Mountain. Every step, every slip. The climb you have to see to believe. Good evening and we begin with the flight disappearing in midair as it flew to beijing. This is the flight tracker that showed the plane taking off from malaysia. You can see some of the other planes in the sky. Take a closer look. Right in the middle is flight 370. The tracker showing it flying at 35,000 feet. Suddenly the track stops. The data flight from the communication from the cockpit gone. The altitude on the tracker suddenly plummeting to zero. Tonight the images emerging from the airport in beijing. Families waiting and learning something had gone terribly wrong. A man putting his hand to his forehead. A loved one there holding on to him. Back when the plane took off, this image of a woman on the phone as the shock set in as well. We have Team Coverage beginning with abc at the beijing airport. Reporter good evening. Yes, this has been a very difficult time for these family members and these friends of those who were supposed to land here in beijing on that plane. But it didnt happen. Searchers are focusing on two oil slicks. One, 12 miles long spotted in the south china sea. Between malaysia and vietnam. The u. S. Is sending this destroyer and a sophisticated radar plan to help. But there have been no signs of wreckage or debris. The disappearance of the flight with 239 people onboard is a baffling and tragic mystery. We do know at 12 41 00 a. M. Local time Malaysia Airlines flight 370 a boeing 777 takes off. 2 40 a. M. The plane is cruising at 35,000 feet when it loses radar contact where the sea meets the gulf of thailand. No distress call is received. 6 30 a. M. Family members await. Two hours go by before the plane is declared missing. No use. No nothing. Still waiting. Reporter at this Hotel Room Family members gathered in tears. I dont want to live. What is the point of me being alive says this mother whos 40yearold son was on boaboard plane. Officials came out to talk, hundreds of people had poured in creating a dangerous situation in the hotel. Out of control here. I cant even believe this. We are working with authorities who are activated the search and rescue reporter there have been no claims of terrorism. But reports say two passengers on the plane were traveling on pass ports stolen from european travelers. Three u. S. Citizens were onboard. And two children of chinese parents. The only u. S. Adult is thought to be an executive who worked in malaysia. Twothirds of the passengers were chinese. The rest from 13 other countries. The captain was very experienced having flown over 30 years and 18,000 hours from Malaysia Airlines. It is sunday morning. The family members and friends are waiting for more information about exactly what happened on that plane. But it is taking some time. David. Bob, as you point out those families waiting to hear what might have happened to that plane. There are theories emerging tonight. Abc picking up the story from there of what might have happened to 370. Reporter no radio call or mayday suggesting something happened very quickly to the 11yearold 777. It never happens. An airplane does not just drop out of the sky. The jet had no major issues. In 2012 its wing tip was damaged on the ground in singapore when it struck another aircraft. So what happened . Among the possibilities catastrophic structural failure. Were there hidden cracks . Failing rivets . Or even the possibility of a bomb, which led to the fuselage breaking up. Catastrophic engine failure on a jet, boeing says, can fly across an ocean on one engine. Losing two engines, they could have restarted it. Highly unlikely they would lose all electrical power. They have backup system on backup system. This is a really reliable plane. Reporter other possibilities that cant be eliminated yet cockpit breached by intruders or pilot suicide, which took down an egypt air flight off nantucket from massachusetts in 1999, and man and machine interface. Todays modern aircraft are so technically advanced, pilots can sometimes not recognize when there is a problem. This is exactly what happened when air france 447 also disappeared in a storm. Some of its sensors werent working correctly and the pilots didnt realize they were losing air speed. They stalled the big jetliner, which fell into the atlantic killing all on board. Time is of the essence to recover the black boxes. The batteries last only a month. If the batteries run out we dont have the pinger then we have nothing to guide us where the wreckage might be. Reporter years later a mini sub recovered the black boxes. The race is on the way to find the 777 to solve the mystery of ma la shah flight 370. 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 thats 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 . Its a little over 600 feet. That means they will be able to find it. Thats not a terrible depth of a rough bottom that would make a major problem. They will be able to find this. As you know, its believed the cockpit had been calling in in the coordinates of the plane. In this day and age with gps and sophisticated satellites why arent we able to track these planes every moment . There are dark zones that we dont have radar coverage on. During those times when youre in one of those zones without active radar youre reporting your own position. Either verbally or electronically. You know with gps where you are but youre on your own to report it. We thank you all. Our Team Coverage of the midair mystery continues throughout the night and of course, first thing in the morning on good morning america. There is one more note tonight.

Charged with attempted murder as her own children described those terrifying moments. Reporter a first real look at the 32yearold pregnant mother who police say intended to kill her three children by plunging her minivan into the ocean.

I am a citizen. Reporter she has not entered a plea. Her family outside court asking for compassion. You need to have some type of sympathy. Reporter charged with three counts of attempted murder and child abuse. Watch. Thats her 10yearold son waving for help lowering the windows after his mom. They tell police mom tried to kill us and mom was going to drive us into the ocean to die. Wilkerson told police she was simply driving too close to the water, that the waves took her in.

The bill a result of the details released in the documentary black fish which focuses on the death of a trainer in seaworld killed by an orca associated with two other deaths. This routine of having shows you have at 1 00 is a human construct put on these animals and stresses them out.
