officials with the n.t.s.b. and the federal aviation administration say it could take some time before we know exactly what caused the pilot of that world war ii vintage p-47 thunderbolt aircraft to come crashing down. saturday afternoon, the single- seat plane, largely still intact, was lifted out of the waters and carried to a site where the wreckage will be examined. but it was just hours earlier that these images, captured on social media, showed the plane hitting the water. the pilot, who witnesses say tried to escape the wreckage, has been identified by the american airpower museum as 56- year-old bill gordon. >> you could see him trying to get out of the harness or whatever, but he could not get out. >> reporter: sources tell us they have recovered a body from the crashed airplane. the crash site is not far from where u.s. airways flight 1549 was forced to make an emergency water landing shortly after takeoff back in 2009. in several facebook posts, gordon, the pilot of the small plane, is described as a n

lots of questions to be asked before the n.t.s.b. will understand exactly what happened. >> reporter: the majority of patients were treated at doctors hospital in laredo. extra staff had to be brought in to deal with the chaotic scene. chief nursing officer damon mott. >> we immediately put our disaster plan into place. staff started pouring in immediately, both from inside the hospital and outside the hospital. to mount our response to this disaster. >> reporter: investigators have not released the identity of the driver or any passengers. according to the associated press, just last year the owner of the bus, o.g.a. charters, was ordered by louisiana inspectors to take one of its carriers off the road to fix brakes and to fix brakes and emergency exit problems. >> quijano: nearly a dozen people were hurt in a fiery crash last night near disney's animal kingdom in florida. an s.u.v. traveling in the wrong bune slammed head on into a bus carrying 16 people. police say some of the injuries are serious. a horrifying scene at an air show

the plane had flown to eritria, to tunisia, and then to paris. an explosive device on a time could have been loaded anywhere says cbs news transportation security analyst and former n.t.s.b. chairman, mark rosenker. >> that's why the investigators are going to be looking at all of the stops that this aircraft made prior to coming to paris. they're going to make a very serious examination and series of interviews with anybody who had any type of exposure to this aircraft, whether it was cleaning crew, whether it was catering crew, whether it was the refueling crew, or whether it was the baggage crew. >> reporter: the search for wreckage, in fact, has become a bit of a mystery of its own. the egyptians said earlier today that greek search crews had, in fact, found debris from the plane, but the greeks later said they had found nothing of the kind. in any event, the mystery of this flight will not be solved unless and until the black box, the data recorder and the cok pit voice recorder are found, and they, charlie, are presumably at the bottom of the mediterranean sea. >> rose: thanks, mark. egypt air expressed condolences to the families of those on board. most were from

>> we will see a lot of you over the next few days, thank you for staying up late with me in paris. now, a former n.t.s.b. member, john, are you with me? >> i am. let's talk about, at this point, know. that pilot apparently did in the last minutes, we are told there were 90 degree turns before the plane plummeted 37,000 to 20,000 feet, then, 10,000 feet, where it lost contact with radar. what does that tell you, that information alone? we know it has to be catastrophic event that disrupted the airplane. that event alone causes a lot of questions to be asked. how do we know from the radar that the airplane made those turns? part of me says that the engines had to be running, we had to have power to the transponder, that it was making the turns, if radar, primary radar doesn't give that great of data. if that is the case, the engines were running, we had electrical power, why not get a broadcast from the crew. if it it would 68 that we lost control, the vertical fin. if you don't have the vertical finn, the airplane doesn't go straight longer. it won't be answer until we see physical evidence. >> if this p
