10:02 pm
debris left behind the pilot sent out a distress signal and then just six minutes off to take off the plane hit the ground in nairobi kenya people gathered to wait for flight three zero to survive but it never landed. at first there was confusion. and complaints about the lack of information. everyone was asking probing was what his company but normal seeing and you're just going up and down until one of the passengers small and sees me plainly if you just think just a crush. that is a baby ate the idea as the afternoon wore on a sickening realize i should say the infant passengers loved ones. those who departed there this morning were never coming home. today is a very soft and tragic day for all of us at least it
10:03 pm
wasn't just whoever the border. investigators are at the crash site just outside the city there trying to determine causes the key question how could a plane with over one hundred fifty passengers and crew go down on such a clear sunny day. our east africa correspondent melanie corrida balls and business update from the kenyan capital nairobi where the plane was supposed to arrive this morning. hundreds of people gathered today outside the airport here in nairobi where the plane was supposed to arrive at ten thirty in the morning family friends and colleagues had been waiting for their loved ones and would then attended to in emergency centers at the airport it's also been an outpouring of messages of condolence on social media and you can really tell that the entire country is mourning kenya has in fact the highest number of casualties thirty two kenyans one boarded the plane and now everyone here is of course asking what
10:04 pm
happened a lot of things still very unclear but we do know that the plane crashed just six minutes after takeoff we know that the pilot had sent out a distress signal that he asked for permission to return to the capital which he was granted but the plane never made it back. is regarded as a very reliable and safe not only in africa but across the globe but a lot of people are now wondering if in fact something could have been wrong with the model itself the boeing seven thirty seven eight max it's a brand new model that the airline had just board four months ago it's only been delivered three hundred times weld wide but still it's the second time that a plane of this type of this model has crashed the last crash happened last year in indonesia but of course there is no way of telling yet who or what is to plane for the tragedy. has more on the plane crash and you know what can you
10:05 pm
tell us about the reaction by the u.s. company boeing which is of course the manufacturer how they responded they released a statement today sending their condolences they said they are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of the passengers and the crew on ethiopian airlines flight three hundred to a seven thirty seven max eight airplane they say their sympathies and they also announced later on in the day that they would be sending a crew of technicians. to the cleanup side to help with the investigation of course investigators at this point want to find out what caused the crash and boeing could help determine if it was a problem with the plane what can you tell us about this plane and its specifics the seven thirty seven max is a seven thirty seven max eight so there's a few different kinds seven through ten it's a very new generation plane just came out in two thousand seven hundred something that boeing is very proud of it is pushing it supposed to be more fuel efficient and more technologically advanced than the older generation of seven thirty seven's
10:06 pm
but it has been under intense scrutiny recently because this is the second time it is a been involved in a major plane crash in just six months and for such a new plane that's pretty shocking of course i'm referring to the flight the lion air flight of the cousin in the news that went down killing one hundred eighty nine passengers and what happened in this plane crash early investigation show that it was probably a malfunction of an automated software that interpret the plane the the software believe that the plane descending when it wasn't forced the nose down and the pilot was unable to pull back up now there's no link between that crash and what happened today there is no evidence of those or associated but of course investigators are looking for but just to understand can you tell us how boeing addressed to the lion air crash boeing has claimed that the seven thirty seven max series is just as safe as any plane in the sky right now they said that if pilots follow the standard procedure the checklist then they can compensate for any malfunction of the
10:07 pm
software but there was controversy because the software was announced a pilot pilots have since then been calling for trainings the boeing resisted that saying that they recommended no training for pilots because they said that the thirty seven thirty seven x. is so similar to the old generation that they shouldn't have to spend money on retraining of course if there is a link between the indonesia crash and then this one this will become a very big story and are there. or will there be a lot of these planes flying in the skies right now there's about three hundred fifty operated by airlines all around the world actually southwest airlines in the u.s. is the biggest buyer you also have american airlines ryanair but three hundred fifty is not that much just represents about two percent of bones entire fleet but it represents eighty percent of those planes that boeing is actually making for airlines so it is becoming more popular this is kind of the future of boeing's mid-range flight and if this if there is a link between the software malfunction then they might have
