[ woman ] i ve always tried to see things from the best angle i could. it s how i look at life. especially now that i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. i was taking warfarin but wondered, could i focus on something better? my doctor told me about eliquis for three important reasons. one, in a clinical trial eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin.
they re parts abdul knows very well. measuring 88 parameters, which is the most ever. reporter: he s the ceo of a company in ft. lauderdale that buys commercial planes, then refurbishes and sells the parts. right now they re pull eight part this boeing 777 flown by malaysia airlines, the same make and model as flight 370. this cockpit recorder is identical to the one that could tell investigators why and how mh-370 disappeared. they consist of three parts. you ve got the element which records and the power unit in the back. reporter: and the underwater beacon. there is a sensor on the sides here that are activated by water. and once those are activated they will send out a ping signal that will be picked up by tracking devices that will look for these specific pings. reporter: in just a week and a half, that ping will likely go
keep getting this contradictory information. all the way along, this information has been at odds with each other. but now it appears that maybe it was some kind of catastrophic event. so maybe now we re getting a clearer idea, but everyone keeps saying we will not know for certain until we foot the cockpit recorder. it s all speculation, but for the pilots particularly, the focus was very intention on their intent. and all the time the search continues and the weather, as we heard from andrew stevens a short time ago, playing a big factor in all of this. i know you ve been tracking it. how bad is it going to get? it s going to be the worst storm we ve seen since the search was narrowed down to this region.
was there a depressurization event in the plane? does people in the plane have oxygen or deprived of oxygen? we will know that for the entire flight from malaysian down into the south indian ocean and what was the trim of the aircraft? what were the flaps like? what was the setting with the wings and tail, all of that information. speed, altitude, everything you can imagine. fuel consumption. will all be inside the flight data recorder. the voice cockpit recorder, it records what happens in the cockpit we expect will be recorded over because it two hour loops and the last conversation in the cockpit we believe that may have mattered was of course the one over the gulf of thailand eight hours before this plane would have gone into the water. so they are really going to be focusing on very much the flight data recorder. before they can find this black box they ve got to hear the pinger, pinger going off and hopefully that will be heard by sonar.
