the plane is designed to be level and controlled and to make a slow descent and we are doing that. now, again, it s a simulator, so of course the engines, it s possible one would flame out after the other. mitchell believes that one engine would compensate automatically for that, right? yeah. we have a compensator in this aircraft, the 777. so yes. in an event of an emergency, i m not sure if you had electrical power if that would happen. but any airplane, big or small, most of the time it s going to be designed to be stable. we re still descending and still level. it s possible that you could wing over and die. miles, what is so the thing about this is that no matter what theory you look at, that investigators are looking at, there are holes in each one. there are questions that can be raised that don t make it
the debris, then they can use it. david, what kind of formal pressure does the chinese government continue to try to exert against malaysia? there has been no love lost in this issue with the plane going down and the chinese, even the official chinese foreign ministry saying they want more evidence, as well. so through the days as this drags on, the chinese state media has put out very pointed editorials, at one point saying the malaysians at best showing a dereliction of duty. that s fed in in some way to this anger shown by the families. certainly, both through their actions in terms of the major assets china is sending for the search, and through their words, they re ratcheting up the pressure on malaysia.

two additional turns. one sends them up to the northwest, the other one sends them down to the south to the area where we re searching. so in the heat of that battle as it were, would they have put in extra waypoints or stored waypoints? even those stored waypoints didn t make any sense or take him to an airport close by. unfortunately that s where this theory tend to fall down. there must have been something else going on. and richard, as you look at the map and you and i were looking at it, it does look as if there s an argument to be made that the plane was perhaps trying to avoid indonesian air space. yes. if you actually look at the map an running the animation now, that turn that miles was talking about to the northwest and then to the south, it s not just a that last turn south appears to avoid indonesian air space dlindli
back to a point you made earlier. it s also possible that even the impact of the plane could have caused this ping? yeah. it s hard to say for sure, of course. but there s any number of scenarios you could come up with that would sort of reactivate that box in some way to have it try to communicate with that satellite. whatever it was it was probably some sort of power surge. what would cause that? i think the first suspect would be the flame out of the engine. that s not going to be the exact spot necessarily where it went down. the other engine would be going for a little while but not much longer. but certainly you talk about trying to find the haystack. that s probably where the haystack is. we re going to be turning to our panel members throughout the hour tonight and live at 11:00 to midnight tonight. let us know what you think. coming up next with heavy indian ocean waves like these subsiding, this is what it has looked like in past years. give you a sense how rough it can
