i want to bring in john nance, a pilot himself. quite a few viewers asking about drones. why not use a couple of predators. they can search in any weather, longer, over greater areas. what about drones john? >> there's no question a drone can do a better job and they do have cameras aboard. we have human eyes on the water. because a drone will be take millions of pictures at least tens of thousands and a human has to go through them. if there's one on site you're going to be able to see that and that's the one you're looking for. >> the new image from the chinese and the possible debris in the water. win on the asking could the satellite have continued to track the debris until help arrived? >> if it had been real time. but the problem is we get three, four days after the picture has been taken and the satellite moved off. it's hoarding around at 17,000 mile an hour. at an orbit of about 150 miles. this is not like the satellite that can look down and constantly hover. those don't have the capabilities. our problem is time. >> john, this next question about the cockpit an

that is the big question. >> john nance is right.i have questions about the range of the aircraft, if it was down at 12,000 feet, might have come short from where they are looking. that is also true. my problem with this is mrsat which is a good company, if they make a claim like that i would like to see the report. that is a simple statement. we still haven't heard the atc communications, the air traffic control communications to the crew. we haven't seen the maintenance records of the airplane. it is a consistent opaque investigation and is frustrating. >> what is your view on that? we haven't seen the formal air traffic communications. we have seen reports of some of them but haven't seen them all. >> to a certain extent richard and i agree for the most part here, not that i don't disagree with the other two gentlemen but the basic idea is this is a tempest in a tea pot. we have been standing on a stack of shaky alleged facts and had to analyze this to the extent we wanted to or needed to based on a lot of shifting back and forth.

it's a mount nance border. insi these are the issues. it's a mount nance border. shiia villages around this area. we are hearing gunfire from a funeral taking place of 2 hezbollah men who were killed on sunday in that car bomb that followed the announcement that the jabud was taken, commanders by hezbollah, we believe. so, it's very tension. we have just come back from inside arsaw and the lebanese says we have been living together with lebwa forever. we want the army to secure this mount nance border and get what he called terrorists under control. but as he said, and as we know, we have been to the area. it's mountainous terrain. no one is in control. it's difficult to control that area. >> just the fact that the lebanese army has been deployed there, do you think their presence would actually help ease the tensions? >> well, it certainly diffused the tension we have seen here over the last couple of days. the last three days, it was extremely tension down here. our team came down a couple of days ago and hezbollah men, also, shiia civilians had closed off this

all right, john nance, thank you. and our coverage continues at abcnews.com and of course, first thing in the morning right here on "good morning america." >>> in the meantime, we turn next to california tonight, where a high school horror played out right in front of hundreds of proud parents. they were watching their children perform, when suddenly, the stage gives way. everyone does survive, but the pictures are harrowing. here's abc's bazi kanani, reporting in from los angeles. >> reporter: a heart-stopping moment for students and parents in this packed anaheim high school auditorium. the front part of the stage at servite high school suddenly dropping out, parents rushing to their children. those attending the school performance, trying to make sense of what happened. >> it was already at the end of the show. they were getting ready to judge the contestants and everything just came to a screeching halt. >> reporter: the cause of this stage collapse? just too much weight, according to police, who say 250 students

so, let's bring in abc news aviation consultant and former commercial pilot john nance who joins us from seattle. let's talk about this chinese satellite imagery. to you does this seem like a promising lead? >> well, it's just as promising as the previous one if we can get there in time. we don't know when these pictures were taken, dan, and that was one of the things before was three days between the time the picture was and the time anybody started to search. this is about the right size for a, for instance, wing or another portion of the airplane so it is intriguing, and it has some promise if they can get there in time before it either sinks or drifts away. >> so we're looking at the image right now. in fact, we just found out right before we came on the air that the image is four days old. given that information, given the size of the search area and the chop of the seas there, how optimistic should we be about finding this? >> i think we need some luck. we need a lot of luck on this because the time is running out on the beepers or the pingers, rather, and this is a huge area of oc

i want to bring in a captain that's flown the 777 and john nance is back with us.t me start with you. people have been talking about hijacking or pilot suicide. but five hours this plane may have flown, dramatic altitude changes and turns and you still think it's possible it was mechanical? >> i'm very skeptical. when you talk about losing 40,000 feet or just dramatic amounts of altitude, it's just impossible to me. which means that the data, if it was coming from the engines, there's a possibility that that data was corrupted. maybe a de-icing situation, even though we're saying it was clear air. we don't know. now i'm talking about a situation from the engines itself, because the everythings have a similar system to the airplane itself. >> the pedo tubes, which were in a different part of the plane responsible for the crash of air france flight 447. but the dramatic changes in direction could have happened because the flight crew was dealing with something else? >> my contention is something was occurring down below the galley, where it was disabling the entire g

and john nance, aviation analyst for abc news with more than 13,000 hours of flight time in commercialair force jets. so let's start with you. one of the theories that a lot of people have been particularly focusing on in the last couple of days is the idea of a fire on board. and the pilot and copilot perhaps trying to make an emergency landing at a different malaysian airport. what do you make through that, les? >> to me it's one of the more plausible scenarios. i'm not sold on that scenario. but up until the point we got this information which i'm still skeptical about the 12 minutes prior, it seemed to me that having a smokization, getting beyond that last verbal communication with air traffic control, it seems to me that if the crew was trying to handle an emergency, realized they had an emergency what would happen in my cockpit would be i'd say avenue got the airplane. and then the copilot would begin the checklist process. since i have the airplane, the flight management computer would be part of my control. and i without put in that way-point and go to the copilot and verify th

. >>> i want to bring in abc john nance. you heard david report there on the pinging, the block box. how long does the pinging last? >> 30 days is the guarantee from the manufacturer. on both the cockpit and data flight recorder. it may go longer. but that's what they have got in terms of length of time. >> given what we know about where the oil is, what do we know about the water, how deep it is, what does this mean for investigators? >> it's a little over 600 feet. that means they will be able to find it. that's not a terrible depth of a rough bottom that would make a major problem. they will be able to find this. >> as you know, it's believed the cockpit had been calling in in the coordinates of the plane. in this day and age with gps and sophisticated satellites why aren't we able to track these planes every moment? >> there are dark zones that we don't have radar coverage on. during those times when you're in one of those zones without active radar you're reporting your own position. either verbally or electronically. y

i want to bring in our aviation expert john nance. john, so many viewers asking the same thing, why isn't there a satellite gps locateor on the black box? >> he's exactly right. the problem is, if this thing is under 15,000 or 16,000 feet of water, you can't get a radio signal out to reach a satellite. i agree, if we can find an engineering solution that would be excellent. >> and john, the next question has to do with the cockpit and the pilots them, cody asking, is there a legitimate reason to turn off the trackers? pilots shutting down the systems that track their planes in the first place. >> well, we don't expect our pilots to be hiding and turning off the equipment for that purpose, so the system is not engineered that way. we have a legitimate need to turn those things off, because if they're in the air and they malfunction, the same thing on the ground, too many airplanes on the ground squawking those systems could be a problem. >> will that change thinking here? >> it could. but then, again, we have 93,000 flights a year over

as you just heard from john nance, he doesn't think that anyone without experience could have done ittom foreman is "outfront" tonight. with this latest reporting from abc, and then the shutdown of the systems. you've been looking at the systems. what can you tell us? >> well, i know john. the most important thing he said was, take this with a grain of salt. airplanes are floating communication stations. it took off, traveled for an hour, then vanished with absolutely no information. so many ways that it could communicate. let's bring out a model. i want to start with the most basic thing. the radio system. talking about a plane like this, in the cockpit, a basic radio system. pilots use it all the time. they used it right before the plane went silent. if there's a problem, the masks have a system where they can send out a distress signal. beyond that, if you look at the avionics bay underneath the nose of the plane, that's where the transponders are. they say yes, there's a plane up here. this is malaysian air, we're headed here. this is our location. this is what they're all about.

i hung up the phone and said nance, pack up. what would spend a lot of time.turned to be a -- [indiscernible] >> is it the greatest game you ever saw? >> i get sidetracked. i was asked after the game where does it rank? i said like on rote, second two jack nicklaus. i read mike online at he had a column that sunday listed the eight reasons why alabama/auburn was the greatest finish in sports. i thought i might want to revise. >> and you agree with him, the greatest finish in sports that you know? you have to give a lot of thought. but i would. the greatest -- my partner gary, he sent me an e-mail. about four days after that. he said, so, you have done duke/kentucky and now auburn/alabama. you did tiger. what is next for you? [laughter] >> talk about tonya for a moment. never more hype. 50%. >> 48%. connie chung anchoring below us. dan rather was there. i watched both 30/30 on espn and the nbc report which i thought was really well done. mary had access to tonya and nancy. nancy has never spoken about it. >> did she get married to a sportscaster? >> she married

conference football package, and i said the appropriate thing to my boss and hung up the phone and said, nance, pack your bags, we're going to spend a lot of time in the south. it turned out professionally by far the most significant thing that happened to me. >> charlie: really? yeah. >> charlie: because? because i had been a second banana. i'd been a happy second banana in a lot of sports, but i never had my own package. let's see, this is the 14t 14th year. so i was getting close to 60. and life in the nfl was very comfortable, and life as the number two guy was very comfortable. i worked with a lot of really wonderful men, but i'd never had my own package. we went to the sec, and i worked initially with todd blackledge for six years and gary danielson for eight, and i think our decision as a network to take what is essentially a regional sport, college football, and try to promote it nationally was concurrent -- and i'm not a big bcs fan -- but the bcs did make every game in every part of the country relevant so that, all of a sudden, people in spokane and seattle had a reason to know and

we're not going to make it where we're headed to beijing, let's turn around and go back to the mate nancee not going to go back to kuala lumpur if they're not thinking it's a severe emergency. >> would that not have necessitated a mayday call or would that not be the sort of thing that rises to a mayday call? >> it definitely would have been. whenever you're going off course like that it does -- it would also the acar system would have sent an emergency message, something is happening here, throttles are back, diving down to 12,000 feet. when they made the turn the acar system was already disabled. >> the person of bad intention would have wanted to turn off a transponder but there would be no motivation to turn off acar, correct, or disable it? >> of course it would. remember, acar is sending as many as 10,000 points a second. >> thanks so much for being here. appreciate your time. >>> some families of those aboard flight 370 received a text telling them the plane was considered lost for good. a text. was it rude? maybe. i'm going to tell you what really wasn't all that uncommon about th

and when the secretary hagel, and i appreciated his statement, he said american dam nance on the seas and skies and in space can no longer be taken for granted. does that concern you as much as it concerns me? >> i think in the context of globally that chinese military and the gloth of the military won't be -- growth of the military won't be a global competitor with u.s. security for a number of decades, depending on how fast they spend and what they invest in. the biggest concern is regionally, where they have the ability to influence the outcome of events around some of our -- many of our partners and our allies by the defense capabilities that they're pursuing. >> in the quote i read out this morning's "stars and stripes," was that an accurate quote? >> i haven't read the article but i believe that it is -- what you quoted is accurate. >> judging from our discussions in my office, i think that is an accurate quote and i think people need to talk about it. general, we are looking now at a new kim junk and you and i talked in -- jung and you and i talked in my office. my concern is,

"out front" major james spider marks and john nance. great to have you both with us. you because there's so much here to talk about now but when we put all of this reporting together, john, we have a plane that turned off of its flight path, started to switch direction dramatically, switch altitude dramatically and then finally seemed to sort of level out heading out and then made a choice. i'm going to go left or i'm going to go right. when you put all that together, let's talk about motive. who would want to do this or could this have happened in any way, shape or form with everybody on the plane being incapacitated or dead and the plane kept flying? >> i think not. i think that's ruled out by the very physiology of it. the aircraft is not going to make course changes. it might make altitude changes but you would see the type of altitude change would not be sharp. if it went up to 45,000 feet after it turned away and off course and it sustained that 45,000 foot altitude which is above its ceiling for any length of time and there's only one reason for doing that to i

i ask nance scent that chris landberg, from the senate foreign relations committee, be granted floor privileges for the consideration of any legislation related to ukraine, support act of 2014, the original request comes from my colleague, chairman bob menendez from. >> without objection. >> madam president. >> senator from new jersey. >> madam president, first let me thang my two colleagues, both distinguished member0s of the smart foreign relations committee, senator mccain and senator durbin for their work and leadership on this issue that created the type of bipartisan spirit that is incredibly in important in general, and certainly in foreign relations, and they both add greatly to the legislation that couple out that we are considering before the floor in the straw bipartisan vote of the committee. madam president, last week some of my colleagues in the chamber were sanctioned by vladimir putin for standing up for the ukrainian people. standing up for freedom. standing up for their democratic aspirations, standing up for the sovereignty of the ukraine, and as i said in brussels

they're seeing a message down for mainly nance.services officials saying it is a software bug being radar. >> a loft push to get americans insured through the affordable care act, but for millions buying health care is financially out of reach. for some, free clinics are the only option. >> once a month for four months, diane brown has come to the arlington free clinic in virginia hope to go get care. >> this is it for anyone who doesn't have medical insurance and can't afford it, this clinic is the only way and unfortunately, it is the only one here in our area. >> the clinic saw 1700 people but turned away more. it holds a monthly lottery to pick more patients. >> hopefully today, i'm praying that i will get the lottery and i'll be accepted. >> brown is too young for medicare and without a disability or dependent children, doesn't qualify for medicaid. virginia has the fourth toughest eligibility requirements in the country. she's caught in a coverage gap. >> every place i called, obamacare is $200, $300, $400 a month. if you onl

police responded with tear gas and water can nance.ashed out at vice president biden who blamed him for the unrest. >> joe biden arrived in chile and the first thing he did was to attack venezuela and latin america. he is an abuser, joe biden, comes to attack the people. we reject his attack. >> the middle class are fed up with inflation, food shortages and rising crime rates. paul beban is in caracas and following all the political fallout. >> when the sun goes down, the streets are caracas go up in flames. this is an upper class neighborhood rocked by violence virtually every night. in the morning, the barricades come down, life goes on and the mayor, a member of the main opposition party hernandez from his concerned constituents. >> we need to keep the streets on fire. >> we can't use the young people at human shields. >> we need to break the cycle as soon as possible before the cycle breaks us. >> just up the road is another world, the quiet neighborhood. in this mecca for the megarich, security fences keep the outside world out, o

also civilian the fans volunteers in the nance green gin say they intercepted and stopped a grainy army convoy of vehicles were heading east towards the border with russia as ryan o'neal now reports. tensions have taken a sinister turn here in donetsk following sunday's referendum after reports of emerged that activists stopped military movements of soldiers and the quitman from ukraine moving towards the russian border here activists from the self-defense groups apparently blipped about twenty trucks that were carrying soldiers as well as military equipment including irregular and i have on the military vehicles. he said should really sore about fifteen to twenty armored vehicles we stopped them in the commanders told us they were on their way to military drills but we realized that they were heading towards the russian border politely asked them to turn back there were a couple of hours of negotiations with the agreed and left what was also in neighboring lugansk locals blocked railway lines with scrap metal and carriages to stop the transportation on the train of a large military equ

where the american people could stand to benefit from congressional action but because of objects nance and obstruction on the other side, you've got close to two million long-term unemployment -- long-term unemployed americans who find themselves in a distressed financial situation. now, earlier today we were informed that a bipartisan agreement was reached in the senate and hopefully that means we will see progress in that chamber at some point this month. which means that we have a real opportunity here in the house of representatives to act in a manner that would benefit long-term unemployed americans. and why should we do that? well, because there are many individuals all across this country, and in the district i represent in brooklyn and in queens, but all across america, who find themselves unemployed, not because of their lack of interest, not because of lack of effort, not because of an unwillingness to work, but because of structural changes that have occurred in our economy, particularly in the aftermath of the great recession of 2008. and we know that when the economy colla
