>> the financial crisis may being over but some aspects of our financial lives may never be the same. we'll look at how the new normal economy is altering your job prospects. how it's affecting what you live. i'll also tell you about the best ways to adapt. i'm ali velshi and this is "real money." airport in synch por, an indonesia n spokesperson said the
10:01 am
plane was at sea. search and rescue operationss are underway. submitted flight plan route and was requesting deviation due to on-route weather before communication with the aircraft was lost while i.t. was still under control of the indonesian air traffic control. the aircraft had undergone its last scheduled maintenance on the 16th of november 2014. aviation analyst jerry surjatsin poor. >> from the satellite images the weather where it disappeared is nod not clear. it's pretty bad weather but not the worst we have seen. that justifies crew of the aircraft to ask for deviations. that could explain what the officials have said in terms of
10:02 am
they asked for an unusual route. in aviation terms it merely means they asked for a slight deviation from their normal route due to weather. the other thing we heard the aircraft asked to change its altitude. based on that scan information at the moment we can just say that we know that the weather did affect how they decided what to do with their fight but whether that brought down the plane we don't know yet. >> stay with al jazeera for developments on this story. we will bring you the latest as we get it but let's move on to some of our other top stories now. >> the air force and navy had their orders. we deploy the fullest extent of our resources to find the missing aircraft. there's little information. the plane lost contact after it flew over the java sea.
10:03 am
the pilot had requested to change course because of bad weather. this is first major incident for the low-cost carrier whose parent company in malaysia has significant presence. but it trails two other tragedies earlier this year. mh370 disappeared on a flight from kuala lumpur to beijing. that plane was never found. then in july mh 17 from amsterdam was shot down. >> joining us now veronica. so the search and rescue operation suspended for the night. what's happened with the anxious
10:04 am
families of the passengers who have been waiting at the airport for many, many hours? >> you can hear the airplanes going on behind me so forgive me if you can't hear that well. i'll try and speak up a little bit, clearly. but the relatives we have been told who turned up here and registered with airport authorities, there were 47 of them, and they said that they were related to 57 passengers on the missing plane. they have all left, the relatives holding area that was provided for them by the aviation authorities. while they were here throughout the day they were provided with counselors with various officials from government departments including indonesian officials from the agency here in singapore now they have all left and 16 of them have taken up transport offers to surabaya.
10:05 am
the rest have continued the grim wait until daylight comes again and the search continues. >> right. and any indication veronica from the officials there where the search and rescue operation may once daylight breaks, what areas they will be focusing on once they resume the operation? >> no, we haven't heard that from the authorities here in singapore, they're really leaving that kind of information to the indonesian officials. they though are saying that they will help in what has now become a massive international rescue operation. they already sent a c-130 transport plane from here. they're going to be sending two more planes in the morning. it's 11:00 right now. at dawn in about seven hours' time. their area is concentrated not too far away from singapore
10:06 am
city-state itself. so that's why singaporeans have got involved and the australians have got involved. there was one singaporean national on board the plane. that has now been announced publicly as being a two-year-old girl who was traveling with her father who was the only u.k. national on board. the mother was singaporean. she has been contacted as well as the grandparents and they were here throughout the day as well. we have not got any further information about that. got to understand at this point the officials want to manage the situation, they want to protect the families. as you can understand. >> thank you veronica ped prius ped
10:07 am
royce. rosa. >> the area has been experiencing some severe weather recently. could the weather be a factor? >> we like to think the airlines are immune to these sorts of situations but that isn't the case. looks likely that's the case. satellite imagery, this area of clouds that have been running across the area. what i've got here is a pretty complicated report. it's a weather balloon report, up to 60, 70,000 feet and records the temperature and humidity all the way up. from shanghai the air was saturated all the way up. this was a solid wall of cloud
10:08 am
which went up through the region and as a result we've got a risk of potentially very severe icing. as we look at the sequence of satellite imagery we have got clouds and pretty much intense. clouds associated with this sort of weather clouds up top hit by lightning that's not big deal. turbulence is a part of it as well. don't want to get passengers shaking around violently. icing is one of the major factors here. clouds to over 50,000 feet, no going round them, no going over them. there was a request to go from 30,000 to 50,000 feet. we've got a tropical storm philippines, why is he going to the philippines for? in actual fact, this system is going to cut off the supply of moisture. obviously the search and rescue which is getting underway.
10:09 am
so that goes around the south china sea the first of january. we lose the supply of moisture in from the northeast, in the meantime, because we're going to get some very very intense rainfall across the region again, the search and rescue operation is going to run into problems associated like the that. terrible over the philippines certainly get some flooding but that rain will certainly begin to ease into tuesday and wednesday but even then, pretty severe weather conditions across a good part of this region. >> thank you very much indeed. richard. keith mckee airline captain joins us via skype in orlando florida, thank you very much for your time. this is a modern passenger plane and as richard says, we get a senseth they can fly through
10:10 am
anything. can this particular aircraft, airbus 320 can it still be affected by bad weather? >> yes, any aircraft can be affected by bad weather. usually there are other circumstances that can complicate the situation rather than just being a weather situation. for example, if we had a problem with the anti-icing system on the aircraft could be that we would be getting extraneous and erroneous information. that could lead the aircraft astray. is a-320 is a very modern aircraft, it operates by computers. the aircraft are fly-by-wire rather than conventional control as used in the boeing 737. these could be affected by icing that might send erroneous information to the computers. >> the pilot was said to have
10:11 am
requested change in altitude from 32,000 feet to 42,000 feet to avoid clouds, would this be enough to make sure the plane was outside the danger zone? >> it's very difficult to tell. the clouds can go further than the aircraft is capable of climbing. the pilots can't always climb out of the weather. perhaps some other reason, turbulence, he wanted to change altitudes. we just don't know. >> what is your experience in flying in these conditions, what's it like? >> it's not an unusual situation at all to go through areas of thunderstorms. we have radar we can normally easily avoid the thunderstorms by taking a route that takes us around the most severe parts. and we know that he had modified
10:12 am
his flight route. >> right. >> and looking at the radar presumably the reason was because of the bad weather. >> officials have said that no distress calls came from the plane itself. is that common? wouldn't the pilots have issued a mayday call if there was an emergency on board the aircraft? >> well, there's really nothing the people on the ground can do. the pilots have to take care of the situations themselves. and other than advising the ground of what is going on there's no way that the ground is going to really be able to help the pielt very pilot very much. >> thank you very much, keith mckee, an aviation safety consultant joining us by skype from orlando. the center of the world's news hour, one man is dead and two others are missing after their turkish registered merchant ship sunk off the coat,

10:17 am
mission, the fighting is not over. it is in the hands of the afghan security forces and for them it's been the worst year ever. more than 4600 soldiers and police have been killed and thousands wounded. casualties are so high because the afghan troops don't have the nato support they used to. >> everything, we are limited we have a lot of challenges and the biggest challenge is air force, isr intelligence assets, but we have enough to work on it. >> reporter: the nato withdrawal has allowed al qaeda to reestablish are training bases in kunar province and in other areas of the provinces. >> insurgency can only be overcome by what president ghani has laid out in the future.

>> the country relies heavily on foreign aid and there's still no cabinet three months after the new president took office. nato says its mission is a success. but the gains of the past 13 years could be reversed. jennifer glasse, al jazeera kabul. >> while nato's mission in afghanistan has cost the utle more thanunitedstates more than $3 trillion, there are more than 20,000 civilian deaths recorded by the u.n. since 2009, 3500 foreign soldiers and 4,000 foreign troops have also been killed. president barack obama has approved a wider role for his soldiers but the afghan government hasn't confirmed any agreements. >> well, i think we should not comment on speculation but what is clear at our hand is the exat mission which is going to be the
10:19 am
responsibility of the afghan forces. and of course, air support are providing support to the afghan forces. especially support is a crucial matter but according to the agreements and according to the new mission of nato they will only be admitted to advise and assist. again i underscore the to the end of the afghan period. >> generalham i.d. pageneral hamed pagari, despite the death iran says its forces are not involved in active military duty in iraq. >> now u.s. led forces have targeted i.s.i.l. forces with eight air strikes in syria and five in iraq.

10:29 am
governments are directly involved. governments that appear to regard journalists as necessary collateral damage in the pursuit of political ends. and the thousands of reporters who have been imprisoned around the world are testament to the fact that in many cases suppression of the media is a matter of law not mere chance. but over the past year the rise of nonnation actors, the militant groups that will use any means to secure an ideologic or religious end chips to barter or to be barbarically disposed of. yet the powers of those who seek to shine lights on events remain undiminished. luke somers burns brightly after

10:41 am
