also seeks big cuts to nondefense spending. for an airplane manufacturer one crash is one crash too many but when the same model goes down twice in less than half a year filled with passengers and when that model happens to be your best selling one and when china grounds all of them well then you have boeing to not where the cost of keeping it's seven thirty seven work course cash cow model in the air suddenly looks astronomically high i'm brant gulf and berlin this is the day. it is a place we will take with the ramps from. the pilots we have a new type of aircraft that would have two accidents with a seemingly similar set of circumstances we have grounded all in. point

coming out from its tail and then it tried to lift its nose but it couldn't was going from side to side it went straight into the ground nose first then exploded. but they could. look there were a lot of kenyans on it i saw identification documents of a university student from america could i mean i saw pictures of ethiopians and chinese people at the university i mean to get out of our lives. in new york the united nations flag has been flying at half mast among the dead are twenty one united nations staff. a global treasure the as it's close to home and the united nations is united in grief. i extend my deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of all the victims to the government of people of each. and o. these affected by these these are so. he theo be an authority as are leading the search
1:07 am
aided by the u.s. kenya and others. the airline has announced its grounding at seven thirty seven max fleet and other countries are following suit the same boeing model crashed just five months ago in indonesia. as investigators look into the airplane's flight recorders people around the world are hoping for answers to why their loved ones didn't make it home. and for more on this now i'd like to bring in aviation commentator julian brady joins us tonight from cambridge in the u.k. mr bray it's good to have you on the show the boeing seven thirty seven max eight version it be is considered the work course for many airlines and it's already received a lot of attention let me ask you would we be this concerned if we were looking at two crashes involving a different model or an air bus manufacturer aircraft i mean is there something special about the about what we're looking at with this boeing seven thirty seven
1:08 am
max. it's very interesting question because this particular aircraft was actually breaking all the rules. in theory should be able to fly too few changes right at the front of the aircraft well away from the wings not slung on to the thought wing was long in the front of the wing and so that means that the weight of the aircraft is totally different to any other aircraft and this is where the say that it comes in all the computer becomes it because they installed a secret system called the m c a s and this was actually to prevent stalling when it's nice it's lies in a stall position so this secret computer system to make sure that the aircraft is level so the pilot can slice it now really it should be called a stall cheat system because the point is that no aircraft but this configuration
1:09 am
should be and they have. what do you make of the federal aviation administration's announcement this evening that this model remains airworthy we've got that one side on the other side of the planet we've got china and indonesia they grounded their entire fleet. yes in fact it's worse than that because china is now saying that there should be no. sawing chinese airspace they put a blanket ban on it and so it is a difficulty now yes i think it's just the final straw right do you think it's justified by china to to put that blanket ban on the model. but you've got to remember that buying out should play they actually assemble these aircraft in china they got a zero tolerance policy when it comes to and line safety and so they've said for
1:10 am
the moment we will ground this aircraft to we find out what the size got the apne and a lot of criticism because in the early days boeing didn't actually tell the pilots at this particular system was on board is called an m c a s which is a. patient system basically they didn't want to load the pilots up with too much information they gave me enough so they could out to fly the aircraft effectively but then spirit said now this is not right we need to know exactly what is on board this aircraft and so. the if you like the detail of these systems was actually rolled out this is a fly by wire cross so it is a sears a computer systems that's actually flying it if one system falls and then another system is supposed to come in and pick it up and then obviously it did not happen in these two crashes if it turns out that we're talking about
1:11 am
a software problem here is that is that good news or bad news for boeing i mean how easily can you correct it in order to keep this huge fleet all of these orders you know from being cancelled. well this is a problem because you got cross and then you've got marketing and you really have to ask yourself whether the mocking people i see much power should reason the other way that mock seeing troops in to the actual aircraft design and rolled out so really what you call to decide is whether you're actually going to go to these wonderful marketing opportunities or whether you're going to make sure that the product you release is actually fully tested and ready for the market does see that this thing isn't quite right now i have to say this is speculation yes they sounded like but they have not decoded them yet so we don't know once they can do that then
1:12 am
we will find out exactly what happened on board that aircraft well you say that the chinese have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to. aircraft crashing anything like that but the f.a.a. in the united states says these planes can still fly m m i reading you correctly are you saying that the chinese more than the americans tonight are erring on the side of caution. let's put it light is there's seven airlines in china and they've got about ninety four of these planes and it is also needs a decision if they've got nightfall planes are that not too sure about the planes they want some ounces they want to quickly and the quickest way to get the answers is to say right well ground the whole logs get the engineers and get the eggs in and let us find out exactly what happens now first of all they've got of my bosses
1:13 am
cell decoders that will be useful the only thing is this went as a five it drilled it into the subsoil and this was a descent straight into the soil so to future engines were going all the time so really they must find out what is happening because you cannot carry passengers you cannot in danger passengers and crew you've got to find out what is the problem with this aircraft and certainly there is a problem having said that norwegian i quite happily being sliding these aircraft also no problems at all so it is a real and they. almost. a mystery we certainly appreciate your valuable insights tonight thank you. britain's briggs destiny could very well be decided this week or maybe not
1:14 am
beginning tomorrow members of parliament will vote on a series of questions about the u.k.'s departure from the european union on tuesday lawmakers were once again but yes or no to the withdrawal plan negotiated by prime minister to resign may now keep in mind lawmakers rejected it two months ago in an unprecedented defeat for a sitting prime minister in the commons a repeat is expected tomorrow or wednesday lawmakers will then be asked to say yes or no to the possibility of a no deal bracks it parliament is expected to say no to no deal and that would bring this to thursday when parliament is scheduled to vote yes or no to a delay of breck's it and that vote is expected to pass remember in only eighteen days the u.k. is scheduled to begin exiting the european union and we still don't have a deal some call all of this kicking the brits it can down the road others claim it's all happening according to recent days planned there is no vote scheduled on
1:15 am
those suspicions at least not yet. we are committed to ratifying. before the thinking ninth of march it is no for the house of commons to take any important set of decisions this week so mari they'll be in parliament m.p.'s can put that alternative idea is there. arrangements in place they were they when they can. concessions and additions to the deal but ultimately the trees are made deal will be voted on and the debate is by how much they will lose and that will determine whether or not to his mates who can survive whether or not he can attend one more time to put the deal back into the house of commons reason i need fact that her approach is not. as prime minister she needs to show her leadership and reset the debate if it's defeated by a mixture of hard right people us getting people on the left on the left wings of
1:16 am
the labor party that is going to be the end of a deal probably and i mean that a new sort of arrangements got to be negotiated with the european union and if she won't find a way forward then parliament has a responsibility to do so instead things like no deal things i currently exist as options and when you get rid of those options then that makes other things like a referendum or a softer grex it a lot more likely and we hear of the commission remain open and willing to meet negotiators at any time and those are the voices on the eve of these very important votes by the way british prime minister theresa may she spent part of this monday not in the u.k. but rather in strasbourg france seat of the european parliament a last minute meeting on the continent before her parliamentarians in london to move away or not to move at all from the cot politically that.

1:20 am
a rare and shocking act of violence here in germany which has seen only three school mass shootings since the one nine hundred sixty s. three well a decade later relatives and survivors of winnenden still bear the emotional scars many of them are calling for tighter gun control. visiting the place where her daughter was gunned down ten years ago is still incredibly difficult for gisela meyer the day she heard the news of her daughter's death in the. school her life changed forever. if my world just fell apart it pulled the ground out from under my feet i absolutely couldn't grasp what happened it took months for my to understand that she was done i kept resisting the very thought of it. that. her daughter nina was one of fifteen victims that a gunman shot at the school and during his askin she was
1:21 am
a student teacher in the school and buried under twenty fifth birthday. the seventeen year old shooter had stolen his father's gun from an unlocked bedroom cabinet in the end he killed himself. today this memorial room pays tribute to those who lost their lives in this former classroom the gunman shot the students at random. gisela meyers active in the against violence in schools foundation to prevent such acts from ever happening again. one small step forward is stricter laws on private individuals storing firearms. trauma counselor i'll bet b. singer was one of the first on the scene after the shooting he helps students who had lived through the horrific experience process their emotions. i try to talk with them so they could process what they went through. leading the mother to
1:22 am
that's a principle of trauma counseling has is also encourage people to express their feelings can because it's far more harmful to suppress someone from let them cry and scream if they need to i think it was my image by him in the decade since the shootings security measures in the school have been stepped up doors are more difficult to open from the outside and teachers try to identify challenging students early on. the mission for example we have a school social worker who is deeply involved in the school we have a project name but social cohesion with and getting along with other. relatives of the victims try somehow to go on with their lives. meyer has finally managed to find some inner peace. to top this point child the shooter came across as a monster but he was really just a young boy full of the hate because he didn't have the life that other said that image of him really helps me understand what made him commit such an evil. spirit
1:23 am
and. to start. this memorial called the broken ring symbolizes the suffering in winnenden a brutal cut a contemplate of place and the shadow of a fateful day. like sam's through the hourglass so when is the second most consumed natural resource on the planet it's not just for beaches and making glass anymore urban demand especially in china has led to illegal sand mining and sparked a global wave of gang violence. melanie cure of the ball takes us to kenya now we're and you see the sandy business is pitting people against each other. it's a walk across this god landscape which. called home this used to be a river carrying drinking water for the community and then nights dug in much tacos

1:25 am
washing clothes for drinking this water is bad and we sometimes catch diseases like typhoid. all over the country illegal sand harvesting is taking place in broad daylight the driver of this truck doesn't want to be filmed but tells us up to two hundred truckloads of sand are collected each day the illicit sand business is a lucrative one just not for the people in the communities where the sand is mind on the small group of sandy this cashes in on the sales where the people of much of course are divided between those who depend on the little money and from harvesting and those desperate to save the last puddles of water in the area but no matter which side they're on both groups suffer the dangerous and by mental and human cost of the data you send industries underbelly. many lives have been ruined or lost due to kenya sandra this is a thirty six year old farmer who lost her husband

1:27 am
a tragedy that men like matthew are being used by the cut tells and have become complicit in destroying the livelihoods of their communities he's asking politicians and police to find these stand up to those stealing much like a sand so that hopefully one day its residents can recover. well the day is almost over the conversation continues online or find us on twitter either at the news or you can follow me of britain don't forget to use the hash tag today join us tomorrow for complete coverage of the first of what is expected to be three days of bricks in the u.k. parliament every member whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day everybody.
