kilometers out to the southwest is something else again and reported to be rain, poor visibility and we ve only got about two hours when they get out there to search before they have to return because of the fuel range of the aircraft. michael schmidt, what are you hearing about cooperation now? obviously the united states and australia, they cooperate tremendously, but with other countries right now, what are you hearing? well, a lot was made in the initial week that there wasn t a lot of cooperation, but as we sort of look back on it, what seems to have happened was just the fog of this thing, the initialness, that the malaysians were caught flat-footed and they really weren t sure what to do. now we see cooperation with the united states that the u.s. is pretty happy about, but it took two weeks. the question is what was lost in that period of time up until now? are there clues that they could have found about the pilot there or is it stuff related to the search that could have
