kilohertz and that it consistently pulsed at a 1.106 second interval. they therefore assess that the transmission was not of natural origin and was likely sourced from specific electronic equipment. they believe the signals to be consistent with the specifications and description of a flight data recorder. after 11 military aircraft, four civil aircraft, and up to 14 ships will assist in today s search. a modified ap-3 c will coordinate with ocean shield in conducting a sonobuoy search in the same vicinity. today, a weak front is moving in
then houston said they ve sent the data from the first two to the australian acoustic experts. they revealed it s stable, concise, pings of 1.106 per second and it is consistent. they have confirmed and their view is it s consistent with being it s not natural and it is electronic and it is consistent with it being a flight data recorder. so they are confident because of a few factors. one, over time they have been agating more handshakes, more satellite data, more gps and radar that make them comfortable with the arc? yes. they re also confident because all of the indicia of whether or not this is a pinger from a battery from a black box is about right, and they re in the same area, so it points to we re doing the right thing. you re a good student. those are exactly the points they make.
will find the plane s wreckage. fresh signals detected by the pinger locator aboard the ocean shield brings that to four signals, all located within 17 miles of one another. the man in charge of the search detailing the discovery and where things go from here now. the analysis determined that a very distinct and clear signal was detected at 33.331 kill aowe hertz and it consistently pulsed at a 1.106 second interval. i therefore assess that the transmission was not of natural origin and was likely sourced from specific electronic equipment. what we are picking up is a great lead. we ve got to visually acquire before we can say this is the
ri richard, investigators say they feel optimistic, not cautiously optimistic any longer. they say they re optimistic. we know they ve been wrong before. are they overeager or do you think this is really it? i think these men and women choose their words very carefully, wolf. one military man said he s respectfully optimistic. another one says, i mean, listen to angus houston last night. and i think that the way he put it, he will not go that final leg and say, this is the place, until he has seen real hard debris. and he says that because the families deserve the closure and the closure only comes with the certainty. but you have to be there comes a point, i think, when you ve got to say when you vera experts saying it is not it s manmade, it s electronic, it s 1.106, it s in the right
by the australia center based at albatross in new south wales. it is the australian defense forces center of excellence for acoustic analysis. the analysis determined that a very stable, distinct and clear signal was detected at 33.331 kilohertz and that it consistently pulsed at a 1.106 second interval. they, therefore, assess the transmission was not of natural origin and was likely sourced from specific electronic equipment. they believe the signals to be consistent with the specification and description of a flight data recorder.
