largest carrier and has turned out as into the gateway to africa. and. as of yesterday we have grounded own. the seven three seven eight marks fleet. pretending which was involved in yesterday's accident. precaution safety measure. but this does not move that. incident was related to. these defects on this specific fleet but we have taken these as an extra safety precaution. so that. the remaining. continue. following this story and we've also got our reporter joy doreen barrow with us from the kenyan capital nairobi where that plane was headed joy ethiopian is

a big boeing customer doesn't have a whole lot of orders on the way. yes indeed it does and the plane that crashed was only four lines all of it it was deliberate in nov twenty eighth but before that they had received a fast lamine july twenty eighteen and if you know the website or boeing you'd also indicates that if european airlines was expecting twenty eight. jets over a similar model coming in to be absolutely yes they actually had a launch treaty eight planes that they were expecting to come into ethiopia ok back to you in a minute joy first christophe is anyone going to want to get on one of these flights people are starting to have second thoughts here ben if they're scheduled to travel on a seven three seven max and there's one incident that i found particularly interesting regarding southwest airlines in the united states which is a carrier that has the most seven for seven mex planes in it's the thirty four is
5:48 pm
the number so a customer said that she was uncomfortable flying on a seventy seven x. with southwest airlines and she asked that you'd like to switch to a different plane well southwest said ok we understand your concern no problem they read a book to her whereas a travel companion of that very same woman she wrote on twitter call the airline just minutes later having the same request and they denied it and it shows the dilemma of carriers because grounding these planes but equally if they're a big part of your fleet is a heavy decision to take and if airlines canceling their orders this is going to turn into a disaster i mean it's too early to determine that but boeing is sticking to its product is there anything else i can do very little to be honest at the at this stage of the. events that were in at the moment a link between the crash of the lion air flight you mentioned in october also conducted on i seventy seven next and the one that happened yesterday has not been

actually have seven three seven jets and all go up reports indicate that they were planning and b. are still planning to how to crash some of them those i'm not really definite but as a country the country has the ground and the center and our mosques jets now flying is sometimes the only way of getting around the continent and this crash that has two years of relative calm in african skies what are the ramifications. well similar care on occasions are that of course the families friends and employers of fools killed in that crash will likely sometime but then there's also the fact that if you've been airlines is likely to how a number of illegal. you know cases going on oh and from the families of those who have been killed in the crash and then there are likely also legal wrangling between the manufacturer and themselves in trying to figure out what exactly

happened but then we're also likely to see that wasn't your trust is going to go down just a little which could affect the cells for you in your lines but not much review on the holes in the economy if you. use correspondent in nairobi joy doreen thank you very much for joining us and christopher thank you very much for your expertise thought more than half of all kenyans in urban areas live in on planned settlements the country is home to one of africa's largest slums robi's kibera as a population of around a quarter of a million for most of its residents access to running water and proper sanitation remains a luxury. not a job for the faint hearted as a frogger trickle sunda empties pit latrines in kibera electrons were dug in the nairobi slum to help deal with the lack of toilets which left residents deaf and caning into plastic bags and hurling them from their doors while pit latrines
