will ripley is live for us in kuala lumpur. will, any expectations for what we think they report is going to reveal? >> reporter: christine, we're not expecting any surprises here. we're told that this report is going to be pretty similar to one that was submitted to the international civil aviation organization a couple days ago. so, essentially, what this report is going to lay out are the facts that we already know and the facts that are assumed. the flight took off, made a turn. based on the satellite data that a team of experts here in kuala lumpur have been analyzing, they believe the plane took a southern turn down towards the indian ocean, where the flight ended, the area where they're searching now. we know that search chief angus houston is here in kuala lumpur, expected to arrive here at some point today. he will be meeting with the acting transport minister and other officials here. one thing we don't expect to be mentioned in this preliminary report is this new news from the australian company geo resonance, claimi

the plane departed from kuala lumpur at 12:41 a.m. we already knew that the plane's on-board system, acars sent its last communication. at 1:19 a.m., the last verbal communication from the cockpit is made as we just heard. at 1:24, the last communication was heard. 19 seconds later, flight 370 disappeared. and thailand spots an unknown aircraft apparently flying from the opposite direction from flight 370, scheduled flight path. 1:30 a.m., they radio that they never established contact. this is key, it is not until 5:30 a.m. that malaysian authorities activate a search. finally, the last satellite handshake from the jet was picked up from a ground station. they fail to tell them what role the military played, if any. also it was released by e-mail. not by a news conference so -- so the reporters could not question the officials. miles, what did you learn today? >> well, i learned that the malaysians are still stingy with releasing facts, first and foremost. and i learned that there really was a lack of response and lack of integration

kuala lumpur and vietnam pick up 370 on radar. at 1:21.16.ither kuala lumpur did not see it disappears or didn't do anything because they didn't know ms. was wrong until the war contactedded and said they failed to get verbal contact with flight 370 and that's when the kuala lumpur tower con can tacted hock congress, cambodia and singapore to see if they had seen or heard from the plane and up in of them had. >> so 17-minute span where nothing is going on. then we talk about the four hours span. why so long to actually start searching for it? >> we know from the report there was apparently some confusion the first two hours, and the confusion was between the tower in kuala lumpur and the operations center from malaysian airlines. at 2:03 in the morning, malaysian airlines operationser in tells the tower in kuala lumpur, that airline 370 is in cambodian air space. the tower calls cambodia and they say it's not. at 2:18 the airline tells kuala lumpur the airliner is in vietnam. they called vietnam and it's not there, either. it wasn't until 3:3

cu lal lum burr kuala lumpur rescue center was activated. did they give us any information why it took so many hours to begin the preliminary search operation? >> this is the document that does that. this goes into the four hour delay. we had a situation where malaysia airlines told air traffic control they thought it was over cambodia. that was untrue. then we had a situation somebody wondered whether it was somewhere else or had radio failure. there are gaps when nobody seems to have been saying anything. in some cases, 37 minutes. in another case, 44 minutes, two minutes, 16 minutes, 13 minutes. these are gaps between where one air traffic control is calling another, ho chi minh or kl. everybody is looking. i'm prepared to be marginally charitable and say an hour and half. planes do go off radar. there is a bit of delay, but four hours before somebody said, this is urgent, this is a crisis, frankly the traveling public has a right to expect better. >> peter, what's your main take away from this report? >> i think it is a little more detai

will ripley is in kuala lumpur. will they be able to find new information in the data they already have that could pinpoint the search even greater? >> reporter: they're certainly looking as hard as they can for that data. here in kuala lumpur, this is a city where an international team met to go over the satellite data, the other data collected about the flight path, fuel consumpti consumption. they came up with a calculation placing the plane in the area where the search showed up nothing. a similar team is meeting in australia made up of top aviation experts in the world, the united kingdom, united states, australia and boeing, the manufacturer of the 777. they are going over this information to see if they still feel their best educated guess places the plane in this particular spot. there's a lot at stake here. they are going to investigate a lot of time and money in searching the area that this team calculates as the most probable. a cost of up to $60 million. as you mentioned, you have the families of these 2

two minutes later, the plane disappeared from radar in kuala lumpur. it would be another 17 minutes. 1:38 a.m., before anyone noticed the plane had vanished. that's when ho chi minh tells kuala lumpur air traffic controllers it has not heard from flight 370. another four hours pass before a search was launched at 5:30 a.m. for the first two hours of that time period, malaysia airlines had been tracking the plane based on its intended flight path, not its actual position. something we still don't know. that mistake was admitted at 3:30 a.m. but precious time had already been lost. now the report suggesting one safety recommendation to prevent that mistake from happening again. real-time tracking of airlines. >> good morning. charlie 1. >> reporter: the report also details for the first time what and who was on the plane. the cargo manifest included four tons of mangosteens, a tropical fruit, and lithium-ion batteries which the malaysian government did not publicly confirm were on the plane until after the search began. also today, our first look at the

at one point, kuala lumpur was told that the plane might be in cambodia air space. there was a lot of wasted time before there was a plane sent up to get in the air and look for the aircraft with 239 people that was by then very far off course, flying somewhere. we don't have the answer to the biggest question of all which is where did this plane go? why? and where is it right now? that's the answer that the families need. >> after the relatives were told to go home, which i believe happened in the past 24 hours, what happened? they were clearly visibly upset. >> not to mention this report was released in english and there was not a mandarin translation. they were told within a week they would have to leave the hotels. they were told to get updates from the comfort of their homes. they were told that once they were home, steps would be home to start handing out preliminary payments. from a settlement that may come from this. obviously that is difficult news for any family. >> thank you for that report. how unusual is that? what's your reaction? >> it's direct stream
