crashed it into the sea in a case of suicide. to this day, egyptian officials still are fighting at that basically that was the conclusion of the ntsb report. what we're seeing is after these three disasters, the metrojetliner and hijacking of the airplane and now egyptair flight 804. egyptian officials seem to be more flexible. maybe they learned the lesson that denying to the case ad nauseam that terrorism is involved is not helping the situation. you have to realize of course one of the prime concerns is the impact the disasters have on tourism. at this point tourism in egypt is barely breathing. of course, a case of national pride. egyptians with their multi-thousand year history is sensitive to suggest that their country is lacking when it comes to technical matters like investigating an air crash or running an airline for that matter. >> interesting that distention you made with the technical ability and the political ability and how they need to come together in the case. thank you, ben wedeman. >>> the search continues to

it's about half that size and after the old cold war, we have the baltic sea and the black sea and the south china sea and all these places to police by the u.s. navy and the challenges to it from both china and russia are growing dramatically and secondly, even ith countries like iran, any anti-shipped weapons and missiles are very sophisticated are being developed. for example, some could be in the south china sea which represent a real threat to our aircraft carriers. so in terms of strength, the united states navy is the most powerful on earth but in relative terms, other nations are growing in strength. john: go ahead. eleanor: i wouldn't use the word cry is and i think the u.s. navy still dwarfs the capacity of any other navy force in the world. and, ok, it's not good when you find a spy, a potential spy in your ranks and that's being investigated and they're being very quiet about it. so we don't know how far that goes. but the "fat leonard" scandal is typical kickbacks. it's money. and i don't connect that with the strength of the navy. so, i say no. the navy is not in crisis.

egypt air flight disappears over the mediterranean sea. we are getting breaking developments as we speak. i am maria bartiroma, that egypt air flight from cairo, from paris to cairo when it disappeared was headed to cairo. official saying the plane crashed into the sea. here is what we know. the flight had 66 passengers on board including crew, including one child, two infants, none of those passengers american. egypt there is saying the plane sent an emergency signal two hours after it disappeared from radar. greek residents and a merchant ship captain saw a fire in the sky. family the move on board going to charles they gaulle airport, cairo air force for any updates. we went to check global market action and see if there is any reaction on this breaking news. mixed performance, very fractured, but across the board this morning, take a look, travel related companies getting hit hard. the s&p is down 1% and the cac quarante 1%, the dec's index in germany another 1/2%. futures in the us look like this. we expect the lower opening and broade

so the sea surface will be calm. waves very, very light, and things will be fine. thing they do have, mediterranean on the average is a thousand feet deep. this is the where where there are deeper crevasses and canals trenches so it's a very difficult bottom of the sea floor. one of last thing to tell you, current, wise, there's different currentses within the mediterranean, not impacted by the wind so if there isn't much wind the general current would probably be pulling it away from shore, from the coast of egypt at least so that's one of the things they'll be looking at as well. >> rick mike -- reithmuth. >>> the navy released video of an earn p3 orion taking off from a base in lit to join teams from egypt and greece searching for signs of debris in the sea. this is a look at the moment of ships in the area during the early morning hours and shows merchant vessels joining the search, heading for the spot the flight is believed to have gone down. tim taylor is ceo of the sub sea services, specializing in row boltics and imaging. we just heard rick reithmuth say t

they found nothing there on the sea. so at the moment, still a big mystery as to where the plane crashed and what the cause of it was. of course, this is a region where everyone thinks of terrorism. there is no confirmation or any indication that that is the case. but cairo, egypt, has been so hit by terrorism since the arab spring that its economy has been decimated. whether this was terrorism or not, there will be huge implications to the egyptian economy. the metrojet last year was a bomb put in place by a baggage handler connected to isis. this left from charles de gaulle, french, very big, respected airport. so the idea that they could have got and bomb on at charles de gaulle is far afield, but families, very, very concerned. we'll keep you updated. >> benjamin hall, we'll check more with you later as we get more information. >> joining us now is retired air force pilot and contributor tom mcenneny. thank you for joining us. >> delighted, heather. >> you've been listening to the information as it has continued to co

when it comes to the sea, china really is thinking big. research ship will explore the world's oceans, but it will also serve as a launchpad for submarines that can explore anywhere, no matter how deep. the plan is to take humans to the deepest part of the ocean, the mariana trench in the pacific. a chinese company is developing a submarine that will dive nearly 11,000 meters down. only two manned expeditions have ever been there. >> most important part is this part. reporter: this is a model of what the submarine could look like. its head designer says it will have to endure the crushing pressures of the deep, but he wants to make the dive by 2020. >> i would like to be the first of the chinese people to reach the mariana trench. that we are creating our history -- that can be exciting. reporter: the chinese government, with its manned submersible, has also been exploring the depths. now they are building a new vessel that can go even deeper. the government stresses the purpose is scientific, but china is currently involved in territorial

look at the sea, the waves are up, the wind is up, there are white tops out there. why am i showing this to you? because a search is going on further out to sea where the waves are bigger and steeper. it's about 100 miles out. the debris found so far has been relatively small. when it was found yesterday, the sea was like a mill pond here. much calmer and much easier to spot those small pieces of debris, the luggage, the chairs, the material that's come from the aircraft. today and going forward, where the wind will pick up in the next couple of days, recovering the debris is going to be much, much harder. despite that, greek authorities here, the air force spokesman tells us that they've been able to refine the area of search a little bit. greek authorities have two military c-130 military transport aircraft on stand by to get up and fly. the visibility has been worse today, along with the worsening conditions out at sea. but they're saying that the area of search, because some debris has been found allows them to focus in a little bit. so they believe the area they

crews found the wreckage in the mediterranean sea. nt in the investigation to determine how and why that plane went down. officials say it's likely a terror attack but it's too soon to know for sure. 66 people, including three children, on board the flight when it vanished en route from paris to cairo earlier today. the u.s. navy has been assisting with the search sending reconnaissance aircraft to search from the air. >> the u.s. military has reached out to kourpt par

the greek air force have two of these aircraft out over the sea. have a surveillance aircraft as well. we know that the british military have a naval vessel in the area. and the military with several or rye or ionp-3 allows them to focus in the area, southeast whereof the aircraft disappeared off the radar. it's a little north of that first debris field was found on thursday. of course, this a concern. the debris spotted b the air has to be checked on the ground. that slows down the operation. that is part of what's going on here. the greek air force putting in a lot of effort here they're willing to use their air base like this one here offering it to the allies to join efforts to help the authorities discover precisely where this egyptair craft went down. >> of critical interest is the plane's flight recorder. the black box as it's commonly called. but the units aren't actually black, they are orange, to make them easier to spot wreckage. the data recorders are located in the tail of the plane where they're less likely to be damaged from impact. t

it's believed that it went down around the mediterranean sea. i assume that investigators are looking in two areas. they're considering what might have brought this plane down could and they're looking at the efforts. what's happening right now in terms of this mystery? >> the first thing they have to do is find the aircraft. they'll be trying to listen for the emergency locator transmitters which, in fact, go through a satellite. hopefully that will pinpoint where most of the aircraft might be. they'll be looking carefully to find, to recover the black boxes, flight data recorder, cockpit voice recorder. it will help discover if this was an accident or perhaps a terrorist act. >> we heard from elaine. she was cutting in and out, but she mentioned conflicting reports about what's described as a distress signal. can you tell us a little about that? what type of distress signal could this possibly be? is this the sort of thing that could maybe go off automatically, or would it require the pilot to put out a mayday ll signal was. if it was the emerg

right now we're seeing changes in the form of a strengthening sea breeze. winds at 12 to 14 miles per hour across the peninsula. it's not just the wind but the fog coming back in right now. you can see that view from the north bay looking from belvedere to the south and white caps across the water of the bay. oakland now down to 76 degrees from 80 earlier. dublin, still some warm temperatures, 82 degrees. you see the clouds will building over the hill tops. this is one area we'll watch tonight for the slight chance of a few showers. we've seen the clouds building up around the hills there. most of the action has been north of sonoma county and north of the sierras. notice how that moisture is kind of drifting off to the west. it will be this batch for eastern contra costa counties. alme alameda counties. probably the best chance of seeing an isolated evening showers. the low clouds over san francisco for tomorrow morning and all day sea breeze during the day tomorrow will ensure that those days of mid and upper 80s like we saw around brentwood and antioch to

with that wind increase increases the sea. the average depth of the mediterranean sea is 5,000 feet. right where the plane went down is deeper part of the mediterranean 8 to 10,000 feet. anything sinking becomes a much more difficult thing to find. one last thing, kimberly, the current -- the wind is one thing to push waves but the overall current in the mediterranean, lots of different patterns here. where this is likely would pull it away from the shore of egypt. one of the things they will be looking at to see the debris in area and direction that moves in. >> thank you for that update. >> you bet. >> very important information from the fox weather center. now to another big story tonight, legendary television journalist morally shaffer has died. he was 84 years old. safer was the longest serving reporter in prime time history. throughout his 60 minutes career which began in 1970, safer worked on more than 900 stories. he covered topics ranging from investigative pieces to war covering stories around the world. emmy winning

the submarine will scour the bottom of the sea for the jet's black boxes. investigators believe what will reveal from the flight. whether it was mechanical failure or terrorism or something else. french authorities confirmed that the plane sent automated messages signals smoke at the front of the aircraft moments before it disappeared from the radar. joining us now is cnn's ian lee from cairo. ian, have they made it to the spot of the site of the debris? >> reporter: we not have been able to hear if the submarine has made it on site. on board the submarine, it has an array of cameras and arms with claws that will be able to manipulate items from the bottom of the sea to get to the black boxes. that is one of the main priorities for egyptian officials right now. as you said, over the weekend, we got a message from the akar system that there was smoke on the plane. we don't want to speculate what that means. it does add another clue to this and to really get a broader picture. they want the black boxes to go through them to see what the pilots were saying and

it could be from some other -- it could be from a ship in the sea. ight now that is the only distress call that we are hearing about from egyptian officials. but what we're also hearing right now is that president el sisi of egypt is going to convene an emergency meeting of the national security council to talk about this plane crash. right now, it's important to note that we don't know the cause of the crash. was it mechanical? was it terror-related? we just don't know. so that is going to be one of the crucial elements as we move forward apart from trying to find this aircraft, find the wreckage, and hopefully find survivors. >> and time is of the essence if this aircraft did in fact go down in the mediterranean. our meteorologists are telling us based on weather conditions, a fit human can survive for many hours in the water. have officials given you any indication as to how long it will take before they can get a visual on the general vicinity? of course if there's an oil slick or debris, that will be key to confirming the crash itself. >> reporte

the seas are calm. as we get closer to the summer, the seas are calmer. prior to that, we had several weeks of rough seas. we know from officials in libya and in italy, there are hundreds of thousands waiting to make the dangerous crossing. when the weather clears up, the traffickers bus them to the shore and on boats that are barely sea worthy. vessels 60 or 70 feet long designed to take a dozen or so people crammed to the gills. one boat went down with 670 people on board. a small ship went out to sea without a motor. it was towed by another crammed with people. the intention of the traffickers is not to deliver people safely. they send them out far enough into the mediterranean so a distress signal can be sent and italian navy and coast guard can pick them up. a cynical game with a high human toll. christine. >> cynical game indeed. ben wedeman in rome this morning. thank you. >>> more uncertainty clouds the peace process in syria. the main opposition group is quitting because talks have failed to end the cease-fire. last month's peace talks broke down
