inquiry, in order for it to go down to here it has to cross the indonesia air space and go across singapore, which is one of the busiest air spaces in the world. why wouldn t it have been picked up? you re the only person i have heard that cast doubt on the computer input inflight before the good-bye, why do you put doubt on that? again, only because i am familiar with the way the systems work. and once again like with many of these scenarios we don t have enough pieces of the jig saw to put enough together to be able to paint a picture. so we hear about people knowing that some sort of information has been put into the flight navigation system but we don t know what or if it was put in the roots or not. there could be plenty of information we re going to ask the experts later. he will be here with the big board and taking your questions on tour @seanhannity.
cockpit? you know a lot about signaling and correct standards used. apparently it was all right, good night. there have been some reports that would have been roger and out. if you listen to air traffic control radio, you fly from new york to chicago, you ll be talking to new york controllers at some point they ll hand you off to cleveland center. the way it will go, the new york controller will say, malaysia 123 contact cleveland at 126.5 and usually something like good day or have a great day or thanks, be well. when you get into the zone talking about this stuff, lester. that was not unusual. what s unusual is that this is said, the point between malaysia and vietnam, which is not a no man s land but a handoff point and these things are disabled around the same time. explain the significance of that. they carefully chose a spot between air spaces, right to bring this all down. there s a handoff point where you re going out of malaysian coverage or going into vietnam s cove
no word on whether that is a fundraising campaign to pay for what could be a very expensive trip from russia. moscow to venezuela is 6,000 miles by air, unless the plane is diverted by the united states and its allies who could deny access to their air spaces. that is what france and portugal did because of the mere suspicion that edward snowden might be on board. and that plane was then forced to land in austria. scheduling a trip could cost over $80,000. and the private jet company could lose the right to operate in the united states after transporting the known fugitive. joining me now, known criminal defense lawyer douglas mcnabb, and the foreign affairs analyst, steve clemens. steve, do you have any sense of what the wikileaks tweet means for tomorrow? i mean, it says the flight of

attacks is these are after all open air spaces for the most part. and it s difficult for the u.s. military to simply scramble jets and put them in the air, and then according to officials here then do what? this area of course according to officials here is obviously going to be declared off limits in terms of any air traffic. but right now, officials here at the pentagon are simply scrambling to find out first what happened and what potential reaction the u.s. military could provide in terms of protection. possible further protection against any further potential attacks. and, mik, it s important to note that if these planes were hijacked, carrying passengers, there isn t much that military officials could have done. you can t shoot down a plane like that for risk of the people onboard. plus, for the injuries you could cause on the ground in a place like manhattan.
