let's bring in former ntsb investigator, greg fieth. greg, how common is this? common event. unfortunately, though, we've had a similar event last week with a different type of aircraft. it was a single engine propeller reciprocating engine airplane. the pilot failed to land at manassas, scrambled fighters, followed the airplane, saw that the pilot was unconscious and followed to it crashing in the ocean near virginia. these are rare events but when they do happen they're very noteworthy because they really compromise the safety of other aircraft in a sense because they don't have anybody at control and the air traffic controllers have now got to clear airspace, especially if the airspace is really busy. they have to clear a lot of that airspace because they don't know what the dynamic of that aircraft is going to be with regard to conflicting traffic. >> greg, can you tell us more about this particular plane? they're calling it a socat socata tbm-700, a single emergency plaengine plane. what else do you know about this particular aircraft? >> it is a general av

the ntsb is still investigating what happened there. back to you guys. >> just a sad story. >>> meanwhile a custody dispute between loudoun county parents nearly turned into an international incident. a jet leaving for china was ordered back to dulles once it reached canadian airspace and the mother of a 4-year-old is facing some very serious charges. >> reporter: it was united airlines flight 897 heading from dulles to beijing. on board was linda lu from loudoun county, her mother and 4-year-old son. the boy's father fearing his child was being taken to china called the police and at 12:39 as the plane flew over canada it was turned around. a passenger said they were told at first it was mechanical trouble. >> suddenly there was this announcement for three individuals to please get off the plane, go to the gate. finally they did stand up, two women and a male and approach seeded to the door and the gate. we saw police surround the plane, fbi on their jackets. >> reporter: lu who had joint custody of her child with her ex-husband was ar

the ntsb discussing these findings today.he study found pilots killed in 2012 tested positive for drugs four times more often than those killed in 1990 plane crashes. the ntsb study also showed most of the cases involved private pilots. and the most frequent drugs that showed up in tests include antihistamines and ingredients in vicodin and valium. >> the reason we had this investigation was because 20-plus years ago, when we looked at an airplane crash and found the presence of drugs, that's when we asked the faa to start looking at all fatally injured pilots, and that's the reason we have the database that we have today. so hopefully this will be a start to get more data, so we can make better decisions based on sound data. >> the ntsb says the doctors and the faa are not doing enough to warn pilots about how their performance could be impacted by illegal prescription and over-the-counter drugs. >>> california is greener than others when it comes to cars. we want to bring you a live picture of palo alto. the golden state ha

citizen and invite the ntsb and expertise to assist them. the big part of this is going to be not only the gathering of the data that we already know about that is air traffic control information and things like that, pilot background and all of the information we can get from family. but the bigger issue will be whether or not they can recover a substantial amount of wreckage to determine if in fact there was a mechanical malfunction or failure that ended up being the facilitator of this type of event. >> on that point, we heard what bob hager said, this can come on slowly, that perhaps the pilot might not know it's occurring, that having a little trouble breathing but not noticing it that much. how do these type of incidents usually start? is it a crack in the fuselage or leak or mechanical problem for depressurization? >> well, those are all good questions. it can be a combination of any one of those or singular event. the pressurization system on any airplane such as this or even a commercial airliner is a very complex system from the st

there's speculation the faa, ntsb speculation was there was some kind of a pressure failure and that everybody onboard lost consciousness and eventually died. here at 25,000 feet in this kind of an aircraft, fred, what would typically be the pilot's response if there is a pressurization failure? >> it's interesting. the military puts their pilots through pressurization chambers and they have time of useful consciousness. at that altitude for a healthy person usually time of useful consciousness is less than two minutes. not a lot of time. as your earlier guest indicated, you're not thinking clearly. you have lost oxygen. i have heard audiotapes of a airliners that lost oxygenization and they get goofy. you have to see what's going on. address the problem and then try to fix it and we train for this. in my airplane, i train for this. i can come down 10,000 feet a minute if i have rapid depressurization but that's recognizing the problem immediately and get down as quickly as possible. >> typically we think of these things as happening quite quickly but i suppose if could have amounted
