as we have experienced in numerous public actions and airfield, hancock this program operates beyondh of courts and law. and what we're trying to do is to get courts to engage the criminality in which the united states government is engaged through the drone program. >> how unusual is hancock and how central is it to the drone program? well, in large part, the drone program is operated in secrecy. we do know that the hancock drone base, the one 74th attack wing, focuses its missions on afghanistan. their weaponize drones. they carry 500 pound bombs and hellfire missiles. it is a difficult to get specific information about which attacks are launched were directed from which drone base. there are about a dozen throughout the united states that we know about. and we're just trying to bring this to light. we are trying to have this brought to the scrutiny of the courts. now i'm going to court this afternoon about seven hours from now. i was convicted of five separate charges percent a walking peacefully to the front outside gate of the drone base. >> what were those -- five -- what were

paula hancocks for us in indonesia. thank you. >> what was the weather when the plane lost contact with the ground? we have cnn meteorologist pedram javaheri who takes a look at the weather search and rescue and the weather the teams are up against. >> the weather across the java sea finally innmproving. there are storms in the area at the last known point with the aircraft. to the north, partly cloudy. to the south, similar story. when you talk about an area in the wet season december is the wettest time of year. you know storms are blossoming in the next couple days. tuesday into wednesday, storms develop again toward the last point known of contact region. that is where we think more strong storms and gusty winds and reduced visibility is something to be worth noting in the next couple of days. good news is when you take a look at the surface temperatures at java sea, 82 degrees favorite. survival in the waters is a possibility, but the longer time passes the more unlikely scenario that becomes. back to you. >> pedra

cnn's paula hancocks is joining us from indonesia. latest. >> reporter: the search is winding down. we have not seen helicopters or planes come in here from the search and rescue operation in the past couple of hours. we can see the end of the second day, the search operation at least is winding down. the ships can stay on the water. they can put spotlights on. it is very difficult to see anything in pitch darkness. i spoke to the first marshal in charge of the search and rescue operation on belitung island. this is the closest area where the plane lost contact with the air traffic controllers. it is still 240 nautical miles by 240 nautical miles. he said they don't have the data to be able to hone in on a particular location. as soon as they have that they will do it. i also asked him does he think there is a possibility of survivors. he said if the plane landed or crashed into the water, it is highly unlikely. he told me this several hours ago. he said it is possible if it managed to crash on land. there are jungles to the east of h

paula hancocks there on the spot for us.e'll check in with you later, paula, thanks. >> they're set up to get as many aircraft out, as soon as possible. the one thing that i'm interested to know and we'll see if we can get paula back is how long they're able to stay out there. we know time is of the essence. >> it is. and even though it's nowhere near the search area of mh370, it's still a lot of area to cover and having seen that search up close personally. it's so difficult, you're scanning just endless, endless ocean, to see any little speck of something. it's very hard on the eyes. requires a lot of concentration. as you reported in our coverage of mh 370, people in the aircraft are in for long hours of just staring and there's so much floating on the surface of the sea that you never think about. >> including white caps which brings us to weather. we know it could have played a role in this incident perhaps. we're joined by pedram for that. tell us about what this plane was facing on the flight and also what the searche

let's go to cnn's paula hancock. she's monitoring the situation. what's the latest you can share with our viewers? >> i can sum up what we know so far. it is fairly sketchy at this point. still waiting for the transport minister to see exactly what he has said and hope he has given us more details. what we do know is that 7:24 a.m. an airs s asia flight lost contact with air control. we know the flight path should have been less than two hours in indonesia to singapore but we do know that it was supposed to land in singapore 8:20 a.m. that's about five hours ago now. of course as time goes on, concerns are increasing for what exactly has happened to that plane. we understand from the news agency, they believe 155 people were onboard. it's not clear whether it's just passengers or crew as well. so it could be as many as 162 people onboard. we have got a statement from the air line itself saying it was an air bus 320, 200. they have no further information at this point regarding the status of passengers and crew members onboard so of course they are

. >> let's go to cnn's paula hancocks. she has arrived in indonesia where many search efforts are under way. what can you tell us about the it search there and whether they are searching in the water and on any possible land. there are some people that believe that this plane could have landed somehow or gone down on one of the many many islands there in that region paula. >> reporter: i spoke to the first marshal in charge of the search and rescue operation here on the islands, and this has really become a staging area for many of these helicopters coming in. and he basically said i asked him if there could be survivors from this plane incident. and he said at this point, he believes if it landed in the water it is very unlikely that anyone survived. but he said it is still a possibility that the plane may have crashed on land. it may have crashed on an island to the east of here. and so certainly, he said they are not ruling anything out at this point. they still have a very wide search area 240 or 240 nautical miles. it

let's go now to paula hancocks. she joins us from indonesia where some of the searches are being launched from. and what are you being told about how it's going to be conducted? >> caller: well just in the last half hour we've seen one of the indonesian helicopters take off. this airport here is really where some of the military and search and rescue helicopters are coming to refuel. so it's becoming a staging area. this island north of the capital, jakarta. and it's the island that is believed to be the closest to where the airline lost contact with the officials. so it's believed to be close to where this airline could be at this point. now obviously, the pilots on board are desperately trying to find any sign of this plane. one of them did tell me that they simply didn't really know if they were looking in the right place. in the moment they're heading north-northwest of here towards singapore which is where this aircraft was heading to when it went missing. the most important thing is at this point, is to get as

tried to stop the film, has issued a statement denouncing the release of the interview" and paula hancocks joins us now live from seoul, south korea with more about what they had to say. paula? >> well, natalie, we know that pyongyang was not going to be happy with the fact this movie went ahead and did air. certainly we're hearing that today from the statements from state run media. it originated from the all powerful national defense commission. this is a very powerful institution in north korea showing just how seriously pyongyang takes the fact that the interview" went ahead and was released. now they're blaming not only sony pictures for the release of this movie but also the u.s. president barack obama singling him out for criticism saying that heectively bullied the cinemas into releasing this movie. let's read some of that statement. it says "u.s. president obama is the chief culprit who forced the sony pictures entertainment to the indiscriminately distribute the movie and took the lead in apiecing and blackmailing sinna ma houses and theaters in the u.s. mainland to distribute th

paula hancocks, cnn, seoul. >> thank you very much.pert for dell security works, a dell subsidiary based here in atlanta. first, with welcome. then your reaction to this new take that north korea had nothing to do with the hack? >> well, i'm not personally or professionally in a position to speculate exactly on the attribution, but you're right there's a lot of controversy in the security community about the attribution that's been put out there. internet response and digital forensics attribution is one of the most difficult things that we do. there's obviously evidence that the united states government does not want to release due to protecting their own sources and methods, you know, what has been released does have some connections to prior attacks that have been allegedly attributed to north korea, so there's some overlap there, but there's valid concerns being raised in the community and the skeptical feedback that's out there. >> i want to talk to you about the other hack that's now occurred and this is the one that's impacting

>> paula hancocks in borneo thank you so much.'s bring in captain tim taylor submersible specialist and the captain of tiburon. do you think it's likely that this object that has been picked up by the sonar, even though the airline won't yet confirm it do you think it's likely the main cabin of the jet? >> i don't have the knowledge to say it's likely but if it is you know it -- it's -- it's amazing, to find the whole cabin intact after what it had to go through. >> david, you told me earlier that you think we actually know less today than we did yesterday. explain what you mean. >> well yesterday if you recall they said the aircraft had gone into the water that the debris was located six miles from where they last had a radar fix on the radar which would indicate it was a deepsteeper deep stall. it went from six miles to 120 miles that was a mistake. they also told us other information that we knew this we knew that. we knew that the sonar had found this aircraft. now we don't know if it found it or not. it's backed off on it. so

. >> cnn's paula hancocks is live with the latest. what do they know paula?rter: well carol, at this point they're saying that the focus is on finding the passengers and the crew. ten bodies we understand at this point have been retrieved, and we know that two of them have already come through here. we are in kalimantan on the west coast, about 110 nautical miles away from the crash site where the bodies are brought first, treated and prepared and then they basically have the initial identification here before being sent to surabaya and the families. you saw the two coffins arriving earlier today. we understand there are obviously more bodies that will be coming here in the near future. now what they do here is they basically treat the body and they also try and make some kind of identification for example, how tall the person is whether they're male, female any identitying marks, any visual identification they can give. remember the families themselves were asked for recent photos they were asked for any details that could help the identification and then al

and our paula hancocks has the latest from there. >> reporter: this is the first-stop hospital for the victims of the airasia crash on the west coast of borneo. overnight on wednesday, two more bodies were brought to this hospital. sirens announced their arrival and red cross and hospital workers were waiting with gurneys for two ambulances. they were then rushed into a special wing that's in this hospital where hospital workers were waiting to treat the bodies and also to carry out the initial identification. what they'll be doing is they'll be trying to look for identifying marks for height gender facial recognition, anything that could tell them who these victims are. the families had been asked to give these kind of details, to give up-to-date photos just for this eventuality. the bodies are then prepared and placed in a casket. then it will be flown to surabaya and for formal identification by the family. the process of retrieving these bodies appears to be very slow in part because of the weather. there has been heavy rain at the site of the crash and in the nearby locations. the

. >> let's go to cnn's paula hancocks. she joins us from nooetsz where some of the operations are being launched. for now they say it is under the sea, has that refocused the search efforts? >> reporter: i just spoke to the first marshal in charge of the operation here on this island. and he said at this stage they haven't managed to narrow down the search. he basically said it is still very random. he gave us an area that is being looked at at this point, 240 by 240 nautical miles, so an immense area. it is being cordoned off to make sure that they don't miss any areas. there's also 12 different sections sorry, five by air, 12 by sea and three by land. and now with the null of ships, helicopters and planes has increased significantly, we have the latest figures here. there's more than a dozen ships out there at this point in the java sea trying to find any indication of this plane. it's just from the indonesian side. we also know that malaysia and singapore have given assets to try and help this search. australia and sout

>> paula hancocks reporting live for us this morning. i appreciate it. the search for flight 8501 with peter goals, a former ntsb managing director. i'll also joined by former inspector general of the u.s. department of transportation mary schiavo. good morning to both of you. peter, an official says sonar may have detected the plane's wreckage but there's been no confirmation the plane has been found. how close are they do you think? >> well i think the indonesians have done an outstanding job in pinpointing the crash site. i mean, they obviously had good radar information, they've sent their assets to the right location. it's going to take a little time to zero in on the wreckage because the sonar as we saw in flight 370, you pick up false signals. but i think they're getting to it. they'll get to it fairly quickly. we're on the final days of this terrible tragedy. >> mary we know there's terrible weather out there. it's monsoon season it's supposed to rain into friday. will that change the location of the wreckage much? >> it won't change the location

paula hancocks, cnn, indonesia. >> our thanks to paula. and it's not just the locals searching, a handful of countries. china, france malaysia australia, the united states, the uss sampson is in the java sea. and a second ship will join, as well. but how difficult will it be to recover this? walk us through what we can expect. >> well, the first thing you can expect is fairly favorable conditions. and by that this location where the debris has been spotted here is only about 100 miles offshore here. it is in an area that is generally shallow, 131 feet is the average. the area we're talking about is more like here about 100 feet down. that's all promising. now, that said don't forget that any kind of operation under water like this is always challenge ing challenging. at this level, you can have divers that could reach down to the bottom and help in the search for the flight data recorder the voice recorder, for big pieces like engines, things like that certainly, it's much easier to put a sonar array out there to catch the pinging off the

cnn's paula hancocks boarded a boat with some local civilians who desperately wanted to help in the search efforts. >> reporter: it was a little choppy but the visibility was quite significant. there was only a little bit of rain really nothing to talk about, so visibility would have been good as well from the air clearly as you can see the aircraft did spot parts of the debris. so it was, the weather did hold and that was conducive to the search and rescue operation certainly. as soon as we did hear the reports that in fact the location had been identified the fishing boat we were on turned around and came back to harbor. it was just a local fishing boat who had offered to help just showing the community here wanting to be part of this and wanting to do everything that they could, and as you can imagine, the mood coming back to the harbor was very somber. these fishermen were not only trying to help with the search and rescue operation, but they are fellow indonesians, and certainly most of these passengers and crew on board this flight were indonesian as well. one man who was part of the

cnn's paula hancock is at the staging area for the search. >> reporter: the search-and-rescue operation grown in size this monday. we are at the airport on the island of belitung. all day search and rescue helicopters have been coming in. they're going out on sorties, come back here to refuel have a briefing to find out where they should be going next and heading off. this is becoming one of the staging areas for this search-and-rescue operation. now, this island is one of the closest areas to that last point of contact that the plane had and this is the area that much of the search-and-rescue operation is focusing on. according to one official we just spoke to, the search area now is 240 by 240 nautical miles so a very large area. they're cordoning it off, sectioning it off to make sure there's no overlap, to make sure they don't miss any areas. they're doing this very systematically. i spoke first to marshal sipcypriot cyprioti and he says they haven't been able to narrow the search down. >> translator: we're searching all areas. later if we get new data we can narrow it down. >> i as

let's go to cnn's paula hancocks. she joins us now from seoul. paula, what more can you tell us?a, details are fairly scarce at this point, obviously. airasia is desperately trying to find out what has happened to this flight. they haven't given us many details, as they're clearly unable to. all they can confirm is the fact that this flight from surabaya in indonesia to singapore did lose contact with air traffic control at 7:24 a.m. local time. now, that's about four hours ago. and according to some reports, it should have reached singapore a couple of hours ago, but hasn't at this point. now, we do know there's a search and rescue operation in progress. we're hearing this from airasia themselves. they say they're cooperating fully in trying to assist this rescue service and that they will give more information just as soon as they can. now, there are some reports out there that we can't confirm at this point suggesting that the pilot had requested to descend because of turbulence, had requested an unusual route. now, we don't know at this point whether or not that is correct. w
