About this full day of searching . Reporter all of those questions still unanswered at this hour, christine, frustrating for everyone. Not the least the families, of course. Youre right, we usually start hearing from the authorities leading the search around about now. Anytime now, it could be it could be two or three hours. So its an enact timing, really. Depending on what theyve got to say. The big equivalent search so far today, 12 aircraft, as you say, in the air today, there are five ships in the search zone. Thats critical, because they need ships there. They need people actually looking across the surface of the sea. Theres the australian mobile vessel there. Three Chinese Naval vessels there, icebreaker. Four chien naes for a total there. This is critical. Theyve been going out all day. Theyve had eyes on that zone for hours now. If you look at the map of what theyre looking for, if you look at the flight path, the last known flight path of mh370, they are looking a few hundred
Partial hand shake theyre calling it. Weve had six pings where they know the plane tried to connect to the satellite, and we know they were confirmed. And then there was the seventh, the partial ping. They couldnt say, and they were quite open about it, they couldnt say why, and they couldnt say the significance of it.

The significance, this is the plane, because its a ping not coming from the ground station that way, its the plane to the ground station, and this they believe is very significant or will be in honing down exactly where the plane was, becau
Were not searching for a needle in a haystack, were still trying to define where the haystack is. Thats how australias defense minister describes the search for flight 370 in the remote indian ocean. Want to bring you cnns saima mohsin from kuala lumpur and will riply in perth where planes are getting ready to take off, we hope. Saima, first to you. What can you tell us about this socalled International Working group, a group that the malaysian government is now forming to help narrow the search area . Whats involved here . Reporter well, wolf, that still remains a mystery. Thats all theyve told us so far. As you know, we get very Little Information in these press conferences, which is amounting to a lot of frustration for a lot of people, including us trying to report this story.

Connect again at 8 19. This would suggest the plane stayed in the air longer, potentially making already massive search area even larger. Thats the significance. The other breaking news, a high tech navy sense or for picking up pings from the planes black boxes landed in perth a short time ago but will take several sailing days to get into position and cant do its job until the debris field itself is located. I heard it described earlier today were not trying to find the needle in the haystack trying to find the haystack. Were trying to find the farm the haystacks on right now. That search is erased with the pingers only good for about another 13 days and the weather changing daily.
