sabotaged that plane, examining them is still a top priority for investigators. but as one of my sources said i don t think there is any prev l prevailing theory right now. there are counterarguments to every theory. the sense i get from talking to sources is people are still baffled by the plane s di appearance. they certainly are, pam. thanks. our aviation analyst, the former 777 pilot mark weis and cnn aviation analyst peter goulds, former ntsb managing director and senior law enforcement analyst, former fbi assistant director tom fuentes. so, we re going to be speaking shortly with the world editor from usa today on their reporting why they have their sources with malaysian police suggesting that the pilot, not the co-pilot, the pilot may have deliberately diverted the plane for whatever reason. so what are you hearing, tom? you were pretty well plugged into this investigation. i ve been informed by a senior malaysian government official that there has been no information dev
