rescue operations going on all of the morning and of course no one survived in the end people here just do not know what to think the authorities are trying to give them as many details as they can but they just don't have any all the information that we can bring lie on this from lines themselves and of course you have the minister just now speaking out that he is trying to send people that they are trying to do everything that they can in order to find out more and to support the ethiopian authorities but at the end of the day we will just have to wait. a correspondent. thank you very much. d. to be used has been looking into the plane involved in this crash he joins us from our i mean so this plane we know it was manufactured by boeing first of what is boeing saying right now well boeing issued a statement today giving their condolences to the families they said boeing is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of the passengers and crew on ethiopian

airlines flight three zero to a seven thirty seven eight airplane the extent of their sympathies and they also offered help with any technical issues that will happen after. specifically investigation into what caused. this crash which there's no information about this and here we see that statement as you said they're from boeing what about this specific plane we said it's a seven thirty seven max what do we know about it well this plane is almost brand new it came out in two thousand and seventeen it's supposed to be more fuel efficient but it has been involved in two deadly crashes since it was released early one being just at the end of october the india the lion air crash in just off the coast of indonesia that killed one hundred eighty nine passengers and initial investigation into the cause of the crash showed that it could have been linked to a malfunction of an anti stall system that was not announced to the pilots so what could have happened was that the plane was information from the computer

system show that the plane was going into an ascent when it wasn't and forced the nose to come down there's no information about whether or not this happened this error happened in any other planes seven thirty seven max but people are obviously asking those questions now very troubling indeed what did boeing say after that first crash to lie in air crash well they issued a software update but there was a controversy because of pilot training is now pilot training is a very expensive and often when a new plane has a new software in it they won't train new pilots because as boeing said and this is been there fisher. pilots should be able to deal with any kind of. should be able to override a plane system if something is going wrong this isn't standard training for a long time but questions are now rising whether or not this error is something that is causing too much of a risk that pilots should not have to deal with their controversies still lingering

remember this is only five months ago the plane went down some best occasions are still ongoing into the plane crash in indonesia you know we of course have to see what exactly happened in this incident but how many of these planes are out there how common is the boeing max right now it only accounts for about two percent of boeing's fleet but that's because it's a new plane so if you look at how many undelivered new planes there are in boeing's stock it accounts for about eighty percent of those undelivered plane so basically what boeing is saying is that this is the plane that the banking on this is going to be the future of boeing again no information about whether or not this error is related to this more recent crash today but if this does become an issue it could really set back boeing all right to look into this aspect of the story for us thank you so much. now to some other stories from around the world after three days with a lot of without electricity power is reportedly returning to parts of venezuela
