debris was found 60 miles north of the french riviera city of nice.om costello talking earlier, until they know how big the debris field is and collect information from data recorders, everything is on the table as far as what went wrong. want to show you bullet points things we were able to confirm. 144 passengers on board. 6 crew members. france's president saying the victims, a lot of them were german spanish, turkish. no french on board. 45 victims are believed to be spanish. germanwings aircraft was 24 years old. jose, up until today's tragedy, the budget airline had an excellent safety record. >> thank you so much. a relatively new plane if 24 years old. coming up taking the turn on "the rundown." we are going to follow breaking news from the french alps. watching for a news conference from the airline top of the hour. we will take a short break, be back. there's the area we expect to hear from officials of the plane company that had no problems in the past. it is part of the love stanza group. this is the equivalent of the sugar in one regular

but over to the right we believe this plane went down north of niese off of the french riviera.ing to french rescue. what i was suggesting here is that the authorities are saying listen, we don't know why this plane went down at altitude but it is extraordinarily unusual to have a plane go down in what is supposed to be the easiest part of the flight. when you're literally cruising at altitude. so the immediate concern would be obviously not just losing one engine but the possibility of losing two engines because most aircraft can fly quite well on a single engine if necessary. a breach of the hull would be a possibility of the fuselage having a rapid and cataclysmic event that would have caused a decompression event. you've also got to be worried about a possible criminal event. so very early in this investigation. rescue teams are not even fully on the scene yet. but we do hear from the first teams on the scene that it does not appear that there are any survives and the concern is that this plane was descending so rapidly, 38 down to 5. normally if you have a decompression eve

authority said the airliner crashed near the town of barcelonnette, 100 kilometers near the french rivieraid the crash happened in a remote and sparsely inhabited commune in the foothills of the french alps. the airbus said it was aware of reports about the crash in the area. everybody is trying to get to the scene right now. rescue workers are having a very, very difficult time. again, the a320 is 24 years old. it's been part of lufthansa since 1991. mike? >> john cox, we are receiving reports that they lost signal with the plane when the plane was at 6800 feet. what would that indicate to you, if anything? >> i think more than anything it says that the descent was pretty rapid. i'm seeing numbers in excess of 4,000 feet a minute. that dictates a rapid descent but not one outside of what could be unusual to descend below 10,000 feet. if they had a pressurization problem descending to 10,000 would be normal but descend below that that is the question the investigators are going to be looking at is were they in control of the airplane. now, this airplane is a very modern designed airplane a
