coming up on "red eye," the scorching conclusion of the war to become greg gutfeld's new assistant. some say it was the most exciting competition captured on film, but did he break the rules by declaring co champion?

the acoustic event that happened, you say the ping was picked up after a royal australian air force orion dropped some sonar buoys and they picked up that. and that data will be analyzed overnight. so we're anticipating with the search later on today, potentially, there will be some feedback and some refeignment of the area for the search. and more importantly, for the recovery. >> your planes obviously going airborne at this hour, going out again. where are you searching right now? >> so we're already airborne. we're over the first off the group today. we're searching in the area which is removed from the subsurface search. the area where the pings are going on that the ships are looking in will be different from the area that the majority of aircraft are looking for. the aircraft are mainly looking for debris on the surface. other than the australian orion, which is specially equipped, dropping those specific s sonobuoys. >> obvious, there are pings. you haven't seen any debris. >> it's a very, very, very challenging search. it's a very large area. day 35 of the search. a lot of time ha

an australian air force p-3 orion.y're trying something new now as they try to get as many pings as possible before the batteries in those black boxes run out. so the plane flew out over the search area and dropped a bunch of sono buoys, it means sonar buoy. thee they're equipped with lisping devices and they listen for possible sounds. we know one of those buoys detected a sound. just within the last 20 minutes, we confirmed new information about it. the sound is not 37.5 kilohertz which is the standard signal for this particular type of device that was on 370. but we're told that it is in a range that makes investigators strongly believe that this is a manmade signal. so we know the data is actually being analyzed right now. the analysis will continue overnight. and if they have something to report, if they can confirm that they think this is also from a black box, we could learn that as early as tomorrow morning. perth time it would be late in the evening on the east coast where you are, john. >> so just to be clear

that is the shadow of a royal new zealand air force p-3 orion, flying over the search zone in the southernndian ocean. and looking up at it, you can imagine it's looking down through those very same pea soup conditions. low cloud cover has caused problems for the air search over the last two days. the search on the water, sad to report, hasn't been a whole lot better. in fact, cnn's will ripley hung on for dear life, might be the best way to describe it, so he could show you from the water the extremely rough seas and what those searchers are dealing with in the southern indian ocean. >> reporter: we have moved about 12 miles off shore here in the indian ocean to give a sense of what the weather conditions can be like. and believe it or not, this is considered a clear day. we have swells, we have waves. you have to hold on to something on the boat just to stay standing. captain ray ruby, i can't believe this is a clear day. >> yeah, you saw last night was like glass, this is just a normal day. i feel sorry for the guys on the shield heading out to the wreck zone, because we're at idle and

air force. >> so what is your responsibility, air commodore right now, what is new zealand doing? >> we have a p-3 orionsearch since the 15th of march. it's day 35 of the search today. we'll be going out again today. we're airborne in about an hour and we'll be going to the task area that we have to search. every day our crews are out there doing a search. it's roughly the size off the width of virginia. there's a total of nine going out today. so they will be very focused on the mission at hand and putting in another long, hard day to try and find some debris on the surface. >> just to be precise, so far, as far as you know, and you know what is going on, air commodore, you have not found any, not even a tiny piece of debris from that malaysian airliner. is that right? >> we've found lots of debris but at this stage, none of the debris that we have found has been able to be linked to the missing malaysian aircraft, unfortunately. we'll continue that search today. the crews are motivated. the equipment is world class and we're very, very focused. >> is there an explanation that you have and your experts

orion crews who say they've never seen anything like this. a plane seemingly to completely disappear. it is take-off number four no for this royal new zealand air forceng. they want to be the team that finds something, anything, from the missing plane. flying at speeds up to 470 miles per hour, they told me this mission is all about resilience. they are in the air about 11 hours each day. four of them scouring the designated search area. we've been about the search area about two hours. we have seen objects on the water but the crew has nothing significant. soon one item is spotted and a touch of optimism on board. the plane makes a few dives to get as close as possible. we see what looks like an other orange piece of fabric floating on the ocean. but crews' hope wanes as they look at what seems to be a fishing net. yesterday the trade association that represents all international airlines vowed no airplane will ever go missing again, by making sure they be tracked in real time. >> we cannot let another aircraft simply disappear. >> reporter: that will mean redesigning aircraft to make it more difficult to switch off the various tracking devices. loo
