joining me is nbc's tom costello and on the phone is former pilot, jim tillman. tom, what, if anything, do we know about the plane, its make, who owns it? >> well, there's a lot of speculation about who owns it. at the moment i'm going to refrain from getting into that. this flight left rochester this morning headed to naples. the faa says they have not had any radio contact with this plane since 10:00 a.m. it was bound for naples. as you might expect, it had enough fuel to get there we would imagine and then some, as you see in most cases. but this plane has now traversed the better part or most of cuba and the question is where is it now. we know that these two fighter jets dispatched from norad tracked this plane as it was unresponsive over southern florida, then over the ocean. but those planes had to break off as the plane headed into cuban airspace. keep in mind, airspace is about 12 miles from the coast. so 12 miles out from cuba, the american planes broke off. we're told that cuban military plane, at least one, maybe two, intercepted the plane at that poi
