we had that incident back in march with that suicide bomber, turned out to be a fake, in cyprus.us a little history and how it plays into today and what are experts considering when they look at this horrifying picture? >> it is evident that most experts following events in egypt may say there were no whether conditions, no distress signal or calls saying something is wrong with the plane. most likely the experts will say egypt is at war with terrorism so let's look at possible scenarios of terror attacks. they are very multiple, you have the possibility of a bomb and a whole world of investigations, the air force and terrorism. and the possibility is very low flying at a very high altitude. egypt airlines, targeted by isis and others, the general thinking, clear information telling more or less what could happen. nicole: we will be right back with more. these little guys? they represent blood cells. and if you have afib - an irregular heartbeat that may put you at five times greater risk of stroke - they can pool together in the heart, forming a clot that can break free, and tra

you may remember the most recent one when a flight headed to cairo was supposed to land in cyprus by a man who claimed to be wearing a suicide belt. the suicide belt was a fake and said the man only wanted to meet his ex-wife whochz living on the island. a sudanese passenger pulled out a knife and demanded the plane be diverted to jerusalem to liberate it. they over powered the man before landing. the deadliest hijacking of an egyptair flight was in 1985 when three terrorists shot and killed a security guard and two flight attendants before taking over the plane and forced it to land on a mediterranean island. the event turned into a massacre when egyptian troops stormed the plane even throwing hand grenades that led to 60 deaths including the hijackers and many of the passengers. we should stress as we have through out the morning that we have not heard from authorities that hijacking or terrorism played any role in today's crash. >> garrett tenney joining us live. thank you very much. additional information? >> returned retired air force pilot lieutenant general john mc inernie. yo
