FORECAST
FORECAST MODEL. >>> NOW TO THE LATEST ABOUT THE
STOLEN
STOLEN PLANE FROM SEATAC AIRPORT.
AIRPORT.
AIRPORT. WORKERS CONTINUED THE CLEANUP
ON KETRON ISLAND.
THE THEFT OF THAT AIRPLANE OUT
OF SEATAC IS LEADING US TO
BELIEVE THAT IT COULD BE MORE
DANGEROUS THAN WE THOUGHT.
>> HE CUT IN FRONT OF IT -- A
DELTA JET TO TAXI TO THE RUNWAY.
LYNN FARLEY HAS BEEN ON THE
STORY FROM THE VERY BEGINNING
AND HAS TODAY'S NEW
DEVELOPMENTS.
DEVELOPMENTS. >> YOU HAVE A TRANSMISSION
INVOLVING ANOTHER PILOT THAT SO
HIM IN THE PLANE.
>> IT IS HARD TO HEAR BUT YOU
WILL HEAR AND SEE IT SPELLED
OUT HERE.
OUT HERE.
OUT HERE. AS ALL OF THIS WAS UNFOLDING
THE IDEA OF A COLLISION AT
SEATAC, THE NINTH BUSIEST
AIRPORT IN THE COUNTRY AND
EVERYTHING AROUND A MAJOR
AIRPORT IS CONTROLLED.
THERE'S GATE CONTROL AND GROUND
CONTROL AND DIFFERENT CONTROL
IS HANDLING DIFFERENT PHASES OF
THE FLIGHT.
THE FLIGHT. WHEN AN AIRLINE SHOWS UP
SEEMINGLY OUT OF NOWHERE THAT
IS A BIG PROBLEM.
NOW COMES THE JOB OF SORTING
OUT THE DETAILS.
THE FIRST LINE OF SECURITY AT
ANY AIRPORT IS THE PERIMETER.
AT SEATAC EVERYTHING IS ABOUT
SECURITY.
SECURITY.
SECURITY. ANY TRUCK OR VEHICLE THAT
ENTERS THE AIRPORT HAS TO BE
INSPECTED AND CHECKED OUT.
THE NEXT LINE OF DEFENSE IS
THAT ANYBODY THAT WORKS AT THE
AIRPORT LIKE RICHARD RUSSELL BE
VETTED THROUGH CRIMINAL
BACKGROUND CHECKS.
BACKGROUND CHECKS. HE DID NOT HOP THE FENCE HE WAS
ALREADY ON THE INSIDE.
FROM THE TIME HE TURNED THE
PLAY AROUND AND STARTED THE
ENGINES HE WAS CROSSING THE
LINE.
LINE.
LINE. THE
LINE. THE Q 400 WAS ALSO REFERRED TO
AS A -- EIGHT.
>> WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOUR
CALLSIGN.
CALLSIGN.
CALLSIGN. WHO IS THE CHASSIS HOLDING ON
RUNWAY 15 CENTER.
>> Reporter: YOU CAN HEAR THE
CALL A DEMAND FROM AN AIRCRAFT
-- AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLER TO
HAVE HIM IDENTIFY HIMSELF.
>> WHICH CARGO AREA.
ONE OR TWO.
>> THE ONE FURTHER TO THE
NORTH.
NORTH.
NORTH. >>
NORTH. >> Reporter: HOW DID THIS
UNFOLD?
UNFOLD?
UNFOLD? THE KEY TO THAT MAYBE THE VAST
NETWORK OF SECURITY CAMERAS.
THERE ARE CAMERAS ON THE
FENCES, CAMERAS WATCHING YOU
PICK UP THEY ARE ALL FEEDING
INTO AN OPERATION CENTER IN THE
MAIN TERMINAL.
MAIN TERMINAL. >> THIS IS A VERY LARGE REPORT
AND VERY LARGE OPERATING AREA.
>> Reporter: IN 2014 I GAVE YOU
A PEEK INTO THE CAMERAS BOTH
SEEN AND UNSEEN.
THE AIRPORT WILL NOT EVEN
CONFIRM HOW MANY CAMERAS THEY
HAVE BUT IT IS SAID TO BE IN
THE THOUSANDS.
THE THOUSANDS. I COULD GIVE YOU ONLY A CLOSE
UP LOOK AT A FEW OF THEM.
CAMERAS MAY FILL IN THE GAPS IN
THIS STORY BUT THOSE OTHER
LAYERS OF SECURITY INCLUDING
TEAMS WHICH DRIVE THE PERIMETER
ROAD LOOKING FOR OUTSIDE
THREATS TO SEE IF ANYBODY TRIED
TO CUT THROUGH THE FENCE.
RAMP PATROL AND THEIR YELLOW
VEHICLES WATCH OVER OPERATIONS
LOOKING FOR DAMAGING DEBRIS
THAT CAN END UP ON THE RUNWAY
OR TAXIWAYS AS WELL AS INTRUDERS
. ALL IN ADDITION TO PORT OF
SEATTLE POLICE.
SEATTLE POLICE. THE FIRST LINE OF SECURITY IS
THE PERIMETER.
THE PERIMETER. WE KNOW THAT HE PULLED IN FRONT
OF A DELTA FLIGHT AND WE ARE
TOLD BY THE PORT THAT IT WAS
NOT A CLOSE CALL.
IT WAS FAR ENOUGH BUT WE ARE
PRESUMING THAT THESE PLANES
WERE ON THE MOVE AND HE JUST
KIND OF SHOT OUT OF THE CARGO.
>> SO WHEN IT A SECURITY CAMERA
HAVE PICKED UP WHAT HE WAS
DOING?
DOING?
DOING? >>
DOING? >> WE DO NOT HAVE CONFIRMATION
BUT WE WOULD EXPECT THAT THERE
WERE PROBABLY SEVERAL AIM TO
NOT AREA.
NOT AREA.
NOT AREA. IT IS NOT LIKE SOMEBODY SITTING
THERE LOOKING AT ALL 1000+
CAMERAS AT THE SAME TIME.
USUALLY THEY ARE TRIGGERED SO
IF THERE'S AN AREA WHERE YOU
GOING TO SECURE DOOR THE CAMERA
IS TRIGGERED AND THEY CAN POP
UP ON THE SCREEN AND THEY CAN
SEE THAT.
SEE THAT.
SEE THAT. LET'S REMEMBER HE IS IN UNIFORM
AND HE HAS A CARD AND HE HAS --
THAT IS PART OF HIS JOB
ALTHOUGH HE MAY HAVE STAYED
AFTER HIS SHIFT TO GO UP AND DO
THIS.
THIS.
THIS. THAT WILL HAVE TO COME OUT IN
THE INVESTIGATION BUT THAT IS
SOMETHING THAT CAME OUT ON
SATURDAY.
SATURDAY.
SATURDAY. >> SO THE NTSB WE KNOW THAT
FINAL REPORTS TAKE MANY MONTHS.
THERE IS A NEW REPORT OUT.
>> DO NOT GET TOO EXCITED.
EVERY TIME THERE IS BASICALLY A
PRELIMINARY REPORT IT IS A
RESTATEMENT OF THE FACTS.
THERE IS NOTHING IN HERE THAT
WE DO NOT KNOW BUT REMEMBER
THAT IT IS A CRIME.
THE FBI IS THE LEAD AGENCY ON
THIS AND NTSB IS SUPPORT.
>> SO WE WILL EVENTUALLY SEE
TWO REPORTS?
TWO REPORTS? >> WE WILL NOT SEE A FINAL
REPORT FROM THE NTSB.
WE WILL SEE THE FBI REPORT. THE
FLIGHT DATA RECORDER AND
COCKPIT VOICE RECORDER AND WHAT
THE CAMERAS SHOW AND THE
TIMELINE AND THOSE ARE ALL OF
THE
